Transformer Testing – Turns Ratio Measurements
*Need Digital Chalk account to sign up, click to create account.Measuring transformer ratio from one external terminal to another reveals a great deal of information about the transformer. Transformers are subject to mechanical impact and vibration. Problems or faults occur due to poor design, assembly, handling, poor environments, overloading, or poor maintenance. Measuring the polarity and turn ratio of a transformer winding assures that the connections are correct and that there are no severe mismatches or opens.

Transformer Testing – Winding Resistance Measurements
*Need Digital Chalk account to sign up, click to create account.Winding resistance measurements in transformers are of fundamental importance for the following purposes: calculations of the I2R component of conductor losses; calculation of winding temperature at the end of a temperature test cycle; and as a diagnostic tool for assessing possible damage in the field. The DC current not only flows through the winding of the device under test, but also through numerous welded and mechanical connections; in addition to the obvious faulted winding (such as an open winding or shorted turn), the test reveals more subtle problems.

Transformer Testing – Sweep Frequency Response Analysis
*Need Digital Chalk account to sign up, click to create account.Sweep frequency response is a major advance in transformer condition analysis, allowing visualization of the inside of a transformer’s tank without costly de-tanking. This is done by performing a simple measurement looking at how well a transformer winding transmits a low voltage signal that varies in frequency. Just how well a transformer does this is related to its impedance, the capacitive and inductive elements that are intimately related to the physical construction of the transformer.

Transformers – Demagnetization of Power Transformer Cores
*Need Digital Chalk account to sign up, click to create account.After a power or distribution transformer is disconnected from the power grid, or when a DC current is applied to it–for example, during a routine winding resistance measurement–the transformer core is likely to have some remnant magnetism. This remnant magnetism will generate high overcurrents when the transformer is re-energized, which is commonly known as Transformer Inrush Current.

Transformers – Excitation Current Testing Series
*Need Digital Chalk account to sign up, click to create account.The excitation test is one of many tests typically used to verify the overall “health” of the transformer; it is typically performed each time a large power transformer is tested. As with most routine testing results, it is compared to previous results to verify no major changes have occurred–and in the case of the excitation test, it gives an indication that the transformer core is electrically and mechanically sound.
