Distribution Transformer
PEL distribution transformers range includes oil immersed core type
transformers, Dry type (VP impregnated) transformers and
autotransformers. These transformers are tailor made for various
ratings. IEC or national standards are followed. We offer distribution
transformers voltage up to 33 kV and ratings up to 30 MVA. PEL
offers transformer tanks with corrugated walls, detachable radiators
and tubular arrangement. The corrugated tanks have a better
cooling efficiency, since the fins are expandable. Tanks are
hermetically sealed where possible. In order to meet sophisticated
requirements of customers PEL has also started manufacturing
transformers with foil winding. Foil winding efficiently uses space
which results in size reduction. It has better heat dissipation and
also increases potential to withstand short circuit current. PEL
transformers are available for various applications:
Distribution Transformers (Pole /Pad Mounted)
Auto Transformers
Furnace Transformers
Welding Transformers
Chokes for furnace Transformers
Any other special requirement
Power Transformer
Extensive experience and success in manufacturing distribution
transformers led to the establishment of power transformer division
in 2005. Since its birth the division has produced transformers of
ratings 31/40MVA, 20/26MVA, and 10/13MVA for ratings up to 132
KV. In order to provide its customers the best of technology and
products of international competence, PEL has combined its

technical expertise with GANZ, a renowned and experienced

Hungarian transformer manufacturer.
PEL is also exporting Power Transformer to International customers
for their special requirements and specifications. PEL power
transformers are equipped with best transformer accessories like
OLTC from MR (Germany), High Voltage Bushing from PASSONI &
VILLA (Italy), Buchholz Relay from EMB (Germany), insulation
material from WEIDMANN (Switzerland), silicon steel from THYSSEN
(Germany), and cooling fans from SCHORMANN (Germany). Material
of the windings is usually 99.99% pure electrolytic copper. Multiple
conductors as well as CTC are used in winding. The magnetic cores
are manufactured from cold rolled grain oriented (CRGO) steel
sheets. A robust clamping structure, jointing technique and cutting
and mitering of laminations ensure low no load losses. The steel
sheets in the core limbs and in the yokes are clamped together by
glass-epoxy bands.
Tank is constructed with boiler steel plates welded together and a
cover plate bolted on top. Strength is ensured by stiffeners.
Earthling terminals are attached to both sides of tank. Measuring
Instruments are installed on cover plate. Surface protection is done
by the process of sand blasting and by applying weather resistant
paint. Tap changers are in accordance with IEC standards. Usually
motorized On-Load tap changers are provided for voltage regulation.
Off- Load tap changers can be installed on request. The diverter
switch is placed in hermetically sealed oil filled chamber in order to
avoid contamination of oil in main tank.
Dry Type Transformer
Introduction
The demand of electricity in Pakistan has been increasing rapidly in
the last few years. There is a mushroom growth in the high rise
buildings, shopping areas, CNG and petrol stations, residential
colonies, etc. Due to the scarcity of space in cities, installation of
conventional oil type transformers in such congested and populated
areas is always a big safety risk. The developed as well as many
developing countries are installing dry type transformers as a
solution for ensuring safety in such scenarios.
Types of Dry Type Transformers
There are primarily two main manufacturing techniques for dry type
transformers; Cast Resin and Vacuum Pressure Impregnated (VPI)
with their own typical features. The main difference is their
insulation class; Cast Resin is Class F (155C) and VPI is Class H
(180C). The Vacuum Pressure Impregnated transformers not only
offers in-build safety feature but there are many other advantages
of using these transformers such as improved reliability, reduced
losses, minimal maintenance, enhanced overloading capability etc.
Dry-type-transformer

PELs Initiative for Technology Transfer

Considering these advantages of dry type transformers, Pak Electron
Limited (PEL) took the initiative and went into a Technology Transfer
Agreement in March 2007 with DuPont Pakistan Limited (DPOL) for
Designing and Manufacturing of Vacuum Pressure Impregnated dry
transformers with Nomex paper. PEL is now pleased to announce
that PEL will be the first local company in the production of dry type
transformers in Pakistan.
Advantages of Dry Type Transformers with VPI Technology
using NOMEX
Enhanced Safety With the increasing costs of low voltage cables, it
has become a trend to bring high voltage lines close to installed
loads. For cost reasons, transformers are located near habitable
areas such as buildings where fire risk has to be minimized.
Additionally, industries such as chemical, mining, etc. are also a
potential risk of fire. Ventilated Dry type transformers (VDT) have no
fluids to spill, explode or burn, and the insulation used (NOMEX)
does not support combustion in air. Therefore, these transformers
ensure enhanced safety of equipment against fire hazards.
Reduced Losses
Dry type transformers can be located close to their loads, such as;
inside factories, schools, hospitals and apartments and as a result
low-voltage lines can be shortened with a consequent reduction of
the related losses.
Increased Reserve Capacity
If transformers are to be operated continuously at or near their
rated loads, efficiency is of prime importance. In this case, one could
select 80C-rise in VDT units insulated with NOMEX, allowing these
units to operate continuously above (potentially up to 30 percent
more than) the rated load (if needed, for example, due to unplanned
expansions) at a much lower cost (in increased load loss) than that
associated with adding an additional transformer.
Improved Reliability
Transformers are inherently reliable pieces of equipment. Surveys
published by IEEE show failure rates of modern ventilated dry-type
transformers equivalent to conventional fluid-filled units in the same
power and voltage classes. However, in case of difficulty, dry types
can be easily inspected and minor repairs conducted on site and
repair time for dry-type units is also considerably shorter.
Minimal Maintenance
Dry type transformers require an annual inspection and only
cleaning of dust which can block path of the cooling medium i.e. air.
This is only where the maintenance is required to be carried out.

This considerably reduces the running cost. Whereas periodic

inspection for leaks and rust is required for liquid cooled
transformers. Liquid coolants need continuous monitoring and have
to be reconditioned when necessary.
Reduced Cost of Cabling
VPI transformers installation does not require particular fire safety
arrangements; consequently the transformers can be installed near
the load. This results in reducing the high costs of LT cabling.

Resistance to Humidity
Vacuum pressure resin impregnation of the insulation paper
covering the conductors and the other insulation components make
it resistant to moisture and polluted atmospheres. This allows the
placement of VDT units in many locations not considered in the
past.
Friendly to the environment
In these transformers, no liquids is used, thus no risks for any kind
of leakage, moreover, no toxic or corrosive gasses, nor halogens are
released from the transformer in case of any accident/fire. At the
end of their useful life, VDT units can easily be dismantled, and the
copper (or aluminum) conductors recovered, along with the steel
core. A further impetus to wider use of dry-type transformers has
been the PCB hazard which is present for many oil filled
transformers.
Improved Capability for Harmonic Loading
Transformers supplying loads with heavy harmonic content
frequently see high hot-spot temperatures. Standard transformers
typically reduce the base temperature to compensate, which
increases the size of the unit. Dry-type transformers designed with
NOMEX still have a large reserve temperature capability to
accommodate these hot spots, with no loss of life.
Energy Meter
Automatic meter reading
AMR is the technology of automatically collecting consumption and status
data from energy metering devices and transferring that data to a central
database for billing, troubleshooting, and analyzing. It provides real time
& Pre Program Interval consumption rather than on estimates based on
previous or predicted consumption. This timely information coupled with
analysis, can help both utility providers and customers better control the
use and production of electric energy consumption.
PEL AMR enabled meters are based on RF and GSM/GPRS technologies.
This includes Single Phase, Three Phase and LT/HT meters. PEL based AMR
Server is used to collect data from the AMR meters for detailed analysis

and billing purposes. The AMR software interface is very user friendly and
easy to understand for utility staff. Moreover these meters comply with
DLMS/COSEM protocol.
PEL has its own developed state of the art in-house facility for Research,
development and production of AMR Enabled Meters. Our team of
engineers is continuously working on the development of AMR based
energy meters.

The second way to hire the fresh Graduates/Master degree holder

students from universities is Internee. During the internship,
students are assigned special assignments; if the students qualify
the assignments successfully they are also offered for job.
Advertisement in Print Media
Print Media is also used in PEL for Hiring through external sources.
Ads are given in "Daily Jang", "Daily Dawn" newspapers and also at
international newspaper like "Khalige Times".
Company Web Site
New vacancies are also uploaded on web site of the PEL
(www.pel.com.pk\career). So third way to fill the position is the
company web site.
Employment Agencies
PEL is hiring the employees through employment agencies. It
prepare the job description and job specification according to their
required candidate and forward to recruitment agencies. The main
responsibility of the recruitment agency is to hire the candidate for
PEL and the next all working responsibility depend on PEL. The
agency demand about one month salary of the candidate for
payment.
Sorting received Resumes
After the closing date of the submission of resumes/applications, R & S
section Executives will sort the resumes on the basis of mentioned Criteria
for Job description and Job Specification. (Qualification, Experience,
Specified working experience). Manager recruitment and selection will
forward the sorted list of candidates to concerned HOD. He will
recommend the candidates and HR department will calls to sorted
candidates.

Training and development

Training
Planned programs designed to improve performance at the individual,
group, and/or organizational levels.
Development
The managerial function of preserving and enhancing employees
competence in their jobs through improving their knowledge, skills
abilities, and other characteristics
Training and development Phase of Training
The phase whose purpose is to design the environment in which to
achieve the objectives defined in the assessment phase by choosing
methods and techniques and by delivering them in a supportive
environment based on sound principles of learning.
There is proper working in PEL HR department named as Training and
Development (T & D) Section headed by Assistant Manager (T&D) with
assistance of 3 executive level employees. During my internship I
observed that PEL has two types of employees, one is at management
level (JE to M6) and second is technical staff (S1 to NG). The source of
training is performance evaluation report of employees in which reporting
officer has mentioned that his subordinates required training or not.
Align learning with business
After assessing the TNA form, type of program is finalized and his/her
learning program is aligned with business objectives. Such as Sales
Forecasting program is aligned to enhance the business of PEL
automatically.

Integrate learning with HR and other business processes

During my internship, I observed that the Sales Forecasting program
was integrated with business objectives that sales will increase the
profit of PEL and it will also increase its share value in market. Similarly
the HR vision will vision will meet its expectation like excellence people
through innovative HR practices. People become talented and their
competencies increased through training.
Create a learning culture
This learning program (Sales Forecasting) was arranged in
Auditorium of PEL. They set the mind of the employees that learning
is activity will also be favorable in their own career. Employees are
given certificate after the completion of training program which build
his/her career. So the employees automatically take interest in
learning.
Provide appropriate learning options
In case of appropriate learning, PEL is offering only two options. One is
in its factory position and other outside the organization. Other option
is off-the-job training program which also make the future of the
employees independently to PEL.
Manage learning effectively
An agenda is finalized in which time period is mentioned and
implementation is made accurately. During the training program
practical study case, business games and critical incidents etc. are
given as assignments and their weighted is added in final marks. So
the employees focus on their Grade on Certificate.
Support application of skills in workplace
During the training program employees are purely focused on its
implementation on workplace. The result of the training program
outcome with at least 6 months. Application of training program fully
support the work.
Types of Training
The following 16 main types of On-the-job Training adjust all the
employees in PEL because these training program lead to mission and
vision statement of the PEL.

Employees Development
The major techniques are using in PEL to develop employees are given
below:

Techniques for Individual Development

Techniques for Group Development

Technique for individual development.

Job Analysis and Description
PM section of PEL HR department do assessment of the kinds of skills,
knowledge, and abilities needed to successfully perform each job in an
organization.

Job Analysis Components

PEL is focusing on following two major components which defines as:
Job description
A written statement of what a job holder does, how it is done, and
why it is done

Tasks, duties and responsibilities that the job entails.

Job specification
A statement of the minimum acceptable qualifications that an
incumbent must possess to perform a given job successfully

Knowledge, skills, and abilities required of the job holder

Test and examinations:

After given the training for the management development of the
individual development trainer take the test by written test of the
employees mean that by adopting this simple method is to write a
narrative description and employees strengths, weaknesses, past
performance potential, and suggestions for improvement. The written
essay requires no completes forms or extensive training to complete
special test are

Aptitude
Intelligence
Ability
interest test batteries

1. Questionnaires: During and after training impel PEL trainer also ask
questions which is also a good techniques for the development of
management. The first type provides a list of times to ticked,
alternative answers to be selected, and blanks to be filled in. it could
also have a scaled structure or require yes/no responses. The second
type offers an opportunity to give a more complete and comprehensive
picture of a situation.
2. Interviewing: In PEL as well as in all the organization in the world this
technique is used for the development of the management and
different purpose and many different ways. This purpose is to get
information may concern
Events
Work results
Knowledge behavior
Attitudes
Opinions values
Habits
Perceptions
3. Observation: This Company has also solution of the development
problems apparent only through systematic care observations is done
which help for development. Observing a regular management
meeting, watching a Supervisor/Manger/HOD dealing with people or
problems, or observing manager full time.
4. Critical Incidents: PEL also developing its employees individually by
critical incidents, it is defined as:
Evaluating the behaviors that are key in making the difference
between executing a job effectively and executing it in ineffectively.

For the management development a Supervisor/Manger/HOD see

critical incidents by which the evaluator attention on the behaviors that
are key in main the difference between executing a job effectively and
executing it ineffectively. That is, the appraiser writes down anecdotes
that describe what the employees did not vaguely defined personality
traits. A list of critical incidents provides a rich set of examples from
which the employee can be shown the behaviors that are desirable and
those that call for improvement.
5. The Diary Method: In this company Supervisor/Manger/HOD also
record the activities over given period of time, selectively or be
confined to events regarded as critical incidents can be done by diary
method. So this approach is also a good development technique to
achieve the objectives of PEL.
6. Management by Objectives (MBO):
Basically in PEL employees are evaluated by how well they accomplish
a specific set of targeted/assigned objectives to be critical in the
successful completion of their jobs.
7. Self-Assessment:
This is a method in PEL by the order of HR department for selfassessment through which an individual will save his/her career by
availing the opportunity to test present skills in an environment where
he/she fails. So it helps to develop existing skills.
8. Career Planning:
Where the Supervisor/Manger/HOD of the PEL, compulsory to described
objectives; there he has to also described the performance, behavior,
competence and training need or the individuals for career planning.
9. Action Learning:
In real life experiential learner is using real-life experiences to change
behavior or attitudes, also uses element of action learn learning.
However, when describing experiential learning we have in mind not a
set of techniques or a type of program but a broad concept of utilizing
real-life experience to learning. Action learning comprises a set of
logically interconnected activities that are structured specifically of
achieving personal learning and organization change.
10. Training from abroad:
In PEL Employees are also trained by international training seminars,
session and institutions in respect of off-the-job training. Only GM level
(M4) employees go to abroad for training to remain in-touch with latest
technologies and according to the requirements of the organization. All
the expenses are compensated by the PEL. In October, 2008 Mr. Waqar
Khadim, Head HR went to abroad to attend the International HR
Seminar in Germany for 10 days.

Technique for group development

After the sorting and analysis of TNA forms most of the employees fall in
the same category training. So T&D section design the group plans for
development of the employees which are as follows:
Group Meetings
An evaluation method that places employee into a particular
classification, such as quartiles meeting in PEL. It requires the evaluator to
place employees into a particular classification, such as top one-fifth or
second one-fifth.
Group Projects
During on-the-job training in PEL groups are assigned a project like to
opening a new unit for sale. Then SWOT analysis of the unit. Such a group
projects serve a wide range of company objectives. In PEL two tend to
prevail
(i)
A temporary group is established on a part-time basis, with the
agreement and support of senior a management,
(ii)
A group is established with the combined objective of working on
a practical problems and of learning specific skills in the course of
this process.
Business Games
A situational test in which candidates play themselves, not an assigned
role, and are evaluated within a group. I observed that trainer from UMT
trainer the employees by the same practice. Firstly a group of 30
employees stand in an unshaped form not in proper circle and they catch
the ball to each other. After 5 minutes trainer make a group of only 15
employees and they catch ball each other. In last, a group of only 5 boys
stand in a circle shape and said to catch the ball in a circle shape also.
Trainer drew the result if the employees work according to plan and
direction they will have a clear objective and will get their target with
prescribed time period. So this approach also develops the employees in
management.
The case Method
During the training of sales forecasting program, I observed that
employees were assigned a case to enhance their sales by doing the
SWOT analysis that how they forecast their sales with competitors. This
method stimulates and synthetic work involved in preparing and
proposing solution to business problems.

Employee benefits and compensation

To retain the employees within the organization all the benefit are offered.
The benefits provided-for under the Policy of PEL are voluntary and not
construed to have any relation whatsoever to the determination of the
