Transformer Diagnostics
Diagnostics is about collecting reliable
information to make the correct decision
Making the correct decisions improves reliability
and saves money

Off-line test
The transformer is seen as a
complex impedance circuit
[Open] (magnetization
impedance) and [Short] (shortcircuit impedance) responses are
measured over a wide frequency
range and the results are presented
as magnitude response curves
(filter response)
Changes in the impedance can be
detected and compared over time,
between test objects or within test
objects
The method is unique in its ability to
detect a variety of winding faults,
core issues and other electrical
faults in one test
Correlation analysis
DL/T 911 2004 standard
Customer/transformer specific
Large deviations
between phases for
LV [open] at low
frequencies
indicates changes in
the magnetic
circuit/core defects
Large deviations
between phases at mid
and high frequencies
indicates winding faults

IEEE 62-1995 states; The power factors recorded for routine overall tests on
older apparatus provide information regarding the general condition of the
ground and inter-winding insulation of transformers and reactors. While the
power factors for most older transformers will also be <0.5% (20C), power
factors between 0.5% and 1.0% (20C) may be acceptable; however, power
factors >1.0% (20C) should be investigated.
