Acceptance Test of Transformer
The establishment and maintenance of a high
standard of both material and workmanship can be
only be achieved by continuous inspection during the
manufacturing stages and by subsequent testing of a
finished product.
In accordance with Indian standard 2026 the
transformer are subjected the following tests in order
to ensure their being electrically and mechanically
sound in every respect and also to make certain that
they meet the guaranteed performance

The test prescribes are as under
Ratio and polarity 1 no out of lot
Load losses and Impedance all transformer
Insulation resistance 1 no out of lot
Resistance of winding 1 no out of lot
No load losses No load current all transformer
Voltage test all transformer
a) Separate source all transformer
b) Induced over voltage all transformer.
Temperature rise test 1 no out of 100.
Impulse voltage test Type test.
Dynamic short circuit test. Type test.
Noise level test. Type test.


RATIO AND POLARITY TEST
The ratio and polarity tests are carried out on every
transformer to ensure that the turn ratio of windings
is correct and the tolerance as per IS standard is plus
minus .5 % of the declared no load ratio. This test is
initially carried out on the core and windings before
assembly in the tank. The ratio is again checked
when the transformer is in its tank and finally when
job is finished completely.
RATIO AND POLARITY TEST
The ratio meter itself is a single phase, double wound
transformer, having a constant primary winding and a
variable secondary winding. In carrying out the test, the
H.V winding of transformer being tested is connected in
opposition to the primary winding of the ratio meter,
while the L.V winding of the transformer is connected to
the terminals of the dial switches though ammeter. A
single phase voltage not exceeding 2000v is applied
across the primary winding of ratio meter, and the two
dial switches are adjusted until the ammeter reading
registered zero. A zero reading of ammeter is possible
only the polarity of transformer is true otherwise there
will be not possible to have zero reading.
Load loss test and impedance test.
These two tests are carried out simultaneously.
The test is necessary to know that losses and impedance are
within tolerance of guaranteed value at specified
temperature i.e 75 degree centigrade.
The test is performed by L.V winding shorted by shunt
applying rated current in H.V winding
Care shall be taken while these test is carried out. Such as
Preferred three wattmeter method.
Correctly measured voltmeter reading , this will be calculate
percentage impedance at 75 d centigrade. the peak short
circuit current is determine from percentage X/R ratio.
Thus importance of voltmeter reading is obvious.
NO LOAD LOSS AND CURRENT.
The test is necessary to know that losses and current
are within tolerance of guaranteed value at specified
frequency.
This test determine quality of core lamination,
assembly and level of flux density used.
Expected value of watt/kg for 1.6 tesla and 1.69 tesla
are 1.3 watts /kg and 1.56 watts /kg
Further the following points are important
Observe the rise in lo load current with voltage. If no
load current in case saturation of core. In this case no
load current will suddenly increase near rated voltage.

measurment of insulation resistances
For measurement of insulation resistance between
LT to earth, LT and H.T, use 1000volt , 2000 M
ohms meggar. As per experiences there is no
problem in achieving 200 Mohms value at room
temp. of these resistance for 11 KV and above
windings. Some time for LT and earth resistance is
low about 500 Mohms.

However following table is given with temperature
for minimum acceptable insulation resistance in M
ohms.

e
20 30 40 50 60
HV 800 400 200 100 50
LV 400 200 100 50 25
MEASURMENT OF WINDING RESISTANCE.
It is the D.C resistance of the winding , which is measured
across two terminals available at the bushings. The
temperature of the windings is taken to be the average of the
top and bottom oil temperature. For better accuracy the
difference between top and bottom oil shall be minimum. This
is the reason for doing this test in the beginning. It is assume
that transformer has been under oil without excitation for
long time. This time should be at least 3 hours. In case of
distribution transformer measurement of winding resistance
is normally carried when there is no difference between top
and bottom oil temperature.
The time of measurement should be noted and used for
guidance in carrying temperature rise test. Following points
must be noted.


It is important to measure the cold winding
resistance and temperature accurately because:

These resistance are used to determine stray copper
losses and thereby total load losses.
These resistance are used in the temperature rise of
windings .
For low resistance double Kelvin bridge < 2 ohms and
resistance >2 ohms whet stone method may be used.
Standard electronic instrument can also used for
resistance measurement.
The variation between resistance of different winding
should not be too much. In no case more than 5%.


Voltage test - winding


The H.V and LV. Winding of all transformers are
adequately tested for insulation before leaving the
factory. these tests consist of a) separate source
test and b ) induced over voltage test.
Separate Source Test
All the ends L.V windings are connected to earth.
The H.V windings are connected to one H.V
terminal of testing transformer , other L.V terminal
of this transformer being earthed. the primary side
of testing transformer is excited from normal supply
at any convenient frequency between 25 Hz to 50
Hz. It is preferable to apply this test at the normal
frequency. 28 kv for H.V terminals and 3 kv for L.V
terminals.
Induced Over Voltage est.
In this test induced over voltage test, for one minute
equal to twice the normal rated voltage of the h.v
winding. During this test the supply frequency
should be increased by at least 100 % above the
normal value in order to avoid an excessive exciting
current. The H.V windings are left open circuited,
the test voltage being applied to the L.V windings.
Temperature rise test.
This test is basically to verify the temperature rise of the
winding and the oil. Since test is of relevance to the life of
insulation, class of insulation, this test is attached lot of
importance. As per our AT term we carry out this test one
from supply of 100 no of transformer.
Few importance points to be noted as under.
Minimum tap position as current is high.
Shunt shall be of proper size.
in the measurement of winding resistance allow sufficient
time for reduction of inductive effect of the transformer.
Ambient temperature shall be taken accurately.
See that there is no wind.
Check the current feeding in transformer is correct
IMPLUSE TEST
Voltage surges have always occurred on transmission
systems and these surges, whether arising from
lighting or switching. To prevent breakdown
equipment must be designed to withstand surges.
Standard impulse voltage level for 11 kv dist
transformer is 75 kv peak 1.2/50micro seconds wave
shape.
But DISCOM has asked to pass the implulse having
95 kv peak instead of 75 kv.
One reduced level 50 to 75 % of the test level, one full
wave at test level, two chopped waves , one full wave.

DYNAMIC ABILITY TO WITHSTAND SHORT
CIRCUIT.
The verification of the ability to withstand short
circuit is to be performed on high voltage winding
connected to three phase balanced source and low
voltage winding short circuited through current
measuring instruments.
The current to be supplied is depend on x/r ratio of
transformer. Short is for 0.5 secs duration and at 11
kv.
The equipment is declared passed if no deviation in
oscillograms observed and it passes on all routine
test after short circuit test.
