500kV three-phase double-winding unexcited voltage regulating power transformer
500kV power transformers are the backbone of ultra-high voltage (UHV) transmission systems, responsible for transmitting enormous amounts of power over thousands of kilometers with minimal losses. They connect power plants and regional grid hubs, raising or lowering voltage at critical points in the national energy backbone. Due to their voltage class and capacity—often exceeding 1000MVA—500kV transformers represent the highest standards of electrical, thermal, and mechanical design.
The manufacturing of 500kV transformers involves advanced materials and precision processes. Cold-rolled oriented silicon steel cores, optimized winding structures, and oil-immersed cooling systems (ONAF, OFAF, OFWF) ensure high efficiency and reliable heat dissipation under extreme load conditions. Protection systems such as gas relays, pressure relief valves, and advanced online monitoring (DGA, partial discharge, fiber optic temperature measurement) are standard, safeguarding absolute reliability.
With the global expansion of clean energy and long-distance transmission, 500kV transformers are widely deployed in national backbone grids, inter-regional interconnections, and renewable energy bases. Their performance directly determines the stability of the entire power system, making them one of the most critical assets in modern infrastructure.
