IEC 61010 compliant

Suitable for applications to CATIII 600 V

AVO300Digital Multimeter

DESCRIPTIONThe AVO300 range of Megger digital multi-meters are toughcompact instruments designed for the contracting electri-cian, but are also suitable for a wide range of applications and users.

Both instruments offer a range of measurement modes for AC and DC applications, resistance and current measurement.

The AVO300 series multi-meters have tough rubberarmoured cases offering the maximum amount of protection from the extreme use found in modern industrial environments. They draw on extensive experience of Megger engineers in designing safe reliableinstruments for the electrical industry.

Neither of the instruments are burdened with functions thatnever get used. This keeps the instruments simple to oper-ate without the continued need to refer to the user manual.

Auto-rangingEvery measurement range is fully auto-ranging. Simplyswitch on the instrument and start testing, leaving handsfree for holding probes, or hanging onto ladders.

Separate Battery/Fuse compartmentThe battery and fuse compartment are accessed by a sepa-rate cover on the back. This allows both battery and fuses tobe replaced without opening the main instrument body, andif the meter is sealed with a calibration seal, will not breakthe seal and invalidate the calibration. A problem found onmost commonly available multi-meters.

Large clear displayThe LCD display has large high contrast 31/2 digit displaywhich are easily read from a distance. Additionally theAVO310 has a backlit LCD for use in poor lighting and a bargraph range showing the percentage of range used.

Data HOLD This allows a displayed result to be held on the display untilneeded, rather than trying to remember a measurement.The result will be held until the HOLD button is pressedagain, or until the unit switches off.

MODEWhen making current measurements the mode functionallow the selection of AC or DC measurement.

MAX/MIN (AVO310 only)The Max/Min function on the AVO310 freezes the maximumor minimum measured result on the screen. The displaydoes not have to be continually watched to capture amomentary increase or fall in circuit voltage, resistance orcurrent.

Voltage measurementBoth AC and DC voltage measurement is possible with theinstrument auto ranging to match the voltage at the testprobes.

Voltage measurements up to 1000V are permitted withoutdamage to the instrument.

Current measurementThree ranges are provided for current measurement ofeither AC or DC current from 0.1uA to 10A. Fused inputsprotect both the user and the instrument in the case ofexcess current.

PFC measurement on both loop test ranges

Selectable Fault (Touch) voltage 25 V or 50 V

Fault (Touch) voltage display

New Megger lead set included with all instruments

DC test functions for RCDs

All instruments test in accordance with InternationalStandards and National Wiring Regulations including BS7671(16th Edition wiring regulations) and European StandardEN61557.

In addition, the MFT1500 series also meets or exceeds therequirements of EN61010-1 Category III 480 V (max) phase-phase.

The MFT1500 is available in 4 options, the standardMFT1501/2 the MFT1502/2 which includes useful additionalfacilities such as backlit display and range switches, plus theunique Megger illuminated switched probe, the MFT1552which has an automatic RCD test feature, and the MFT1553which has Bluetooth downloading capability

The unique modern styling of the instruments allows it tobe operated whilst stood on the floor, a ledge, hung aroundthe neck with the supplied neck strap, or held in the hand.

FEATURES

The MFT1500 series uses the patented Megger digital/analogue arc display. The analogue arc provides an indication of fluctuating readings, while the digital readoutproviding the ability to record accurate results.

All test functions are selectable from the main panel, withno hidden ranges or functions to forget.

Special functions include:

VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT

AC/DC Volt meter provides a means of measuring the supply voltage independently of any other test functions,eliminating the need to carry a separate multimeter.Automatic selection of AC or DC measurement up to 500 V a.c./d.c.

CONTINUITY TESTING

200 mA continuity from 0.01 to 99.9 k exceeds allcurrent requirements for testing final ring circuitconductors, and bonding of services.

Automatic continuity testing commences the momentthe test probes touch the circuit to be tested, allowingfast testing with both hands free.

Fast continuity buzzer is a fast buzzer tone, with nodelay on each test for the buzzer to sound, savingvaluable operator time. This test includes a fast safetycheck for the presence of a voltage as the test probesare connected to the circuit.

MFT1500 SeriesCombined Insulation, Loop & RCD Tester

Variable buzzer threshold controls the limit at whichthe continuity buzzer stops sounding. Selected from 2 to 100 in 6 steps.

Lead null stores the test lead resistance and deducts thisvalue from the continuity result, even if the instrument isswitched off. Thus reducing the chance of possiblemeasurement errors.

Insulation testing:

Insulation test at 250 V, 500 V and 1000 V for testinglow voltage applications. A 1000 V warning is issuedprior to performing the 1000 V insulation test.

Live circuit warning when performing insulation orcontinuity measurements a live circuit warning isdisplayed and an audible warning sounded if connectedto a circuit with a voltage greater than 25 V (15 V forcontinuity testing).

Safety lockout at voltages greater than 55 V duringcontinuity and insulation testing, the instrumentautomatically warns the operator and inhibits anytesting, preventing accidental damage to the instrumentand full protection to the operator.

The ‘Auto discharge’ facility safely discharges allcircuits after an insulation test, preventing accidentalshock from a stored charge on a long cable during orafter disconnection.

LOOP TESTING

Low current loop test is a 3 wire non-tripping 0.01 loop test designed to prevent RCD tripping byusing a sophisticated 15 mA loop test pioneered byMegger Limited. This NO-TRIP test ensures the RCD willnot trip whilst performing a loop impedance test.

High current loop test at 25 A provides a fast loop testwhere no RCD is fitted, or for Ze measurement on theincoming side of an RCD.

Supply voltage and polarity indication uponconnection to the mains supply the polarity and voltageare displayed to show correct wiring of the socket undertest or test lead connections. This function also providesa warning of live voltages while continuity or insulationtesting.

Phase-Phase Phase-Neutral and Phase-Earth Loop Testsare possible. No danger of damage from accidental 3-phase connection.

Wide supply voltage; allows loop measurements from55 V to 480 V. No damage if accidentally connectedacross phases.

Prospective short-circuit current (PSC) A dedicatedPSC range, using either the 25 A high current loop test orno-trip test, is provided for rapid measurement of Loopcurrents, both at the socket outlet and distributionboard. The PSC ranges from 1 A to 19.9 kA with a resolution of 1 A, 10 A and 100 A depending on range. Allthe loop and PSC tests are auto-ranging.

RCD TESTING:

10 mA to 1000 mA RCD ranges. All standard RCDsfrom 10 mA to 1000 mA are fully supported. All standardRCD test functions are available with both 0° and 180°phase angle at 1/2I, I and 5I up to 300 mA.

RCD ramp test measures the RCD trip current. Theramp test displays the actual trip current on all RCDranges instead of trip time. Ideal for identifying nuisancetripping RCDs. The current is stepped up from 1/2I to I in200 ms steps.

Fault (Touch) voltage can now be set for either 25 V or50 V depending on application.

Fault/touch voltage can also be displayed up to 100 V ona selectable bargraph.

DC sensitive, RCD test option enables testing at 1/2I,I and 5I.

GENERAL FEATURES:

Quick to pick up and use by using colour codedranges and no hidden functions the MFT1500 series takesminutes to learn how to use. Function buttons arecolour matched to the test mode to ensure easyoperation.

Visible and audible Safety warning features areparamount with live circuit warning and protectioncircuitry. If live voltages exist on a circuit duringinsulation or continuity testing the voltage is displayedon the screen. If this voltage exceeds a safe level, theMFT1500 series inhibits further testing and a warningbeeper sounds for extra safety.

Large easy-to-read LCD using the patented Meggerdigital/analogue arc technology - combining high speedanalogue clarity with digital stability. Making it easy toread even in low light level.

Economical with batteries by incorporates an autoshut off facility that operates after 5 minutes of inactivity,reducing wasted battery consumption.

Innovative test lead connection has been developedfor the MFT1500 series. The unique shutter systemallows only those combinations of test leads permittedfor safe testing to be connected. Unsafe or unnecessaryoptions cannot be connected.

Network mains analysis clamp

The screen on this clamp can be used either as a numeric display oras a graphical screen like an oscilloscope, or as a logging instru-ment. The clamp measures the true RMS voltage and current, appa-rent, reactive, active, balanced three-phase and single-phase power,cosj, peak factor, total distortion, power consumption and maximumpower demand. In graphics mode, it displays and quantifies the first 50 harmonics ofthe signal (simultaneously as a percentage of the fundamental com-ponent and in volts, response in amperes), the form of the U and Isignals, the single-phase and three-phase diagram. In loggingmode, the clamp stores information in its memory. The sampling fre-quency and the start/stop cues can be programmed. Long acquisi-tions at high frequencies, with several simultaneous quantities, arepossible by using an RS232 output to a PC and special software.

MIT520/2 and MIT1020/25 kV and 10 kV Insulation Resistance Testers

DESCRIPTION

The new 5 and 10 kV insulation resistance testers fromMegger are designed specifically to assist you with thetesting and maintenance of high voltage electricalequipment. IEEE 43-2000 recommends the use of 10 kV formotor windings rated above 12 kV and the MeggerMIT1020/2 facilitates this. The case is incredibly rugged andeasy to carry, being made of tough polypropylene andachieving an ingress protection rating of IP65. In addition,the model number is marked on both sides of the case forease of identification in stores or vehicles.

The instruments have a large easy to read backlit LCDdisplay making it equally suitable for use in both brightsunlight and poorly lit environments. Information displayedincludes resistance, voltage, leakage current, capacitance,battery status and time constant. In addition, the elapsedtime of the test is displayed constantly, removing the needfor separate timers. Adjustable timers and limit alarms areincluded.

The instrument can test when being powered by the mainsor its internal rechargeable battery, a great benefit when siteconditions are unknown or long term testing is required.

The controls of the instrument are clear and unambiguousand a "quick start" guide is included in the lid of theinstrument removing the need to carry bulky manualsunder site conditions.

The instrument is fitted with a guard terminal to enhanceaccuracy. The guard test lead is included as standard withthe instrument.

To further enhance the flexibility of the instruments bothhave the facility to set the test voltage in steps from 50 V tothe maximum output voltage avoiding the expense ofseveral insulation resistance testers to meet your applicationneeds.

These IR instruments are designed to meet the highestsafety standards and meet the requirements of EN61010. Inaddition, the instrument measures the voltage at theterminals and if this is above 50 V then the instrument willdisplay the high voltage warning and inhibit testing. At theend of the test the instrument will automatically dischargethe energy transferred to the equipment during the testphase.

The MIT520/2 and MIT1020/2 are equally suited to routinetesting and diagnostic regimes being pre-programmed withIR, PI, DAR, SV and DD profiles.

DESCRIPTIONThe MTO210 Transformer Ohmmeter is a line-operated,field-portable instrument designed specifically to measurethe dc resistance of all types of magnetic windings safelyand accurately. It can test rotating machine windings andperform low-current resistance measurements onconnections, contacts and control circuits.

The MTO210 employs a patented “Quick Test”measurement technique, which stabilizes the measurementcurrent in the shortest time possible in order tosignificantly reduce test times.

Also, the dual set of potential inputs measures theresistance of the primary and secondary windings of asingle- or three-phase transformer simultaneously. Thisdual reading characteristic, along with the bi-directionalcurrent output capability, also help to speed up themeasurements when used to test windings on three-phasetransformers.

The Transformer Ohmmeter is extremely useful whentesting the windings and contact resistance of tap-changerswith “make-before-break” contacts and voltage regulators.This action will check for pitted or misaligned contacts asthe instrument will give an indication if either conditionoccurs.

Users are protected by the auto-shutdown safety feature.Any inadvertent disconnection of a test lead or loss ofpower to the instrument will safely discharge the energystored in the test sample.

APPLICATIONSThe MTO210 Transformer Ohmmeter is used:

To verify factory test readings

As part of a regular maintenance program

To help locate the presence of defects in transformers,such as loose connections

To check the “make-before-break” operation of on-loadtap-changers

A regular maintenance program that includes windingresistance measurements is the most effective way to usethis instrument. Once a benchmark is established,subsequent test results can be compared to determine ifchanges are occurring in the transformers and associatedcontrol wiring, voltage regulators, motors, generators,breaker contacts, and all types of connections (bolted,soldered, crimped, etc.).

Tap-changers are mechanical devices and the mostvulnerable part of a transformer. Tap-changers result inmore failures and outages than any other component andso require frequent testing and attention to ensure proper,reliable operation.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS Direct 2-channel digital reading allows for testing two-

windings at a time without the need for time-consumingbridge balancing.

Patented “Quick Test” measurement technique minimizestest time.

User-selectable maximum current range ensuresprotection of small transformers.

Bi-directional current output capability allows the unit totake advantage of any existing magnetization of thetransformer core to help stabilize test currents quicker inorder to reduce test times.

Built-in demagnetization circuitry allows the operator tode-magnetize the transformer core, either before orupon completion of resistance testing, or as a stand-alone feature.

DLRO 10 and DLRO 10XDigital Microhmmeter

DESCRIPTION

DLRO 10 and DLRO 10X set the standards for low resistancemeasurement. DLRO 10 and DLRO 10X are fully automaticinstruments, selecting the most suitable test current up to 10A d.c.to measure resistance from 0.1 µΩ to 2000 Ω, on one of sevenranges.

For users who desire more control over the measurement process,DLRO 10X uses a menu system controlled by a two-axis paddle toallow the user to manually select the maximum test current.

DLRO 10X also adds real time download of results and on boardstorage for later download to a PC.

Both instruments are built into a strong, lightweight case that isequally at home in the field or in the laboratory. Light enough tobe worn around the neck, they are small enough to be taken intoareas that were previously too small to access.

DLRO 10 uses a large, bright 4 1/2 -digit LED display while DLRO10X has a large, backlit LCD display. Normally, measurements aremade with forward and reverse currents to cancel the effects ofany standing voltages across the test sample.

The average value is then displayed within 3 seconds, to a basicaccuracy of 0.2%. DLRO 10X displays both forward and reversemeasurements as well as the average of the two.

DLRO 10X allows the user to set high and low pass limits, therebyenabling simple go-no-go testing.

At the end of a test DLRO10X will store the test results, as well asany notes relevant to the test.

To assist operator safety and ease of use, both instruments aresupplied complete with a pair of duplex handspikes with 1.2 m (4 ft) leads. One of the probes is fitted with LED’s, whichduplicate indicators on the instrument display indicating that allfour contacts have been made, the presence of a high voltageacross the load, and the presence of current flow while a load isdischarging. A full range of test leads is available with probes,clamps and Kelvin clips.

Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries power the instruments.The battery packs are interchange-able so that an exhaustedbattery may be recharged using the external charger suppliedwhile testing continues using a spare pack. Although full chargingwill take 4 hours, a fast charge mode allows the battery to be 90%charged within 2 1/2 hours from a 12 volt battery or from astandard 120/230 V AC supply via the supplied charger. Thebattery pack contains its own battery state indicator, which allowsthe charge-state to be monitored, even without being connectedto the instrument.

DLRO 10X is fitted with RS232 communications that will allowresults to be downloaded in real time or stored for later retrieval.

Up to 700 sets of results may be stored within DLRO 10Xcomplete with notes containing up to 200 characters which maybe added using the on board keypad. These results can also bedownloaded to a PC.

MEASUREMENT MODES:A variety of measurement modes are available. Since theintroduction of V2.0 firmware, Normal, Auto, Continuous andInductive mode are available on both the DLRO 10 and the DLRO 10X.

Auto current reversal cancels standing emfs

Protected to 600 V

Automatically detects continuity inpotential and current connections

DLRO 10 AND DLRO 10XDigital Microhmmeter

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Small, lightweight and portable - can be used in tight places,reduces the need for extra long leads and two personoperation.

Four terminal resistance method shows the true resistance ofthe item under test.

Bright LED (DLRO 10) and LCD (DLRO 10X) displays are easilyvisible under all lighting conditions and reduce human error.

Automatically applies forward and reverse currents which cancelout any standing voltages across the sample under test.

Checks for undue noise during measurement, reducing thepossibility of recording the incorrect result.

Automatically detects continuity in P and C circuits, preventingerroneously high reading to be taken due to high resistancecontact.

Battery module has a battery condition indicator allowing theuser to check the state of spare batteries without connecting tothe instrument.

RS232 connector on the DLRO 10X allows downloading ofresults in real time or stored for later retrieval.

DLRO 10 will display the average of the measurements achievedusing forward and reverse current, while DLRO 10X displays bothindividual measurements and the average.

Normal mode initiates a test by pressing the Test button on theinstrument front panel after connecting the test leads. Continuityof all four connections is checked, forward and reverse currentsare applied.

Auto mode allows forward and reverse current measurements tobe made and the average displayed simply by making contactwith all four probes. This mode is ideal when working with thesupplied handspikes. Each time the probes are removed andreconnected to the load another test will be performed withoutthe need to press the test button on the instrument.

Continuous mode allows repeated measurements to be made onthe same sample. Simply connect the test leads and press the testbutton. The measurement is updated every 3 seconds until thecircuit is broken.

Inductive mode is intended for use when measuring inductiveloads. When measuring inductive loads it is necessary to wait forthe voltage to stabilise. This means that the measurement couldtake a few seconds or several minutes. The test leads are firmlyconnected to the item to be measured and the Test button ispressed. The instrument will pass a current through the sampleand wait for the voltage to stabilise. If possible the current will beincreased. This procedure will be repeated until the voltagedetected falls into the range 15 mV to 200 mV. The instrument willthen continue to take readings, which will gradually decrease tothe true value as the voltage stabilises further. The operatordecides when the result is stable and presses the Test button toterminate the test. Measurement is made with forward current only.

Unidirectional mode, on DLRO 10X only, applies a current inone direction only. This does not enable any standing emfs to benegated but speeds up the measurement process. Test startsautomatically when probes are connected.

APPLICATIONS

The needs for accurate low resistance measurement are wellknown and very diverse. They range through Goods Receivinginspection of components to ground bonding and welded joints.Typical applications include, but are not limited to, making d.c.resistance measurements of:

Switch and contact breaker resistance

Busbar and cable joints

Aircraft frame bonds and static control circuits

Integrity of welded joints

Inter-cell connections on battery systems up to 600 V peak

Quality control of resistive components

Transformer and motor winding resistance

Rail and pipe bonds

Metal alloys, welds and fuse resistance

Graphite electrodes and other composites

Wire and cable resistance

Transmitter aerial and lightning conductor bonding

The DLROs are light enough to be worn around the neck. Theyare also small enough to be taken into areas which werepreviously too cramped for easy testing.

Page 42: Transformer a to Z Testing-Ready Catalogue

DESCRIPTIONThe TTR300 Series of three-phase transformer turns ratiotest sets are designed to measure the turns ratio of power,instrument, and distribution transformers in a substation ormanufacturing environment. A rugged and robust designmakes these instruments well suited for use in a variety ofharsh environments. Our leads are specially designed toprovide the necessary flexibility needed in cold weather.

The TTR300 Series are ideal for use by power transformermanufacturers. Their unique testing procedures andstorage capability allows an operator to set up and testdifficult three-phase transformers (with multiple tapchangers and bushing CTs) in a fraction of the time than itused to take with other TTRs. This test also includes apass/fail limit of individual ratios.

The TTR300 Series also measure the phase deviation of thetransformer primary versus secondary. This quicklyindicates problems in the transformer such as partialshorted turns and core faults. This measurement is alsouseful in verifying phase errors in all types of PTs and CTs.

Each unit comes equipped with a remote-control switchfor single person testing. This allows the operator to testtransformers with LTCs very quickly.

The Series consists of four instruments:

TTR300 The TTR300 is designed to be completely remotecontrolled via a PC running PowerDB LITE (included) orPowerDB (full version) PC software applications. TheTTR300 is field upgradeable to the TTR310, TTR320 orTTR330.

Some of the features of the TTR300 are:

Field upgradeable to a model TTR310, TTR320 orTTR330 without compromise to calibration

Other primary features of the TTR330 include threecommunications ports (two USB, one Ethernet). The USB“host” ports can be used for connecting directly to anoptional printer (to print full size 8.5” x 11” completed testforms) and for data storage to a USB memory device (forlater printing, analysis, archiving, and/or trending). TheEthernet port allows the TTR330 to interface (on a bi-directional basis) directly to a PC.

Page 44: Transformer a to Z Testing-Ready Catalogue

PowerDB™ ONBOARD Acceptance & Maintenance Test Data Management Software (Model TTR330only)The “PowerDB ONBOARD” logo means PowerDBsoftware is running on a computer embedded within theTTR330. This powerful feature provides the TTR330 with a common “User Interface” to minimize operator trainingand provides a seamless interface to the full PowerDB (PC version) application.

Easy-to-read on-screen test forms provide the userinterface for instrument set-up and test operation. Resultsare displayed against pass/fail nameplate limits and can bestored (either internally or to a USB storage device) in anopen XML data format.

The ONBOARD software also maintains a historical datafile so that, while in the field, current and past results canbe analyzed, compared, and displayed in trend chartswithout the need of an external computer. An 8.5” x 11”test form can also be printed in the field via an optionalUSB printer, and without the use of an external computer.

TTR®300 SeriesThree-Phase Transformer Turns Ratio Test Sets

APPLICATIONSThe TTR300 Series applies voltage to the high-voltagewinding of a transformer and accurately measures theresulting voltage from the low voltage winding. In additionto turns ratio, the units measure excitation current, phaseangle deviation between the high- and low-voltagewindings and percent ratio error.

Transformer Turns RatioTransformer turns ratio is the ratio of the number of turnsin the high-voltage winding to that in the low-voltagewinding. Complexity in the measured ratio versusnameplate ratio occurs with most three-phase powertransformers because multipliers such as √3 are required tomatch the measured ratio to the nameplate ratio. TheTTR300 Series automatically applies the multiplier in aform which allows the operator a direct comparison to thenameplate (or expected) ratio. The built-in calculatordisplays the % error versus nameplate for each tap andeach winding, without the need for a computer.

Exciting CurrentThe TTR provides accurate measurement of excitingcurrent (to 0.1 mA) which can help provide informationabout the condition of a transformer’s core. Unwantedcirculating currents or unintentional core grounds canincrease the exciting current and indicate a problem.

Phase Angle Deviation and its ApplicationThe phase angle deviation, displayed in either degrees(minutes) or radians, is the phase relationship between thevoltage signal applied to the high-voltage winding and thevoltage signal extracted from the low-voltage winding. Thephase deviation, together with ratio error, can be used as alow-cost method of verifying accuracy class of all types ofPTs and CTs at “zero burden.”

The phase deviation between the high and low side of atransformer is generally very small. If there is deteriorationor damage in the transformer core, however, the phasedeviation can change significantly. The three-phase TTRcan measure this phase relationship with the resolution of0.1 minutes (equal to 1/600 of a degree), which isnecessary to detect problems.

TTR™100Single-Phase Handheld TTR

DESCRIPTIONThe Megger TTR100 is an automatic single-phasehandheld, battery operated transformer turns ratio test setused to measure the turns ratio, excitation current, phasedisplacement, dc resistance and polarity of windings insingle- and three-phase distribution transformers (testedphase by phase), potential & current transformers, andtapped transformers. Deviations in the mentionedmeasurements will quickly indicate problems intransformer windings or in the magnetic core circuits.

The unique design of the TTR100 allows the user tooperate the test set while holding it in one hand. No othertransformer test set offers this capability. It effectivelyeliminates the user from having the kneel or bend over tooperate the instrument and speeds up testing time.

Realizing the extreme environments in which the TTR100must operate, special attention has been paid to making itextra rugged, with a high impact, shock resistant case, yetincredibly lightweight (3.3 lb). It weights less than anyother commercially available instrument on the market.

Its rugged and robust design makes this instrument wellsuited for use in a variety of harsh environments. TheTTR100 is particularly suited for testing in substations andtransformer-manufacturing environments where testingsingle and three-phase transformers can be performed.The TTR100 provides reliable results, helping the user indetermining the condition of the transformer under test. Itfeatures a high contrast LCD screen which can be seen inbright or ambient light.

The TTR100 comes equipped with specially designed leadswhich provide the necessary flexibility needed in allweather conditions.

This unit measures the highest turns ratio in the industrywith an accuracy of 0.1% or better and with the lowestexcitation voltage. No other instrument’s performance iscomparable that is commercially available today. Anotherexcellent feature of this TTR is the ability to accuratelymeasure phase deviation (in minutes or centiradians) ofthe transformer primary versus secondary. Thismeasurement is also useful in verifying phase errors in PTsand CTs.

The TTR100 features special software capabilities. It comesequipped with sufficient onboard memory to store up to200 test results (including test report header information)in the field for later retrieval, as well as 100 user-definedtransformer settings. Test results can be printed on anoptional serial printer whenever a hard copy is desired, orthe data can be downloaded to a PC. Identification ofindividual test readings is also easily done. The systemsoftware allows entry of the transformer alphanumericserial number, transformer type and tap information(numerical, alphabetical, or alpha-numerical) for each testperformed.

The TTR100 comes with a Windows® based softwareprogram that permits download of test data from theinstrument to a PC database. Data stored in the databasecan be retrieved at a later date and test reports can beprinted to assist in the preparation of management and/oranalysis reports. These reports are easily transmitted via e-mail.

TTR™100Single-Phase Handheld TTR

APPLICATIONSThe proper operation of a transformer relies almostentirely on the electrical properties of its windings. Toensure continued proper operation, transformers are testedto verify that their electrical properties have not changedfrom design specifications. A TTR is an extremely usefulinstrument for testing transformer windings because it canlocate several types of problems within a single- or athree-phase transformer. It is also ideal to use for testing inmeter shops for the inspection of CTs and PTs. It candetermine the no-load accuracy of CTs and PTs and alsodetermine the need to further test faulty CTs and PTs.

The TTR100 applies voltage, with voltage ratio beingdirectly proportional to turns ratio, to the high-voltagewinding of a transformer and accurately measures theresulting voltage from the low voltage winding. In additionto turns ratio, the unit measures excitation current, phaseangle deviation between the high and low voltagewindings, percent ratio error, dc winding resistance andpolarity.

Transformer Turns RatioTransformer Turns Ratio is the ratio of the number of turnsin the high voltage winding to that in the low voltagewinding.

A Transformer Turns Ratio Test Set such as the TTR100 candirectly measure the ratio of single phase, as well as threephase transformers. Transformer ratio can change due toseveral factors, including physical damage from faults,deteriorated insulation, contamination and shippingdamage. If a transformer ratio deviates more than 0.5percent from the rated voltage ratio, it may not operatereliably. To measure small ratio changes such as this, theaccuracy of a Megger TTR100 is needed.

Excitation CurrentThe TTR100 is capable of measuring exciting current byapplying voltage to one of the transformers windings. Anaccurate measurement of exciting current can provideinformation about the condition of a transformer’s core.Unwanted circulating currents or unintentional groundscan affect the exciting current and indicate a problem.

Phase Angle DeviationThe phase angle deviation is the relationship between thevoltage signal applied to the high voltage winding and thevoltage signal extracted from the low voltage winding.

The phase deviation between the high and low side of atransformer is generally very small. However, the phasedeviation can change significantly if there is deteriorationor damage in the transformer core. The TTR100 canmeasure this phase relationship with the resolutionnecessary to detect a problem.

Additional information about a transformer’s electricalproperties can be found in the IEEE Standard Test Codefor Transformers, C57.12.90, or by contacting Megger’stechnical support group.

Winding ResistanceMeasuring the DC resistance of transformer windings willaid in identifying problems such as shorted or openwindings, as well as loose connections.

The Megger TTR100 can measure the DC resistance ofboth single phase and three phase transformer windings.

Transformer PolarityPolarity of a distribution transformer becomes of interest inorder to determine its proper connection within a powernetwork.

The Megger TTR100 will identify subtractive and additivepolarity of the single-phase distribution transformers.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS Faster, easier handheld operation. User no longer has tokneel or bend down to operate the instrument.

Powered by rechargeable battery, provides up to fifteenhours of field operation.

Report header information such as company name,substation name, transformer manufacturer, transformerratio, operator, temperature and %RH can be entered andsaved via the alphanumeric keypad.

Measures the widest turns ratio range in the industry(20,000:1) with the highest accuracy (±0.1%, 0.8 to 2000) ata low excitation voltage.

Enables the operator to enter the ratio of the transformerand all of its taps. This allows the operator to knowimmediately when a tap is outside the acceptable limits sothat problem taps can be easily identified.

Records ratio errors for bushing CTs to an accuracy of±0.1% nameplate. This reduces the need for additional testequipment and improves set-up time.

Measures the phase deviation (in minutes, degrees orcentiradians) of the transformer primary versus secondary.This quickly indicates problems in the transformer such aspartial shorted turns and core faults. This measurement isalso useful in verifying phase errors in all types of PTs andCTs.

Perfect for meter shops, the TTR100 can be used forinspection purposes by using it to determine the no-loadaccuracy of most CTs and PTs. It also can be used todetermine the need to further test potentially faulty CTsand PTs.

The TTR100 is ideal for use by transformermanufacturers. Its unique testing procedures and storagecapability allows an operator to set up and test single andthree-phase transformers (with multiple tap changers andbushing CTs) in minimal time.

A “Quick Test” mode provides a fast determination ofthe turns ratio, excitation current, phase angle deviation,and winding resistance in single- and three-phasetransformers and CTs. In addition, polarity is provided forCTs and single-phase transformers.

Displays all measured and calculated values for each testincluding ratio, excitation current, ratio error, phase angledeviation, transformer vector group, winding resistanceand polarity thus providing comprehensive and conclusivedata

Automatic self-calibration for each test.

TTR™25Handheld TTR

DESCRIPTIONThe Megger TTR25 is an automatic hand-held batteryoperated transformer turns ratio test set. It is used tomeasure the turns ratio, excitation current and polarity ofwindings in single- and three-phase distribution and powertransformers (tested phase by phase), potential & currenttransformers, and tapped transformers.

The unique design of the TTR25 allows the user to operatethe test set while holding it in one hand. It effectivelyeliminates the user from having to kneel or bend down tooperate the instrument and speeds up testing time.Realizing the extreme environments in which the TTR25must operate, special attention has been paid to making itextra rugged, with a high impact, shock resistant case, yetincredibly lightweight at a mere 870 g (1.9 lbs).

Its design makes this instrument well suited for use in avariety of harsh environments. The TTR25 is particularlysuited for testing in substations, transformer-manufacturingenvironments, and meter shops. It features a high-contrast,backlit LCD screen which can be seen in bright or ambientlight.

This unit measures a high turns ratio of 20,000:1 accuratelywith the lowest excitation voltage. The excellentrepeatability of the TTR25 helps the users to determine thecondition of transformers under test. It is designed forsimple, one button operation with the measured resultsdisplayed directly on the easy to read LCD or printed tothe optional printer. The TTR25 needs no additionalsoftware and comes ready to use complete out of the box.

APPLICATIONSThe proper operation of a transformer relies almostentirely on the electrical properties of its windings. Toensure continued proper operation, transformers are tested

to verify that their electrical properties have not changedfrom design specifications. A TTR is an extremely usefulinstrument for testing transformer windings because it canhelp locate several types of problems within single- andthree-phase transformers.

It it used to determine the no-load accuracy of CTs andPTs and also determine the need to further test faulty CTsand PTs. The TTR25 applies voltage to the high-voltagewinding of a transformer and accurately measures theresulting voltage from the low voltage winding. The ratioof voltages is directly proportional to turns ratio. Inaddition, the unit measures excitation current and polarity.

Transformer Turns RatioA Transformer Turns Ratio Test Set such as the TTR25 candirectly measure the turns ratio of single-phasetransformers as well as three-phase transformers.Deviations in these measurements will quickly indicateproblems in transformer windings and in the magneticcore circuits. Transformer ratio can change due to severalfactors, including physical damage from faults, deterioratedinsulation, contamination and shipping damage. If atransformer ratio deviates more than 0.5 percent from therated voltage ratio, it may not operate reliably. To measuresmall ratio changes such as this, the accuracy of a MeggerTTR25 is needed.

Transformer PolarityPolarity of a distribution transformer becomes of interest inorder to determine its proper connection within a powernetwork. The Megger TTR25 will identify normal (inphase) and reverse polarity of the single-phasetransformers.

SINGLE-PHASE TTR®

TRANSFORMER TURNS RATIO TEST SET

Used for testing single phase power anddistribution transformers

Design based on precision bridgemeasuring technique

Available in hand-cranked or line-operatedmodels

Unmatched accuracy (0.1%) in a portabledesign

DESCRIPTIONThe Single Phase TTR Transformer Turns Ratio Test Setmeasures the turns ratio and exciting current of windings inpower, potential and current transformers. Deviations in turnsratio readings indicate problems in one or both windings orthe magnetic core circuit.

The TTR test set aids in identifying:

Shorted coils

Open circuits

Incorrect connections

Internal faults or tap-changer defects in step regulators aswell as in transformers.

The single phase model is available in either hand-crankedor line-operated versions and measures highly sensitiveturns ratios of up to 129.99:1 with accuracy of 0.1%. Anoptional auxilary transformer extends the ratio range to329.99:1.

The TTR set operates on the principle that the voltage ratio of thetransformer at no load is practically equal to the true turnsratio.

The major source of error in a transformer is a primary imped-ance drop due to magnetizing current, which is kept to aminimum by excitation at a fraction of rated voltage. Byemploying a design that meets both of these conditions alongwith the use of a null balance system, the turns ratio of atransformer can be determined accurately.

When measuring the turns ratio of distribution and powertransformers, the accuracy is well within 0.1%.

APPLICATIONSThe single phase models are primarily used for testing single-phase power and distribution transformers, for low-ratioreadings up to 129.99:1, or up to 329.99:1 with an auxiliarytransformer.

They also can be used to test three-phase transformers byconnecting and testing each phase separately.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS Available in hand-cranked or line-operated models, theseunits provide unmatched accuracy (0.1%) in a portabledesign.

Rack-mounted model is suitable for routine productiontesting by transformer manufacturers or repair shops. This unitis line-operated.

Line-operated model for shop or field testing is packagedin a rugged, metal case.

Measures highly sensitive turn ratios up to 129.99:1. Anoptional auxiliary transformer extends this ratio range to329.99:1.

MCTT-10Current Transformer Tester

DESCRIPTIONThe MCTT-10 test set is a portable unit for performingsaturation and ratio tests on current transformers using thevoltage-comparison method. Model MCTT-10 provides avariable voltage output and precision instrumentation fortesting single and multi-ratio CTs. All tests, saturation andratio – can be performed without changing any leads.Current transformers can be tested in their equipmentconfiguration, such as being mounted in transformers, oilcircuit breakers or switchgear. It is necessary for theequipment to be totally isolated from the electrical systemprior to testing.

Saturation and ratio tests are critical to ensure properelectrical system reliability. Saturation tests are performedon CT’s to make sure that when a fault occurs the propersecondary current signals are delivered to the protectivedevices. If a CT does not deliver proper secondarycurrent signals to a protective device because of coresaturation, it is probable that the protection scheme willnot operate correctly. A CT ratio test is performed toensure that the secondary current signals are proportionaland correct, in relation to the primary current.

APPLICATIONS

Saturation TestMCTT-10 provides a variable voltage output and digitalinstrumentation for measuring the excitation voltage andexcitation current, that results as the voltage applied to theCT under test is increased. As the CT under test begins tosaturate, a large increase in current will be detected for asmall increase in voltage.

Ratio TestThe ratio test is performed by comparing a voltage appliedto the secondary winding to the resulting voltageproduced on the primary winding. For example, if 1 voltper turn is applied to the secondary winding, the voltagepresent on the primary winding will be 1 volt. Morespecifically, if 120 volts were applied to the secondary of a600/5 current transformer (120:1 ratio), 1 volt will bepresent on the primary winding.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS The MCTT-10 utilizes the voltage comparison method.

This provides the user wth the ability to measure the CTratio without the heavy and large equipment needed totest a CT ratio using the current method. Many of thedevices using the current-comparison method exceed 100 lbs (45 kg). The MCTT-10 is only 37 lbs (16.8 kg).

A RUN/HOLD switch freezes readings on instrumentswhen switched to the HOLD position. This permits theuser to freeze all the MCTT-10 meters for simultaneousreadings.

A low range of 40 volts is provided for CTs that saturateat low voltages. A low voltage output range permits theMCTT-10 to test low saturation CT’s with the appropriateresolution.

The unit provides a high range of 1000 volts. Thisallows the MCTT-10 to test nearly all protection CT’swith high saturation knee points.

A zero-start interlock is incorporated in the unit. Thisminimizes the possibility of energizing the CT test with asudden high voltage, while under test.

present on the primary winding would be 1 volt. Morespecifically, if 120 volts were applied to the secondary of a600/5 current transformer (120:1 ratio), 1 volt would bepresent on the primary winding. This test is performedautomatically during a CT saturation test or manually withthe output control knob and metering display. TheMCT1600 will also provide the operator with a directreading ratio, thus removing the need to calculate CT ratio manually.

Polarity TestPolarity of the current transformer under test is indicated tothe operator by a simple “Correct” or “Incorrect” indicationon the display accompanied by the measured phase angle.

Demagnetization Normal operating conditions and typical winding resistancemeasurements can cause a CT to become magnetized.The MCT1600 has the ability to automatically demagnetizethe CT under test. This automatic demagnetization routineis useful to ensure that the CT Saturation test yield correctresults. Prior to testing demagnification is recommendedper ANSI C57.13.1.

Insulation Resistance TestIn order to ensure that the CT secondary wiring is properlyinsulated, the MCT1600 system includes a 500/1000Vinsulation resistance test system. This test ensures that theCT secondary winding and secondary wiring is properlyinsulated per ANSI C57.13.1.

Note: Disconnect all electronic loads before performingthis test.

ETP SYSTEM.

Evaluation of Power Transformers

Condition Based Maintenance (CBM)

Introduction

ETP System is a complete predictive

maintenance instrument for transformers, allowing us to detect the problems before

its unexpected appearance and to remove the high costs of urgent maintenance actions, transport and non-planned

downtime.

The normal operation of a transformer can be altered by several factors. Diagnostic systems are based on the periodic realization of tests that try to determinewhen a problem can occur. These

problems can affect from an abnormal way to some or several of transformer components. Evaluation and diagnostic

systems can be electrical or physical-chemical. ETP System are based on electrical test that can determine: Liquid and solid condition Electric circuit condition

Magnetic Core condition Winding displacement

The advantage provided by ETP System is

to allow a predictive maintenance

philosophy, where corrective actions can

be programmed with enough time and in a more efficient manner. This kind of maintenance is being introduced in all

companies with big electrical machines. The ETP System introduction produces a

maintenance costs reduction .

ETP System makes several measurements with the capacity of detect and confirm possible problems in each transformer's

part:

Core

Windings Integrity Liquid and solid insulation system Internal windings position Regulator

Page 96: Transformer a to Z Testing-Ready Catalogue

ETP System

2/13ETP

ETP System is applicable to any kinds of transformers :

Power transformers Distribution transformer

Autotransformers Measurement transformer (only

voltage) Single or three-phase.

Each problem that can be detected in the transformers will come in many situations

indicated at least by two measurements, making easier the decision process. ETP System carries out the following measurements:

Automatic three-phase turns ratio. Recovery voltage test/Insulation

Resistance test/Polarization Index.

Automatic three-phase winding resistance test with temperature correction.

Short circuit impedance.

In addition to the easy friendly use and guided test, all results generated by ETP

System, as numeric values and graphics are automatically stored. When a test is finished, a full report can be printed or

saved so that it can be treated by two methods of evaluation:

Direct diagnostic, with the parameters obtained at the finish of each test.

Trend analysis to follow the evolution of the parameters to determine if we

are on a risky zone.

Description

A variety of stresses occur during the lifetime of transformers, arising from

mechanical, electrical, contamination effects and lightning discharges in

thunderstorms. Of among these, it is necessary to highlight the following ones:

Opening and closing of breakers Short circuit

Earth connection Continuous overloads Transie nt overloads

These lead to a number of different failure modes with perhaps catastrophic results, Quality of Service (QoS), economical and technical.

Besides, as much the materials variety as

the manufacturing process mediating on the complexity of transformers.

The ideal situation would be to do the first test soon after the machine installation but

the most of times it is impossible. Anyway the first ETP test that you

perform will give you a complete information about the transformer state

and therefor e the actions that you might carry out on it, being a perfect start point to monitoring the transformer ageing.

After this first test, if you test routinely

and keep records of the results generated by ETP System, you can keep track of the condition of the transformer as it

deteriorates over time.

The recommended time between test will depend on the machine status: a very old or damaged machine must be tested in

shorter periods than a new or very good status one. Repeating the test regularly for

routine maintenance yearly may be appropriate if it is essential to keep the apparatus in operation at all times. Testing

at one to four years intervals may be sufficient for other

Page 97: Transformer a to Z Testing-Ready Catalogue

ETP System

3/13ETP

applications. You should also test the transformer before and after a repair has been performed on the equipment before it is re-energized.

Field experience and economics

ETP System and its diagnostic criteria is based on a theoretical principles and a great field testing experience.

ETP System was developed in collaboration with Iberdrola, a major

European utility, over ten years using results from testing over 10000 transformers. Several utilities and services companies have adopted ETP System all around the world.

Costs of unexpected failure, including

repair and transportation of almost any kind of transformer easily justify ETP inversion.

ETP Method

It’s very important in order to make predictive maintenance that all tests will be comparative in time, removing all the mistakes caused by measuring instrument,

user, and environme nts factors. The manage to make this, is using automatic measure systems and closed tests, in

which user hasn’t got any possibility of chance and the measured values are standardised automatically in external

factors like temperature.

ETP System is very simple to use. A lot of measuring instruments failed in it’s own difficulty. All ETP measuring units are

running in the same way, guiding the user in all testing and analysing process.

The ETP technique takes all measurements under Windows

T M based

PC control, which prompts the user during test process including the correct connections to the transformer under test, so the testing is easy to carry out.

The best feature of this system comes in three-phase transformer with regulator due

to measuring test spe ed. In addition, the

individual and compound values are displayed at the same time corrected in temperature. This involves less time, not only in test time so information

processing and inform generating as well.

Advantages of ETP System

Predictive maintenance. Maintenance costs reduction.

Higher availability. High Reliability.

Ten years maturity. Two measures for detection and

confirmation of each problem.

Speed measures without machine danger.

User friendly environment and guided operation.

Eliminate human error.

Graphic and numeric data visualization

Modular equipment easy to carry. Values and data are saved and

organized automatically.

Computer aided test control through RS232 line and specific software.

Information obtained

The ETP System measures several parameters that allow us to characterize

a transformer. The anomalies in these parameters or in their evolution could

be symptom of a failure. It is very important to perform a stage of tests during the life of each transformer that

indicates us its evolution.

These parameters are based in theoretical principles and experienced by qualified engineers for 10 years of testing and trending in more than 10000

transformers.

The following table shows how ETP System detects and confirms each possible damage on a transformer.

ETP System units can be classified in two groups, in function of the testing signal. There are two equipments that make test with AC current to the frequency of the

mains (50 or 60 Hz): UM1B and UM5B. On the other hand, UM2B and UM3B that make DC test.

UM1B: Transformer Turns Ratio Meter

The UM1B is a unit to measure the turns ratio of power and distribution

transformers or autotransformers both mono-phase and three-phase.

For measuring the turns ratio, the unit applies the voltage test to the high voltage winding of the transformer and measures the voltage induced in the low

voltage winding. The equipment also measures the excitation current and phase angle deviation between the

different magnitudes: V1, V2 and I1.

As voltage used is far from the transformer nominal voltage, this test is

totally non-destructive for the machine. With the turns ratio measurement it is

possible to detect problems in the transformer like:

- Partial shorted turns.- Cut winding.

- Regulator defect.- Problem in magnetic core.

The following graphs illustrate the main features of UM1B equipment.

UM3B: Transformer Windings Resistance Tester

UM3B is a low resistance ohmmeter specially designed for the resistance measurement of transformers windings

and single and/or three-phaseautotransformers of any variety.

In a single test, UM3B provides the simple and compound resistance value for

each winding: both high and low voltage and tertiary. Furthermore, to calculate the

results, the system takes into account the transformer connection group, and thetemperature at which the test is carried out, as such results are provided at the reference temperature specified by the

operator.However this equipment is also suitable to pure ohmic resistance and windings

resistance of rotating machine measurements.The UM3B unit permits to do the following measurements automatically:

Winding resistance on the three phases.

Resistance values corrected in temperature.

Calculations of individual and compound resistance values ( or Y).

The measurement technique used is the metric ratio resistance method (measured

on four wires). This technique presents a series of advantages, such as:

Immunity against the variations in the values of the measuring circuit

components. Immunity against temperature

changes. Immunity against variations in test

current.

ETP System: Testing Procedure

One of the advantages of the system is the application software that facilitates the complete evaluation of the transformer in a short time and with

reliable and traceable results.

Main Menu

Thanks to main menu, it is possible to access to the desired application to carry

out a test, as well as to the diagnostic and trends tools.

Main Menu.

Test's organization

The applications of every equipment use a common test

data storage system. When a test is started, some registers must

be filled in order to guarantee a correct storage and following identification.

Machine Identification.

If the machine has just been tested sometime, only the serial number would

be needed to restore all identification and technical data, and to store the new test in the same folder, making automatically the machine’s historic log. In order to find and observe the results, ETP System

carries out a search based on transformer's serial number and test date.

Technical machine data scre en

ETP System stores all data in relation to the machine under test. This information is shared for all units and only has to be

filled at the first made test. Application software will interpret these data in order

to guide the user in the connection of thedevice under test.

Guided Menu

Software shows the operator a logical

flow of steps both in test and analysis

process. Each application guides the worker and assures that the test is always

made in the same way independently of the worker.

Software shows during all process the connections, precautions that the worker

has to take and the actual state (measuring, printing, etc), being very interactive with the worker.

ETP System carries out an automatic

measurement of different parameters and displays the results clearly on the PC screen. Also, it generates a report of the

equipment tested. All technical data for the current and previous tests (perhaps

over a period of years) are presented in a structured manner. The clear presentation of these reports makes interpretation of

the results straightforward and facilitates predictive maintenance techniques

ETP DiagHelp

In order to make diagnostic easier, ETP

DiagHelp makes a complete evaluation of transformers using the diagnostic criteria

with the parameters and measurements made by ETP System.

The diagnostic criteria are based on theoretical principles and in the experience acquired by personnel of Iberdrola and Unitronics during the la st 10

years, with more than 10.000 rehearsals in power transformers.

This application recovers the file generated after the test applying

automatically the diagnostic criteria giving both the problem and its gravity.

ETP Trends

ETP Trends tool has been developed to follow the evolution of the tested

machines by ETP System. The trend of a parameter to change gives us information that something is wrong in the machine. In these cases, it will be necessary to make more frequently test and correlate

them with ETP DiagHelp.

ETP Trends shows the results both in

FRAX 101Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer

DESCRIPTIONPower transformers are some of the most vital componentsin today’s transmission and distribution infrastructure.Transformer failures cost enormous amounts of money inunexpected outages and unscheduled maintenance. It isimportant to avoid these failures and make testing anddiagnostics reliable and efficient.

The FRAX 101 Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer(SFRA) detects potential mechanical and electricalproblems that other methods are unable to detect. Majorutilities and service companies have used the FRA methodfor more than a decade. The measurement is easy toperform and will capture a unique “fingerprint” of thetransformer. The measurement is compared to a reference“fingerprint” and gives a direct answer if the mechanicalparts of the transformer are unchanged or not. Deviationsindicate geometrical and/or electrical changes within thetransformer.

FRAX 101 detects problems such as:

Winding deformations and displacements

Shorted turns and open windings

Loosened clamping structures

Broken clamping structures

Core connection problems

Partial winding collapse

Faulty core grounds

Core movements

Hoop buckling

APPLICATIONPower transformers are specified to withstand mechanicalforces from both transportation and in-service events, suchas faults and lightning. However, mechanical forces mayexceed specified limits during severe incidents or whenthe insulation’s mechanical strength has weakened due toaging. A relatively quick test where the fingerprintresponse is compared to a post event response allows fora reliable decision on whether the transformer safely canbe put back into service or if further diagnostics isrequired.

Collecting fingerprint data using Frequency Response Analysis (FRA) is aneasy way to detect electro-mechanical problems in power transformersand an investment that will save time and money.

Page 111: Transformer a to Z Testing-Ready Catalogue

Method BasicsA transformer consists of multiple capacitances,inductances and resistors, a very complex circuit thatgenerates a unique fingerprint or signature when testsignals are injected at discrete frequencies and responsesare plotted as a curve.

Capacitance is affected by the distance betweenconductors. Movements in the winding will consequentlyaffect capacitances and changethe shape of the curve.

The SFRA method is based oncomparisons betweenmeasured curves wherevariations are detected. OneSFRA test consists of multiplesweeps and reveals if thetransformer’s mechanical orelectrical integrity has beenjeopardized.

Practical Application In its standard application, a“finger print” reference curvefor each winding is captured when the transformer is newor when it is in a known good condition. These curves canlater be used as reference during maintenance tests orwhen there is reason to suspect a problem.

The most reliable method is the time based comparisonwhere curves are compared over time on measurementsfrom the same transformer. Another method utilizes typebased comparisons between “sister transformers” with thesame design. Lastly, a construction based comparison can,under certain conditions, be used when comparingmeasurements between windings in the same transformer.

These comparative tests can be performed 1) before andafter transportation, 2) after severe through faults 3) beforeand after overhaul and 4) as diagnostic test if you suspectpotential problems. One SFRA test can detect windingproblems that requires multiple tests with different kinds oftest equipment or problems that cannot be detected withother techniques at all. The SFRA test presents a quick andcost effective way to assess if damages have occurred or ifthe transformer can safely be energized again. If there is aproblem, the test result provides valuable information thatcan be used as decision support when determining furtheraction.

Having a reference measurement on a mission criticaltransformer when an incident has occurred is, therefore, avaluable investment as it will allow for an easier and morereliable analysis.

Analysis and SoftwareAs a general guideline, shorted turns, magnetization andother problems related to the core alter the shape of thecurve in the lowest frequencies. Medium frequenciesrepresent axial or radial movements in the windings andhigh frequencies indicate problems involving the cablesfrom the windings, to bushings and tap changers.

FRAX 101Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer

Considerations When Performing SFRAMeasurementsSFRA measurements are compared over time or betweendifferent test objects. This accentuates the need to performthe test with the highest repeatability and eliminates theinfluence from external parameters such as cables,connections and instrument performance. FRAX offers allthe necessary tools to ensure that the measured curverepresents the internal condition of the transformer.

Good ConnectionsBad connections cancompromise the test resultswhich is why FRAX offers arugged test clamp thatensures good connection tothe bushings and solidconnections to theinstrument.

Shortest BraidConceptThe connection from the cable shield to ground has to bethe same for every measurement on a given transformer.Traditional ground connections techniques have issueswhen it comes to providing repeatable conditions. Thiscauses unwanted variations in the measured response forthe highest frequencies that makes analysis difficult.

The FRAX braid drops down from the connection clampnext to the insulating discs to the ground connection at the base of the bushing. This creates near identicalconditions every time you connect to a bushing whether it is tall or short.

The Power of WirelessFRAX 101 uses class 1 Bluetooth® wireless communication.Class 1 Bluetooth® has up to 100 m range and is designedfor industrial applications. An optional internal batterypack is available for full wireless flexibility. Shorter andmore light-weight cables can be used when the user isliberated from cable communication and power supplycables.

A standard USB interface (galvanically isolated) is includedfor users who prefer a direct connection to their PC.

IMPORT AND EXPORTThe FRAX software can import data files from other FRAinstruments making it possible to compare data obtainedusing another FRA unit. FRAX can import and export dataaccording to the international XFRA standard format aswell as standard CSV and TXT formats.

Optimized Sweep SettingThe software offers the user an unmatched feature thatallows for fast and efficient testing. Traditional SFRAsystems use a logarithmic spacing of measurement points.This results in as many test points between 20Hz and200Hz as between 200KHz and 2MHz and a relatively longmeasurement time.

The frequency response from the transformer contains afew resonances in the low frequency range but a lot ofresonances at higher frequencies. FRAX allows the user tospecify less measurement points at lower frequencies andhigh measurement point density at higher frequencies.The result is a much faster sweep with greater detailwhere it is needed.

Variable VoltageThe applied test voltage may affect the response at lowerfrequencies. Some FRA instruments do not use the 10 Vpeak-to-peak used by major manufacturers and this maycomplicate comparisons between tests. FRAX standardvoltage is 10 V peak-to-peak but FRAX also allows theuser to adjust the applied voltage to match the voltageused in a different test.

FTB 101Several international FRA guides recommends to verify theintegrity of cables and instrument before and after a testusing a test circuit with a known FRA response suppliedby the equipment manufacturer. FRAX comes with a fieldtest box FTB101 as a standard accessory and allows theuser to perform this important validation in thefield at any timeand securemeasurementquality.

The laptop can be operated by touch screen and the communication iswireless via Bluetooth. Measurement ground braids connect close to theconnection clamps and run next to the bushing to the flange connectionto avoid cable loops that otherwise affect the measurement.

IDAX 300Insulation Diagnostic Analyzer

Fast and accurate moisture assessment inpower transformers

Well proven technology; IDA/IDAX unitshave been in field use for more than 10years

Reliable results at any temperature

Automated analysis of moisture contentand oil conductivity — decisions at yourfinger tip

True frequency domain measurement forhighest noise immunity

Performs non-intrusive insulation testingof transformers, bushings, cables andgenerators

IDAX 300Insulation Diagnostic Analyzer

DESCRIPTIONIDAX 300 provides an accurate and reliable conditionassessment of insulation in transformers, bushings,generators and cables. The IDAX 300 system maximizesthe outcome of maintenance activities allowing for loadand service life optimization.

IDAX 300 is smaller, lighter and faster than its predecessorIDAX 206. It maintains the same accuracy and ability toprovide reliable data using true DFR (Dielectric FrequencyResponse), also known as FDS (Frequency DomainSpectroscopy), without compromises. The state-of-the-artsoftware makes testing both easier and faster, allowingtransformer moisture assessment in less than 18 minutes.

IDAX 300 measures the capacitance and tan delta/powerfactor of the insulation between power transformerwindings at multiple frequencies. Plotting the results as acurve makes it possible to assess the condition of the oiland solid insulation, assess the moisture level in the solidinsulation and other potential insulation problems. The testcan be performed at any temperature.

APPLICATIONWith an aging power transformer population, today’selectrical utility industry faces a tough challenge astransformer failures and consequent repair and revenueloss costs millions of dollars. Transformers have becomeone of the most mission critical components in theelectrical grid. The need for reliable monitoring anddiagnostic methods drives the world’s leading experts toevaluate new technologies that improve reliability andoptimize the use of every grid component [1].

IDAX is a revolutionary insulation diagnostic instrumentbased on DFR (Dielectric Frequency Response), alsoknown as FDS (Frequency Domain Spectroscopy). Thisanalysis technique has been used in laboratories fordecades and IDA/IDAX was the first instrument designedfor field use (1997). The IDA/IDAX instrument andmeasurement principle has been used and verified aroundthe world over the last ten years.

One of the most important applications for IDAX is todetermine the moisture content in transformer insulation.Moisture in the insulation significantly accelerates theaging process. Moisture can cause bubbles betweenwindings, resulting in catastrophic failures. IDAX providesreliable moisture assessments in one test. The test can bemade at any temperature and takes less than 18 minutes.

Decisions on maintenance and/or replacement should bebased on knowing the condition of the insulation and theexpected loading of the unit. Adding just a few operationalyears to the expected end-of-life for a transformer,generator or cable by optimizing the working conditionbased on reliable diagnostic data means substantial costsavings for the equipment owner.

The FDS technology can also be used to assess thecondition and aging of the insulation in bushings, CTs andcircuit breakers. Numerous ongoing research projects atinstitutes and universities around the world is addingexperience and value to users of IDAX.

Page 118: Transformer a to Z Testing-Ready Catalogue

Water in Oil vs. PaperAssessing reliable moisture content in transformerinsulation based on oil sample tests is unreliable as thewater migrates between the solid insulation and oil astemperature changes. An oil sample has to be taken atrelatively high temperature and when the transformer is inequilibrium. Unfortunately, this is a rare state fortransformers thus resulting in unreliable assessments.

Figure 1 shows how the significant and potentially criticaldifference of 0.5% respectively 3.0% moisture in paper,correlates to the insignificant difference of 1 respectively 4Parts Per Million (PPM) in an oil sample obtained at 20oC(68oF) [2].

The TestDielectric loss or power factor is frequency andtemperature dependent, so by injecting test signals atdiscrete frequency steps typically between 1 kHz and 1-2mHz while recording results at each point, a curve iscreated (Fig 2).

This profile represent the properties of the insulationmaterial in the transformer and will be used in furtheranalysis as described below. The oil temperature isrecorded to be used in the model analysis describedbelow.

The ModelThe insulation between the windings in a transformerconsists of a solid and a liquid part. The solid part consistsof barriers and spacers to create an oil duct for coolingpurposes (Fig 3). The model formula varies all insulationparameters to simulate every possible geometrical design.The model also applies Arrhenius equation to compensatefor temperature dependence in the material [3].

The IDAX software creates new model curves andcompares them to the measured curve until the bestpossible match is reached. The final results are presentedas a percent of moisture in paper and a separate value foroil conductivity (Fig 4 and 5).

What Controls the Curve?The general rule is that moisture is visible in the highestand in lowest frequencies. Oil conductivity is dominant inthe medium frequency and the temperature shifts the curveto the right and to the left respectively (Fig 6).

IDAX 300Insulation Diagnostic Analyzer

One Point Is Not EnoughTraditional tan delta/power factor testing provides onevalue at mains frequency 50/60 Hz. This is where theIDAX method makes the difference. Figure 7 show that asingle power factor value cannot provide conclusiveinformation about the potential problem. At best it canprovide information that a problem exists. In this example,two transformers have the same power factor value at 60Hz. However, one of them is wet (3.6%) and should beconsidered for a dry-out while the oil in the other unitshould be replaced or refurbished. The IDAX methodprovides accurate and conclusive information in one test.

Test ProcedureThe test preparation and procedure is similar to a standardtan delta/power factor test, which means that thetransformer has to be off-line and preferably disconnected.

The IDAX software operates on Windows XP and Vistaand utilizes standard USB communication. The softwareguides the user through a test template where allconnections are illustrated in Figure 8. Color markings onclamps makes it easy to connect according to the built ininstructions. The test can be started as soon as the testcables are connected. Error messages on the screen informthe user if there are any problems with connections orcables.

IDAX 300, in the standard version, is equipped with aninput circuitry capable of measuring multiple test modeswithout having to change cable connections on thetransformer. As an option, the IDAX 300 can be equippedwith an additional current measurement channel thatallows for two completely independent measurements atthe same time, thus minimizing test time.

The calibration set enables simple and reliable calibrationof the IDAX system. It also reduces instrument downtimeand transport cost as the calibration box is the only partthat needs to be sent in for calibration. The new designallows calibration in any local certified calibration facilityto avoid long shipment turn-around times and transportcosts.

ConclusionIDAX is a well-proven system for determining moisturecontent in transformer insulation. The instrument andmethod including the modeling software has been testedand verified with numerous customers.

The software allows for standard PD Test Reports to be automatically generated.

A PC software version is also provided to allow post-analysis of the PD Data on any PC

Page 129: Transformer a to Z Testing-Ready Catalogue

Page 2 of 6 June 2007

ScopeControl© PD Pulse Capture Software

This allows the user to collect individual PD pulses from up to 4 channels simultaneously enabling the user to carry out time-of-flight measurements of PD pulse arrival on a number of PD sensors at once.

ScopeControlReader© PD Pulse Analysis and Reportage Software

This reads the individual PD pulses collected by the ScopeControl© software from up to 4 channels simultaneously enabling the user to carry out post-test analysis of the PD data collected in the field.

A PC version of this software is also provided to allow post-analysis of the PD Data on any PC owned by the customer.

Free upgrades on the above software packages are provided for 12-months from the date of purchase. Software support packages are available beyond this 12-month period on request.

PDGold©

The PDGold© program (Main Page shown below) contains all the functions that allow control of the OSM-Longshot instrument, to set the correct values of the acquisition parameters, to acquire and visualise the PD dataset in order to get an immediate diagnostic response.

PDGOLD© PD ACQUISITION SOFTWARE - MAIN PAGE

The PDGold© software collects the PD data in 200x ‘slots’ across the 50Hz (or 60Hz) power cycle, one cycle at a time, followed by a processing stage of a few seconds, followed by the acquisition and processing of a second cycle and so on.

Each signal acquired is synchronised by the AC mains voltage waveform supply (or other volatge signal). The software thus allows the user to observe this 360o plot of the PD behaviour showing both the individual 20ms ‘shots’ and the cumulative measurements of all those taken up to that point, in ‘real-time’.

For the standard PDGold© measurement this would be left to run typically for 3 to 5 minutes with around 100 to 200 individual power cycles usually saved.

1.0 OSM-Longshot© PD Spot Testers

OSM PD Spot Testers listed contain the Standard PDGold© Software which has used been used in the IPEC PD Spot Testers for the past 5 years.

• The PD Gold© Software’s functionality includes:

Capture of signals synchronously across the 50Hz (or 60Hz) power cycle

Provides a PD (partial discharge) threshold level for recording the number of pulses (count) per cycle

• Noise waveforms using a second channel can be used for ‘gating’ external pulsed interference

The software divides the power period into slots, and the peak signal is then detected for each slot, allowing the user to observe familiar phase-related patterns of discharge.

PD levels are given in mV and dB as standard and also in pC for cable testing when used with calibrated HFCT’s.

• A new event recogniser system is incorporated into the analysis software

Keeps segments of the PD waveforms

Classifies these PD pulses into three types: Cable PD, Switchgear PD and Noise.

This can often eliminate the need for background noise reduction.

A machine page is available for testing high voltage rotating machines (motors/generators)

• Full print preview page for outputting results to printers or adobe pdf files

The spot tester is designed for a wide variety of use including on-line PD Testing of the insulation in HV Cables, Switchgear, Transformers, Motors/Generators and other HV Plant.

It is very able to measure on-line PD activity, and the system is offered with a variety of sensors for this type of work.

The system is also capable of accurate laboratory measurements, where synchronous voltage measurements and PD calibrations are needed. The time for which measurements can be recorded is only limited by the internal RAM of the PC.

It is not unusual to run the system for several hours up to a week, with continuous data monitoring.

The 1.0 OSM-Longshot© PD Spot Testers unit is not sold primarily as a monitoring device (it’s primary use being PD ‘Spot Testing’.

These spot testers are not specifically designed to be permanently installed and driven remotely, and whilst this is entirely feasible, other options are available for the permanent monitoring application.

The PDGold© Longshot system can be considered as the most versatile (and best) PD spot testing device on the market.

It is generally regarded that PD monitoring should be carried out by permanently installed PD Monitors with web/remote access (for information on long-term PD Monitoring Technologies contact your supplier).

The applications for on-line testing tend to be plant specific. Hence there are cable related parts to the event recogniser analysis. Here the results can be expressed in pC so that discharges on all cable types, and at all detectable distances down the cable, can be compared in magnitude.

There are also switchgear related parts to this, where the results can be expressed in dB to relate back to the traditional way switchgear PD results were displayed.

OTS60PB, 60AF/2, 80AF/2, 100AF/2, VCM100Automatic Oil Test Sets

DESCRIPTION

The Megger range of automatic oil testers offer fullyautomatic testing with many advanced features. The designallows the operator to simply prepare an oil test vessel,load it with the sample oil, place it in the chamber andinitiate the test sequence. The test set then carries out, theseries of tests as specified in a large number of oil testingspecifications. These define the sequence of tests includingthe stand and stir times, rate of voltage rise and number oftests resulting in a calculation of the average value of theoil breakdown strength. Withstand or proof testing canalso be selected. This test subjects the oil to a preselectedvoltage for 1 minute to check for a breakdown.

The OTS60PB is a fully automatic, battery powered,portable oil test set. The test voltage is electronicallycontrolled to the maximum of 60 kV. Designed for on sitetesting, the instrument is supplied in a rugged carryingcase with a handle for ease of transportation. An internalrechargeable battery gives a large number of tests beforerecharging. A clear display shows a menu of test optionsand guides the operator through the set up programme,illustrates the correct test electrodes and gap to use, showsthe progress of each test and gives the results of the testsequence. The result can be set to give either a numericalaverage (with standard deviation where specified) or apass/fail message. The display can be set to read inEnglish, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese.An optional printer kit enables hard copies of results to beproduced. Accessories, such as the battery charger, sparevessels, spare electrodes and a spacing gauge are located

in an attached compartment. Stirring is carried out by amotor driven paddle stirrer.

The OTSAF/2 range are laboratory instruments with manyadvanced features. Three versions are available withmaximum test voltages of 60 kV, 80 kV and 100 kV. Theyoffer fully automatic operation plus the benefit of a builtin printer to produce a hard copy of the test results andthe ability to program up to five user defined tests forindividual applications. The withstand test can be set tooperate at any test voltage and with an initial stand time.The dot matrix liquid crystal display can also be set toread in one of six languages. An oil test vessel, configuredto suit the IEC156 test specification, is supplied with theinstrument.

A large, backlit, liquid crystal display shows test menus,set up screens and results. The resolution of the highvoltage output is displayed to 0,1 kV.

Results can be printed on the internal dot matrix printer ortransferred via the RS232 interface to an external printer orPC. Printouts are automatically time and date stamped.

Standard stirring with the OTSAF/2 is achieved by amagnetic stirrer bar. Additional vessels are availableoptionally, including one suitable for testing to the ASTMD1816 specification. This calls for stirring to be carried outby a motor driven impeller. Each test can be selected witheither magnetic stirring, propeller stirring or no stirring.

The VCM100 is a calibration meter suitable for verifyingthe calibration of oil test sets. The meter will enable the

high voltage output to be checked, traceable to nationalstandards, and is suitable for all recent laboratory modelsof Megger oil dielectric strength test sets such as theOTSAF series and the OTS auto and semi automatic series.

The calibration meter fits in the oil test set chamber inplace of a standard vessel. The design ensures that theload to the transformer is similar to the load during an oildielectric strength test. The voltage indication is viewed onan analogue display marked from 0 to 100 kV with 2 kVdivisions. The scale also shows pass tolerance bands toenable a quick assessment of the accuracy to be made.The meter is supplied in a protective bag.

Oil test sets will display the individual breakdown voltageand their average value. The VCM100 allows the actualapplied voltage to be quickly and easily checked againstthe displayed value giving immediate confidence in thecalibration of the oil test set.

OTS/VCM100 Allows a quick check of high voltage output to be made` Tests up to 100 kV with accuracy of 3% Easy to read mirror arc display with tolerance bands

OPERATION

The OTSAF/2 series are programmed with a test sequencesuitable for using the VCM100 called ‘CHECKCALIBRATION’. This sequence causes the output of the oiltest set to ramp up from 0 kV to the maximum voltagevalue, pausing at each 10 kV point for 10 seconds to allowthe calibration to be checked.

Other versions of Megger oil test sets (such as the OTSAF,OTS60 auto and OTS75 auto) can be used in manualmode or with a low rate of voltage rise to allow checking

with the VCM100. Later versions of the OTSAF also havethe ‘CHECK CALIBRATION’ procedure.

KF875 optimized for insulating oil and tests to 0.875, completely portable

KF-UNI offers greater flexibility,versatility and sample data input than the KF875; also completely portable

KF-LAB analyzes materials with an SGbetween 0.6 & 1.4, plus insulating oilswith an SG of 0.875

Suitable for use with any CoulometricKarl Fischer reagent

KF875, KF-UNI and KF-LAB Karl Fischer Moisture in Oil Test Sets

DESCRIPTIONOver 20 years experience has led to the development ofthe Megger KF875, KF-UNI and KF-LAB Coulometric KarlFischer Test Sets designed to determine moisture in oil, to provide highly accurate results on-site. The KF875 andKF-UNI are highly portable instruments, complete withintegral printer and carrying case, are easy to use andprovide highly accurate results. The KF-LAB unit isdesigned specifically for lab use is mains powered onlyand does not include a built-in battery or carrying case.

APPLICATIONOptimized for testing insulating oils with a specific gravityof 0.875, the Megger KF875 simply requires the operatorto press one button and inject a 1ml sample into the testcell. The simple ‘one touch’ operation makes the KF875so easy to use that it requires no specialist knowledge ortraining to use it effectively. Results are presented on theinstrument display and on the integral printer in bothmicrograms of water and in milligrams per kilogram (parts per million, ppm).

The KF-UNI allows the titration of samples with a range of specific gravities from 0.60 to 1.40 and also permits theuse of different sample sizes. The printer may be disabled

if not required and results can be calculated in ppm,mg/kg, % and micrograms. For extra flexibility, theresults may be calculated based on the weight of thesample or based on the volume and specific gravity of the sample.

The KF-LAB analyzes materials with an SG between 0.6 and 1.4, but also has a default setting optimized foranalyzing insulating oils with an SG of 0.875. This meansit can be used to measure water content in a variety ofdifferent materials but is also easy to set up for transformerinsulating oils.

KF875, KF-UNI and KF-LAB Karl Fischer Moisture in Oil Test Sets

FEATURES AND BENEFITS The KF875 and KF-UNI are highly portable and

designed specifically for outdoor use - both units aresupplied as standard with a printer, low drift cell andrugged carry case. Portability is further enhanced withflexible power options - both units can be poweredfrom the mains supply, from the internal rechargeablebattery or via a 12V car adapter.

Each unit eliminates inaccuracies with ACE ControlSystem - some Coulometric Karl Fischer sets aresusceptible to inaccuracies due to changes in electrolysiscell resistance, which requires frequent checking of thetitrator efficiency by analyzing known water contentstandards. The KF875, KF-UNI and the KF-LAB removethis need by using the patent pending ACE(Automatically Compensated Errors) Control System. Thisguarantees that the electrolysis current produced and thecount rate displayed are always correctly synchronized,regardless of changes to the electrolysis cell resistancethus eliminating the need to calibrate the reagent.This further adds to the instruments’ remarkable user-friendliness and ease of use.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

OF THE VACUUM OIL TREATMENT PLANT

TYPE THV 3000

OIL TREATMENT I–BETH49GB_0 page 1/5

TYPE THV 3000

Oil treatment

The plants type THV

have been designed to treat di-

electric oils having a 50 ppm

moisture content and a dissolved

gas content of approx. 10% by

volume before being treated.

Once the optimal treatment condi-

tions have been reached, the clean

treated oil goes out after 1 pass at

a maximum temperature of 70°C

with a moisture content below

5 ppm* and a dissolved gas con-

tent of approximately 0.1% by

volume*. This restores the oil di-

electric strength to a value in excess of 75 kV

after treatment. Starting from 20 ppm, mois-

ture content will go down to 3 ppm* after 1

pass. The above figures are reached with oils

having a 10-2 mbar distillation curve at a tem-

perature of 80° C.

PREAMBLE

The efficient and reliable use

of dielectric fluids in trans-

formers, circuit breakers and

other types of electrical

equipments depends upon

some of their basic charac-

teristics, which in service

may be affected, resulting in

reduced operating efficiency

of the electrical equipments.

In order to act as an insu-

lant, a coolant and an ex-

tinguishing medium, dielec-

tric fluids must have some

basic properties, and espe-

cially a high dielectric

strength.

Working on the principles

of filtration, dehydration

and vacuum degasification ,

the oil treat-

ment plants type THV

complete the range of stan-

dard equipments.

Equipment reliability, treatment quality and price competi-

tiveness remain the main key-points of our equipments.

THV plants have been specially designed to treat oil on a

storage tank or a collapsible supple tank and to fill up trans-

formers.

Reliable and easy to use, they are particularly recommended

for treating oil while commissioning new transformers, or

for treating oil tanks in workshops .

Components of the plant

Principle of operation

The dielectric fluid enters

the plant through an inlet

strainer, and is then sucked

by vacuum* into an oil

heater, where it is heated by

immersion heaters. Then, the

dielectric fluid is sprayed

into a vacuum chamber on a

basket of degasifying rings.

Finally, the treated fluid

flows through the outlet oil

pump and then passes

through a filter composed of

fine filtration cartridges.

*Oil suction must take place in a tank at atmospheric pressure.
