Title: Study on Carbon Emissions Born During the Life Cycle of Distribution Transformers
Keywords: Carbon emissions, oil-filled transformers, steel core

Abstract: This article examines the current issue related to the life-cycle carbon emissions of oil distribution transformers. A detailed analysis of the percentage ratio of carbon emissions in the main elements of oil transformers during production, operation and repair was performed. A model is presented for evaluating and comparing carbon emissions for transformer repairment and replacement options. A specific example of a 400 kVA transformer after years of service and failure is considered to illustrate the decision to repair or replace with a new one.
