330 kV power transformer is an extra-high-voltage (EHV) transformer used in transmission systems to transfer large amounts of electrical power between the 330 kV grid and lower-voltage transmission or sub-transmission networks. It is commonly deployed by national utilities in countries that operate 330 kV transmission systems.
