3. SFRA TESTS- PURPOSE
• Transformer complex of resistance,Inductance and
Capacitance Network (R,L,C)
• Resistance of copper winding (R)
• Inductance of winding Coil (L)
• Capacitance of Insulation Layer between coil (C)
• R,L,C Circuit form frequnce dependant and response
• Any Physical damage- R,L,C value changed and
frequency response changed
• Test conduct during commissioning
• 10VAC and 20KHZ to 2MHZ Source of supply
9. 2.TAN DELTA TEST
• TAN DELTA= Resitance component of Ins. Matl
Capacitive current flowing Ins.Matl
. Capacitance Value,Tan Delta(Dissipation factor)
. Change of Capacitance indicate Moisture,Short
and open circuit in winding
. Insulating Loss α Squre of the applied voltage
21. MAGNETESING CURRENT TEST
• Mesure
• Defect of Magnetic core structure
• Shiting of winding
• Failure of Turn to Turn insulation
• Problems in tap changer
23. MAGNETESING CURRENT TEST
• Apply 3-ph 415 V or 1-phase 230 V 0n HV or
LV keeping other side OPEN
HV side
LV side
Applied voltage Current measured Applied voltage Current measured
UN / UV = 389 4.82 mA un / uv = 206 170 mA
VN / VW = 392 3.10 mA vn / vw = 206 85 mA
WN / WU = 389 6.40 mA wn / wu = 206 96 mA
25. Magnetic Balance Test
• Apply 1-phase 230 V on HV and LV side
(whichever is have neutral) between phase
