Power grids
Dear all,
This text describes specifications of a transformer to be installed in "TP" and "MTP" power grids. I am sure these terms are very similar.
"os transformadores destinam-se a ser instalados nas Redes de TP e MTP"
It describes a certain type of power grids. In other situation the term "redes de MAT" pops up, this was easier to identify (média-alta tensão). This leaves the clue that most likely the abbreviations are in Portuguese. But I cannot figure out their meaning. TP = transportation? MT = medium voltage? (what about the "P"?).
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
Best,
José

TP - transformador de potência/power transformer // MTP - medium power transformer
Acho que o que confundiu é que TP é uma sigla em português e MTP é a sigla em inglês
Discussion
@Teresa, @Roy vd Heijden: não me parece que tenha a ver com telecomunicações. Trata-se de um transformador de potência a ser instalado em redes elétricas. Não há qualquer menção a telecomunicações. De todos os modos, começo a ponderar que é possível que as abreviaturas estejam em inglês.
