Transformer Testing Guide

This document provides procedures for testing transformers, including turns ratio testing, winding resistance testing, and megger (insulation resistance) testing. Turns ratio testing must ensure ratios between windings match calculations and are within 0.5%. Winding resistance testing compares values between windings within 1%. Insulation resistance testing is performed between windings and windings to ground, with acceptable values provided in Table 4 adjusted for test voltage and temperature.

1 Inspection of Transformer

Ref. RC Contract Specification 16205

2 Electrical Test

2.1 Transformer Turns Ratio Test (TTR)

Transformer turns ratio must be identical for each phase.

The Turns Ratio = N1/N2 = V1/V2 = I2/I1 = K

Where N1 = Number of turns of primary winding.


N2 = Number of turns of Secondary winging.
V1 = Primary Voltage (line to line)
V2 = Secondary Voltage (line to neutral)
I2 = Secondary current
I1 = Primary current

Turns ratio K = V/V2/√3 = √3 V1/V2 For three phase.


K = V1 / V2 For single phase.

PROCEDURE:

A) For this test must be conducted between HV winding & LV winding.

B) For Δ-Y transformer, this test must be conducted between HV winding (line to line) and LV
winding (line to neutral).

C) C) For Y – Y connection, this test must be conducted between HV winding line to neutral
and LV winding line to neutral.

D) This test shall be conducted for each winding and all tap setting.

E) The test value should be noted as under:

Acceptable Value:

Turns ratio test result should not deviate more than 0.5% from either the adjacent coil or the
calculated ratio.

2.2 Winding Resistance Test:

Theory: Resistance of any electrical circuit can be expressed as follows:

R = V/I

Where V = Applied DC voltage


I = Measured DC current
R = Calculated winding resistance in ohm.

PROCEDURE:

For this test, test kit should be connected for both winding in primary and secondary side.

If primary connection between U-V, the Sec. Connection will be between U-V

” V–W “V–W
“ W–U “W–U

For single-phase transformer, this connection should be made between (H-H0) and (X-
X0)

Acceptable Value:

Winding resistance test results should compare within one percent (1%) of adjacent
windings.

2.3 Megger Test / Insulation Resistance:

PROCEDURE:

A) Insulation resistance test should be performed between winding to winding and


winding to ground for both LV & HV windings.

B) Test duration shall be 01 minute.

C) Test connection shall be made as follows:

D) a) HV – LV + GND,
b) LV – HV + GND,
c) HV + LV - GND
