Transformer Explosion

Why do transformer explode

• Winding failures due to short circuits (turn-turn faults, phase-phase faults, phase-ground, open winding)
• Core faults (core insulation failure, shorted laminations)
• Terminal failures (open leads, loose connections, short circuits)
• On-load tap changer failures (mechanical, electrical, short circuit, overheating)
• Abnormal operating conditions (over fluxing, overloading, overvoltage)
• External faults.
• Inadequate Transformer fire Protection.
