CAUTION
Take care to avoid ingestion of moist air when oil is drained. If the ambient air is moist, let
incoming air pass through a dehydrating breather with slow air ow to obtain proper dehy-
dration.
Do not ll oil into the on-load tap-changer if the transformer tank is under vacuum and the
on-load tap-changer is not.
Do not ll oil into the transformer tank if the on-load tap-changer is under vacuum and the
transformer tank is not.
Mounting of gaskets
CAUTION
Sealing surfaces and gaskets must be clean and undamaged. Diametrically opposed bolts
in sealing joints must be tightened alternately several times, beginning with a low tighten-
ing torque and nally with the recommended tightening torque as described in section 1.6
Tightening Torque, in this guide.
After oil lling
CAUTION
Do not energize the transformer earlier than three hours after oil lling in atmospheric pres-
sure. This waiting period is needed to allow airbubbles to disappear.
