TRANSFORMER PHASE PERMUTATION CAUSING MORE UNIFORM TRANSFORMER PHASE AGING AND GENERAL SWITCHING NETWORK SUITABLE FOR SAME

摘要

A method includes determining whether transformer phases should be permuted. The method includes, responsive to a determination that the transformer phases should be permuted, permuting the transformer phases, based on historical aging information of transformer input phases, to cause transformer input phases with higher ages to be connected to transformer output phases with lower output loads and transformer input phases with lower ages to be connected to transformer output phases with higher output loads. Multiple apparatus and program products are also disclosed.
