The high temperature design should be based on hybrid insulation system. The average temperature rise of the transformer windings at rated power should not exceed 95 K, and the top oil temperature should not exceed 60 K. Reference to other requirements in IEC 60076-14. Minimum thermal class for the high-temperature solid insulation should be 155 °C.

SR-47959 - It shall be provision for measuring voltage at the bushing to be able to check if the transformer is energized. 3.4 Tank Transformers with U m equal to or above 24 kV should have a diaphragm-type oil preservation system to avoid direct contact between the transformer oil and air. A flexible diaphragm or bladder should be used for this purpose. SR-47972 - 316L stainless steel shall be used for fasteners (screws, bolts, nuts, etc.) up to and including a diameter of 10 mm. For diameters above 10 mm fasteners shall be hot dip galvanised in accordance with ASTM A153 or coated with PTFE with anticorrosion pre-treatment. The requirement for fasteners does not apply to fasteners inside the transformer tank. 4 Dry insulated transformers 4.1 Windings See section 2.3 in this document for general requirements. The insulation level will be according to: List 2 in table 3 of section 12.1 for the IEC-based specification IEC 60076-11.
