Pre-Commissioning Check
Potential /Voltage transformers can be broadly divided in to two type : Indoor and outdoor type.
1) Metering Core-
100 VA – Rated burden Class 1.0- Accuracy is 1 %, between 80 % and 120 % of rated voltage and with
burdens between 25 % and 100 % at 0.8
2) Protection core-
3P – Accuracy is 3 %, from 5 % of rated voltage upto the rated voltage factor 1.5 or 1.9 as the case may be
) and with burdens between 25% and 100 % at 0.8 lag.
Also specified is the rated voltage factor e.g. 1.9 times for 8 hrs or 1.5 for 30 second etc.
Insulation resistance:-
Isolate PT primary neutral & secondary terminals in the junction box.
Measure insulation resistance and enter the result in the test report
Polarity Check:-
Arrange the test setup as shown in figure
Ratio Check:-
Connection the Circuit as per figure
Measure the primary and secondary voltage and record it the test report.
Measure the secondary voltage at the points in at all the points in the circuit. Phasing of the
secondary winding can be checked by removing fuses in the primary circuit and check for loss of
voltage in the secondary for the corresponding phase. Check the voltmeter circuits for proper
function of voltmeter switch.
Precautions:
