The FEC shall be connected to the top of Transformer oil tank for depressurization
of tank and to the oil pit (capacity is approximately equal to 10% of total volume of
oil in Transformer tank / or existing oil pit) from its bottom through oil pipes.
The FEC should house a pressurized nitrogen cylinder which is connected to the
oil tank of Transformer oil tank at bottom. The Transformer Conservator Isolation
Valve (TCIV) is fitted between the conservator tank and Buchholz relay. Cable
connections are to be provided from signal box to the control box in the switchyard
control room, from control box to FEC and from TCIV to signal box. Detectors
placed on the top of Transformer tank are to be connected in parallel to the signal
box by Fire survival cables.
Control box is also to be connected to relay panel in switchyard control room for
receiving system activation signals.
5.12.3 OPERATION
On receipt of all activating signals, the system shall drain predetermined volume of hot
oil from the top of tank (i.e. top oil layer), through outlet valve, to reduce tank pressure by
removing top oil and simultaneously injecting nitrogen gas at high pressure for stirring the
oil at pre-fixed rate and thus bringing the temperature of top oil layer down. Transformer
conservator isolation valve blocks the flow of oil from conservator tank in case of tank
rupture / explosion or bushing bursting. Nitrogen occupies the space created by oil drained
out and acts as an insulating layer over oil in the tank and thus preventing aggravation of
fire.
Fire Retardant Low Smoke (FRLS) cable of adequate size shall be used for connection of
signal box / marshalling box near transformer and FEC mounted near transformer with
control box mounted in control room.

connection between control box to DC & AC supply source, FEC to AC supply source,
signal box / marshalling box to transformer conservator isolation valve connection on
transformer. Separate cables for AC supply & DC supply shall be used.
