Scope
The standard applies to general-purpose oil-immersed power transformers and autotransformers intended for national economy needs and for use in high-voltage transmission systems at the voltage classes 220 kV, 330 kV, 500 kV and 750 kV. It sets requirements for types and main parameters, technical performance, safety, completeness, acceptance and test methods, marking, packaging, transportation, storage, operation instructions and manufacturer guarantees.
Key topics and requirements
- Definition of types, rated parameters and dimensional limits for transformers and autotransformers in the specified voltage classes.
- Electrical and mechanical technical requirements (insulation, winding, cooling, tap-changer arrangements and ratings).
- Safety requirements for manufacture, handling and operation.
- Acceptance rules and factory test methods, including routine and type tests.
- Requirements for marking, documentation, packaging, transportation and storage.
- Instructions for operation and manufacturer guarantees / warranty conditions.
Typical use and users
Used by power-transformer manufacturers, electrical utilities, substation designers, procurement specialists, testing and certification laboratories, and maintenance teams working with high-voltage transmission equipment in the Russian Federation and CIS countries. Also referenced by equipment suppliers and engineering contractors when designing or specifying 220–750 kV oil-filled transformers.
Related standards
Closely related to other national and international power-transformer standards. Commonly cross-referenced with IEC/ISO documents in the IEC 60076 family (power transformers — general requirements and test codes) and with other GOST/RS standards that cover tests, accuracy, and specific design aspects (examples include references in practice to GOST 11677-85 and the IEC 60076 series).
