Scope

GB/T 25438-2026 is the English-translated version of 三相油浸式立体卷铁芯电力变压器技术参数和要求.

GB/T 25438-2026 gives the technical parameters and requirements for three-phase oil-immersed transformers with three-dimensional wound cores. It specifies performance parameters, technical requirements, inspection rules, and requirements for marking, lifting, packaging, loading, transportation and storage, together with inspection methods.

The parameters are arranged by voltage level, for 6 kV and 10 kV, 20 kV and 35 kV. It applies to transformers of 50 Hz rated frequency and rated capacity of 30 kVA and above, with electrical steel or amorphous alloy cores, including off-load and on-load tap-changing types.

This edition extends the scope to 20 kV and 35 kV and raises the maximum capacity at 6 kV and 10 kV to 4000 kVA. Issued on 2 July 2026 and applicable from 1 February 2027, it replaces GB/T 25438-2010.

Foreword

This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents".

This document supersedes GB/T 25438-2010 "Technical Parameters and Requirements for Three-Phase Oil-Immersed Three-Dimensional Winded Core Distribution Transformers" and is consistent with... Compared with GB/T 25438-2010, apart from structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows.

---The "Scope" content has been changed, expanding the applicable voltage levels to include 20kV and 35kV, and broadening the core material range to include electrical components.

Steel and amorphous alloys (see Chapter 1, Chapter 1 of the 2010 edition);

---Performance parameters have been modified for non-excitation voltage regulating distribution transformers with voltage levels of 6kV and 10kV and core material of electrical steel.

The maximum rated capacity of the transformer has been increased from 1600kVA to 4000kVA, and the loss parameters have been adjusted (see Table 1).

1 Scope

This document specifies the performance parameters, technical requirements, inspection rules, marking, lifting, and packaging of three-phase oil-immersed three-dimensional wound core power transformers.

Requirements for loading, transportation, and storage are specified, along with corresponding inspection methods.

This document applies to components with a rated frequency of 50Hz, a rated capacity of 30kVA and above, and a core material of electrical steel and amorphous alloy.

Three-phase oil-immersed three-dimensional wound core power transformers with voltage ratings of 6kV, 10kV, 20kV and 35kV, including off-load and on-load tap-changing types. The manufacture of.

Note: Unless otherwise noted, the term "three-phase oil-immersed three-dimensional wound core power transformer" in this document is abbreviated as "transformer".
