Abstract
FIXED RATES and rising costs of construction and operation have posed a financial problem for many electrical utilities. Because transformers represent 25 to 40 per cent of a utility´s expenditure for electric equipment and nearly one-half of this capacity is in large units used for transmission of bulk power, proper selection and application of large power transformers offers one avenue for a substantial reduction in the total system investment.
