Abstract :
With the increasing industrialisation that has been taking place in many overseas countries during the last decade, the demand for heavy electrical plant has multiplied. British manufacturers have been in the forefront of those supplying this equipment, and, as a result, they have built up considerable expertise in designing and building this plant, to meet the widely varying conditions encountered in these countries. This article discusses transformers suitable for overseas installations particularly where onerous conditions prevail. Some comments are also made on the benefits of choosing standard transformers and on transporting them on long overland routes
