1 Modification to Clause 1, Scope
After the last item of the bulleted list, “- large power transformers which are like for like replacements in the
same physical location/installation for existing large power transformers, where this replacement cannot be
achieved without entailing disproportionate costs associated to their transportation and/or installation”, add the
following text:
“In case one of the last two exclusions is claimed, this should be documented at the signature of the contract
with a declaration made by the customer.
NOTE 3 This standard covers the transformers under the Commission Regulation (EU) No. 548/2014 and gives
additional specific guidance for single phase transformers, multi winding transformers and for transformers with OF or OD
cooling systems, necessary for the correct application of energy efficiency requirements to these categories of
transformers.”.
2 Modifications to Clause 3, Terms and definitions
After term “3.6 declared value”, add the following new terms:
“3.7 excluded transformers
3.7.1
instrument transformer
transformer as defined in section 3.1.1 of EN 61869-1:2009, even if it supplies energy for the operation of
connected equipment
Note 1 to entry: The difference between the definition in Regulation 548/2014 and the CENELEC one is in the use of the
word ‘supply’ rather than ‘transmit an information signal’.
3.7.2
transformer with low-voltage windings specifically designed for use with rectifiers to provide a DC
supply
transformer specifically designed and intended to supply power electronic or rectifier loads specified according
to EN 61378-1
Note 1 to entry: This definition covers transformers designed for use with rectifiers to provide a DC supply in certain
applications.
Note 2 to entry: The term “low-voltage winding” refers to the winding having the lowest rated voltage as per EN 60076-1,
whatever its voltage level.
Note 3 to entry: This definition does not include:
- transformers which are intended to provide AC from DC sources such as transformers for wind turbine and photo
voltaic applications;
- transformers designed for DC transmission and distribution applications.
Therefore, they are part of the scope of this standard and shall comply with Commission Regulation (EU) No. 548/2014.
3.7.3
transformers specifically designed for offshore applications and floating offshore applications
transformer to be installed on fixed or floating offshore platforms, offshore wind turbines or on board of ships
and all kind of vessels

3.7.4
transformers specially designed for emergency installations
transformer designed only to provide cover for a specific time limited situation when the normal power supply
is interrupted either due to an unplanned occurrence such as failure or a station refurbishment, but not to
permanently upgrade an existing substation
Note 1 to entry: Such transformer could have some specific features that make it suitable for emergency or temporary
use as opposed to normal use. Example of some specific features:
- multiple windings making it suitable for use at several locations;
- special low weight or dimensions for easy transport, or special capability to be disassembled into smaller units for
transport;
- increased overload capability achieved by the use of special materials;
- permanent mounting on a transporter arrangement.
3.7.5
transformers and auto-transformers specifically designed for railway feeding systems
transformer as defined in EN 50329
3.7.6
earthing or grounding transformers, this is, three-phase transformers intended to provide a neutral
point for system grounding purposes
