Transformer Unit

Transformers transfer electrical energy from one circuit to another circuit usually with changed values of voltage and current in the process.

Designer uses the DESIGNUNIT model name on this class to designate it as an electric device unit object class. The Designer Work Function Tool uses this model name to identify all electric device unit object classes.

The ArcFM Synch Transformer Unit Phase Designation autoupdater, Phase on Bank Unit QA Validation rule, and RatedKVA on Transformer QA Validation rule all use the TRANSFORMERUNIT model name. The ArcFM Phase Swap tool and Display Name objects also require the TRANSFORMERUNIT model name.

Associations: RegulatorControl (only valid for VoltageRegulator), Transformer

Subtypes: Distribution Transformer Unit, Power Transformer Unit, Voltage Regulator Unit. The use of subtypes is optional. The Subtype attribute can be removed if subtypes aren't used in the model.

Model Names: DESIGNUNIT, TRANSFORMERUNIT
