EMP Isolation Provided by Large Faraday-Shielded Transformers

Abstract

The pulse response of a variety of power transformers was determined, with emphasis on Faraday-shielded transformers. Tests were conducted on seven transformers and an Inductrol regulator at the SAFEGUARD North Dakota site. The transformers range in size from 10 MVA to 250 VA. The analysis program used the test results to the transformer characteristics, and to calculate the shielding effectiveness of the transformers for a variety of input conditions, loads, and wiring configurations.
