SERGI has published a synthesis on the damage cost of transformer explosions
.
The financial consequences often reach hundreds of USD Millions.
Transformer explosions and fire provoke important lack of income, require
replacement of transformers and surrounding equipment, pollute the environment and
convey bad publicity for the affected company. The damage caused depends on the
transformer location:
-
Power plant incidents result in very high loss of revenue and can lead to company bankruptcies if not insured. For insurers, the cost reference is 0.5 USD Million per Mega Watt.
-
Transmission substation incidents can result in the complete blackout of a region or a country. Several well-known cases have been recorded recently (USA, UK, Italy, Spain,
etc.)
-
Distribution transformer explosions in urban areas can have disastrous financial consequences, up to USD billion, because of pollution and litigation costs.

buildings, since the danger is channelled far
