Training - OLTC MR Ecotap

1. The document introduces the Ecotap VPD on-load tap changer by MR for distribution transformers. It has compact design and uses vacuum switching technology. 2. It provides advantages like lower cost compared to alternatives, compact dimensions, and maintenance-free operation. 3. The basic principle of operation involves the Ecotap VPD control comparing output voltage to setpoint and commanding the direct drive unit to raise or lower the switching unit taps accordingly to regulate voltage.

1.What’s Ecotap VPD ?
- Ecotap VPD :
- Compact on-load tap changer by MR, switching unit using vacuum
technology.
- Commonly used for distribution transformer :
- Max voltage = 36kV
- Max step voltage = 825V
- Max through current = 30 A & 100A
- Max Tap position : 9 tap , 17 Tap ( use change over selector)
- Main Part :
- Main body , consist of switching unit & direct drive unit.
- VPD control : act as AVR to control direct drive unit.
- Mounting
- Main body mounted at transformer cover
- VPD control mounted at marshaling kiosk or control room
1.What’s Ecotap VPD ?
- Ecotap Switching unit (a) , Direct drive unit (b)
- Two variant = 30 A & 100 A
- Ecotap VPD control (c) have two variant
- Basic = ECOTAP VPD MD&C
- Pro = ECOTAP VPD CONTROL PRO ( expansion for additional
function)

2.Advantages
- Cost attractive :
- Ecotap have more attractive cost compared to OILTAP or VACUTAP Huaming
- Ecotap cost =~ 30% cheaper than Oiltap Huaming cost
- (Ecotap= 10200 eur , Huaming = 16500 usd)
- Compact design:
- The compact dimensions permit installation in any power rating class of
distribution transformers , and reduce total transformer dimension

- Simply to connect:
- Ecotap use direct drive ( DC motor) , no need gear box and separated MDU
(motordrive unit)
- Maintenance free
- Vacuum interrupter prevent the transformer oil from being contaminated and
ensure that the primary equipment does not need service
3.Basic Principle

- 1. Output voltage measurement (Direct measurement or CT measurement)


- 2.Ecotap VPD control as AVR ( automatic voltage regulator)
- 3. Drive Unit
- 4.Switching unit
- Ecotap VPD control will compare “output voltage” vs “set point voltage”
- If output voltage < set point , VPD control command the drive unit to “raise” the
swicthing unit , so output voltage will be increase.
- If output voltage > set point , VPD control command the drive unit
to “lower” the swicthing unit , so output voltage will be decrease.
4.More Detail
A. How to choose preferred switching unit?

Step :
1. Calculate max. through current on HV winding
Delta : I=kVA/kV/3/LT , Wye : I=kVA/kV/sqrt(3)/LT
LT : lowest tap factor (lowest tapping voltage/nominal voltage)
From spec HV is delta & lowesst tap =0.95
so I =1000/11/3/.95=
2. Define number of tap position ,
from spec we get= 9 positions
3. So preferred switch unit is Ecotap 30A – 9 tap
4.More Detail
B. How to choose prefered Ecotap VPD control unit?
1.Basically we can offer Basic type If Tx just require to run AVR function & customer
not require additional function i.e. parallel operation , remote communication etc.
*cost difference basic & pro : arround 4000 Eur
*(data PO 2019 : Ecotap III phase 100A 17 tap with basic = 10106 eur, with pro = 14066 eur)
*(data PO 2018 : Ecotap III phase 30A 9 tap with basic = 6873 eur, with pro = 10720 eur)

2. Basic type key point :


- Auto mode with single-phase voltage regulation algorithm
- Manual mode with raise-lower operation
- Complete parameterization on the controller possible, no laptop needed
- Comprehensive indication of status in the display
3. Pro type key point :
- Remote communication in accord. with IEC 60870-4-104, Modbus etc.
- Advanced voltage regulation algorithms, i.e performance-based voltage curves
- Parallel operation regulation
- Three-phase voltage and current measurement
- Storage of power quality measurements
