Advancement and innovations in substation equipment: Introduction of ester Filled Pad Mounted transformer in Indian electrical Distribution network

In recent times, Indian Electrical Distribution sector has witnessed advances and new trends in technology to cope up with the competitive market. Distribution Transformer is the integral part of the Power Distribution System. It is used as last mile connectivity to the consumer. These transformers are generally located in the vicinity of the consumer, in public area like Markets, Malls, Traffic Junctions and consumer premise. Conventional Substations usually occupies more space as all the equipments are required to be installed separately. In Metro cities, availability of space for establishing last mile connectivity is very feeble and costly. Also, it is important that the transformers installed are Safe and Environment friendly.
