ABB Bushing type TOB /TOB 2 (72,5kV - 170kV  800-3150 A)

Oil Impregnated Paper (OIP) is used for bushings that utilize plain craft paper, with the condenser core saturated with transformer-grade mineral oil. OIP bushings usually have upper air-side and lower oil-side porcelain insulators. 

Hitachi Energy offers several different product lines of OIP condenser bushings for AC and DC transformers and reactors. Details of the designs vary with voltage and current ratings.

Resin Impregnated Paper (RIP)

GSA-OA bushing

Hitachi Energy offers the most comprehensive and complete range of RIP bushings for AC and DC transformers, reactors, and AC switchgear and breakers in the market.

Resin Impregnated Paper (RIP) is used for dry bushings in which the main insulation consists of a core wound from crepe paper, which is then impregnated with a curable resin. The outer insulation is a composite insulator with silicone sheds or a porcelain insulator.

Our bushings are compliant with many international and regional product standards.

Resin Impregnated Synthetic (RIS) bushings

EasyDry Bushing

Resin Impregnated Synthetics (RIS) is the latest technology within our industry and is very similar to Resin Impregnated Paper (RIP) technology with one exception. Instead of using conventional paper as spacer between the capacitive layers, the bushing's core is wound with synthetic fabrics. Both RIP and RIS bushings use epoxy resin as the main insulation material. The outdoor insulation for oil-air transformer applications, is made from silicone rubber material, extruded or molded directly onto the RIS condenser core. RIS bushings do not absorb water (no hygroscopic material like paper is used) and are, therefore, easier to store. At the same time, they share the same excellent fire-resistant, explosion-proof characteristics, and other advantages of traditional dry or RIP bushings.

Our RIS bushings are available for AC transformers and reactors.

TXpert™ Bushing Monitoring

Real-time monitoring enabled by CoreTec™ 5, the TXpert™ Hub monitoring, and diagnostics device

TXpert™ Bushing monitoring solution provides real time bushing monitoring for power transformers according to the two main technologies: voltage reference and sum of current. It combines the CoreTec™ 5, TXpert™ Hub with our TXpert™ Ready bushing sensors to provide a turnkey solution for digital bushing monitoring and enable smarter decisions based on data-driven intelligence.

It can monitor 1, 3, or 6 bushing configurations and give you an early warning of incipient faults developing in a bushing. It is available for installation in new transformers and retrofit applications for most brands or types.

  • Continuous monitoring of bushing health parameters 
  • Connectivity to CoreTec™ 5, the and the TXpert™ Hub  ​
  • All bushing types (oil-filled or dry) with a tap connector​
  • Bushing health readings:​
