REAL TIME ASSESSMENT OF 500-KVA, 11/0.415 KV DISTRIBUTION TRANSFORMER SITUATED AT BELLS UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY, OTA, OGUN STATE USING FLUKE 435 SERIES II

Distribution transformer being major equipment in utility companies deserves to be routinely scrutinized for its performance with a view to ensure continuous supply of energy to end-users as well as to sustain improved revenue collection by the utility company. Presented in this paper is the real t...
