One winding with Um ≤ 24 kV and the other with Um > 1,1 kV | The maximum allowable losses in Tables I.1 and I.2 shall be increased by 10 % for no load losses and by 10 % for load losses |
One winding with Um = 36 kV and the other with Um ≤ 1,1 kV | The maximum allowable losses in Tables I.1 and I.2 shall be increased by 15 % for no load losses and by 10 % for load losses |

Case of dual voltage on one winding | In case of transformers with one high-voltage winding and two voltages available from a tapped low-voltage winding, losses shall be calculated based on the higher voltage of the low-voltage winding and shall be in compliance with the maximum allowable losses in Tables I.1 and 1.2. The maximum available power on the lower voltage of the low-voltage winding on such transformers shall be limited to 0,85 of the rated power assigned to the low-voltage winding at its higher voltage. |
In case of transformers with one low-voltage winding with two voltages available from a tapped high-voltage winding, losses shall be calculated based on the higher voltage of the high-voltage winding and shall be in compliance with the maximum allowable losses in Tables I.1 and I.2., The maximum available power on the lower voltage of the high-voltage winding on such transformer shall be limited to 0,85 of the rated power assigned to the high-voltage winding at its higher voltage. |
If the full nominal power is available regardless of the combination of voltages, the levels of losses indicated in Tables I.1 and I.2 can be increased by 15 % for no load losses and by 10 % for load losses. |
Case of dual voltage on both windings | The maximum allowable losses in Tables I.1 and I.2 can be increased by 20 % for no load losses and by 20 % for load losses for transformers with dual voltage on both windings. The level of losses is given for the highest possible rated power and on the basis that the rated power is the same regardless of the combination of voltages. |
