No Load Tap Changer (NLTC)


Define NLTC ?

     NLTC - No  Load Tap Changer

           Also called 'Off- circuit Tap Changer', Off-load Tap Changer, or De-Energized Tap Changer(DETC)

        No load tap changers are often utilized in situations in which a transformer's turn ratio does not require frequent changing and it is permissible to de-energize the transformer system. This type of transformer is frequently employed in low power, low voltage transformers in which the tap point often may take the form of a transformer connection terminal, requiring the input line to be disconnected by hand and connected to the new terminal. Alternatively, in some systems, the process of tap changing may be assisted by means of a rotary or slider switch.
