  • TRANSFORMER STRUCTURE FOR SMART LOAD BALANCING
    Publication number: 20120277926
    Abstract: A load balancing system includes a transformer having a plurality of integrated sensors. A control system that may be embedded within the transformer is in electrical communication with the plurality of sensors. The control system is configured to estimate or determine the state of health of the transformer. The state of health of the transformer is based upon signals generated via the plurality of sensors. A load request that may be received that is compared to the state of health of the transformer to determine if the transformer can support the load request. The control system determines whether or not the transformer can provide electrical power based upon the estimated state of health of the transformer and in response to the load request.
