GDRB-C Transformer Winding Deformation Tester
Product Description
Power transformer winding deformation tester (frequency response method) is based on the measurement of characteristic parameters of transformer internal windings, adopts the internal fault frequency response analysis (FRA) method, can accurately judge the internal faults of transformers.
After the completion of design and manufacture of transformers, the coils and internal structure are finalized, so for the coil of a multi-winding transformer, if the voltage level and winding method are the same, the corresponding parameters (Ci, Li) of each coil shall be determined. Therefore, the frequency characteristics response of each coil also will be determined, so the frequency spectrums of the corresponding coils of three phases are comparable.
During the test of transformer, in case of inter-turn, inter-phase short circuit, or relative coil displacement caused by collisions during transport, as well as coil deformation resulted from electromagnetic tension during operation under short circuit and fault conditions, the distribution parameters of transformer windings will change, which thereby in turn affects and changes the transformers’ original frequency domain characteristics, namely the frequency response change in magnitude and the resonant frequency points shift. The transformer winding tester developed according to the response analysis method is the novel NDT equipment for detecting transformer internal fault. It applies to the detection of internal structure fault in 63kV-500kV power transformers.
