transformer - test - menubar

If you have choosen the application “transformer test”, the following menubar will be displayed.
The most important options and functions will be described in the following chapter.

The following tables describes all possible options to change.

Bil 500.00 kV maximum test-voltage (100%)
+ / - positive or negative polarity
30 % proportional portion of test-voltage
terminal Terminal of test-object
standard Display-view which is loaded while testing
reference Copy to reference channels
overlay standardized comparison
compare  standardized comparison  with difference channels
Tfum transfer-function (as described below)
Tolm toleranz volume methode (as described below)

 

trafo - test - setup

Setting of the Transformer Setup via Edit/Evaluation/TrafoSetup.


In this form the Trafo setups with the relevant test parameters must be defined by create new or modified.
Following Items are important:
The Evaluation mode must be set for each channel used (for LI : LI in K1, PK in K2, ... for SI : SI in K1, ...)
Setting of voltage channel(s):
BIL and %-values according test specification, polarity negative, offset 90%, deflection 80%, h.v. divider ratio e.g. 1000 : 1
Settings for current channel(s):
Maximal current magnitude at 100%, offset 50%, deflection 40%, Shunt values e.g. 0,1 - 2 Ohm
Input new Setup-name, e.g. BIL800LI and store with create.

 

values for test

USA
3 0%  for setup of waves

No. Test with BIL
1 50%       reduced wave  RW
3 100%     full wave  FW
1 110%    LICfull chopped wave FCW

in USA only voltage at LIC evaluated
è additional LIC- Test - Setup must be defined

Individual intervals for memory area and zoom area can be defined.

For LI 1,2/50 (0,84/60) -10 to 100 main zoom
-2 bis (4) 8 magnifier
for SI 20/4000  -20 bis (4000) 5000 main zoom
-2 bis 40 magnifier

Europe and Asia
30%  for setup of waves

No. Test with BIL
1 50% or 62,5%       reduced wave  RW
3 100%     full wave  FW
1-3 100%    LICfull chopped wave FCW

Test sequence according to test requirements.
Sometimes also LIC reduced chopped wave RCW is applied.
Individual intervals for memory area and zoom area can be defined.

For LI 1,2/50 (0,84/60) -10 to 100 main zoom
-2 to (4) 8 magnifier
for SI 20/4000  -20 to (4000) 5000 main zoom
-2 to 40 magnifier

 

test sequence

  - Select Setup, e.g. BIL800LI
 - Set polarity
 - Select percent value of BIL

Start

 - 50%-wave à reference (copy to)
 - additional impulses - Overlay – Compare
 - After test: load curve, compare, TFUM, etc.
 - Print Test Report / Protocol
 - Backup of Project Data:
With help of backup-function or with key Shift F3 in folder  c:\WintrasJob\ProjektName.

Suggestion: In case a CD-RW drive is available in the TR-AS measuring system, the auto-backup path can be set to this drive. The inserted CD-media must be formatted for R/W.
In case the measuring system is connected to a network, the auto-backup path can be set to the respective server.
In case this path is set to the local harddisk you must consider this while maintenance of your harddisk. Projects no longer needed should be deleted with help of the backup-functions.

 

manual evaluation modes

The manual evaluation-types can be used to do special analysis from voltage-current recordings when using transformer-test application. To accomplish a manual evaluation, there must be recorded on impulse, which should be defined as reference. For detailed information please refer to describtion from “channel-copy”.

 

overlay

In this evaluation the reference impulse is standardized to the magnitude of the measuring impulse. The standardization is done with the record from voltage and current. After overlay-analysis the corresponding channels of voltage and current will be displayed together in one system of coordinates.

 

compare

This evaluation works in the same way as overlay, with the exception that in this case the graphical difference between reference and measuring impulse is calculated. The display view of difference-channels will be set with zeroline to 50%, the measuring range is the same as the one of highest measuring range from reference or measuring record.
After compare-analysis the corresponding channels of voltage and current will be displayed together in one system of coordinates.

 

tfum - transfer function

With help from transfer-function you are able to determine the frequency-dependent conductance of the transformer.

settings (options) of transfer-function
If you want to change the settings of the tranfer-function analysis, you must “right-click” with mouse on the “TFUM”-button from menubar.

The following tables describes all possible options to change.

measuring channel channel in which voltage/current has been recorded
reference – channel channel to which reference impulse was copied
lambda optimizing voltage-dependent damp for magnitude
norming frequency frequency window which is used for sta ndardization
smoothing interval in points data of impulse can be smoothed (filtered) with this option
fft window window for boundary value correction   
maximum displayed conductancy maximum value of y-scale
use coherence function this option is for checking of evaluation
display view for test-setup here you can select your prefered display-view

 

tolm - tolerance volume methode

With help of tolerance volume methode you are able to analyse small deviations between special impulses, e.g. this deviations must be determined in quality control some company’s production lines.

settings of tolerance volume methode
If you want to change the settings of tolerance volume methode, you must “right-click” with mouse on the “TOLM” button from menubar.

The following table describes all possible options to change:

time-shift (in sampling points) correction of tolerance method thresholds in the rising section
upper threshold of channel 1 value for upper tolerance border
lower threshold of channel 1 value for lower tolerance border
equal settings for channel 2 the settings of channel 1 will be tranfered to channel 2
smoothing interval in points data of impulse can be smoothed (filtered)
upper threshold of channel 2 value for upper tolerance border
lower threshold of channel 2 value for lower tolerance border
