Working Principle
Operating on Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction, the voltage transformer features a laminated magnetic core with primary winding connected to the high-voltage line and secondary windings providing standardized low-voltage signals. The magnetic flux generated by primary voltage induces proportional voltage in the secondary winding, delivering standardized output voltage through connected burden.
System Application Position
- Medium Voltage Distribution: 35 kV outdoor switchgear and distribution systems
- Energy Metering: Revenue-grade electricity measurement and tariff systems
- Protection Circuits: Overvoltage, undervoltage, and directional protection schemes
- SCADA Integration: Supervisory control and data acquisition systems
Structural Overview
Epoxy resin cast construction with fully-enclosed outdoor design ensures superior insulation performance, UV resistance, moisture resistance, and mechanical strength. The support-type mounting configuration provides stable installation in outdoor substations while maintaining excellent electrical clearance and creepage distances for Grade II and Grade IV pollution environments.
Model Designation
Model Code Explanation
- J — Voltage transformer (VT / PT)
- D — Single-phase
- Z — Cast-resin (epoxy) insulated, fully enclosed structure
- X — Outdoor (weatherproof) design
- F — Multiple metering windings (JDZXF9 only)
- 9 — Design code (platform/iteration)

- W — Outdoor pollution grade variant (extended creepage)
Variant Differences
JDZX9-35 features one metering winding and one protection winding, suitable for standard metering and protection applications. JDZXF9-35 features two separate metering windings plus one protection winding, enabling independent metering circuits for dual-custody or backup measurement systems. Both models are electrically equivalent when specified with identical voltage ratios, accuracy classes, burdens, and insulation levels.

Construction
Construction Design
- Structure: Support (post) type for outdoor substation mounting
- Insulation: Fully enclosed epoxy resin cast insulation with UV-resistant outer surface
- Core: Silicon steel laminated core design with low no-load loss
- System: Integrated primary and secondary insulation system with extended creepage for pollution resistance
The epoxy resin casting provides stable insulation properties and resistance to moisture, UV degradation, contamination, thermal cycling, and aging for long-term outdoor service in harsh environments.
Windings & Terminal Marking
- Primary terminals: A (line) / X (neutral or ground-side connection)
- Secondary terminals (Metering Winding 1): a1 / x1 / xa
- Secondary terminals (Metering Winding 2, JDZXF9 only): a2 / x2 / xa
- Secondary terminals (Protection Winding): ad / xd / xd
Terminal markings follow IEC 61869 and GB 1207 polarity conventions. Under normal operating conditions, when terminal A is at positive potential relative to X, terminals a1/a2/ad are simultaneously at positive potential relative to x1/x2/xd respectively. Correct terminal identification shall be observed to ensure metering and protection performance. At least one point of each secondary winding shall be grounded per safety requirements.
