Determination for the short-circuit between turns in rotors of

non-salient pole synchronous generators

1 Scope
This standard specifies the measuring methods and limits of the short-circuit
between turns in rotors of non-salient pole synchronous generators.
This standard applies to the measurement of the short-circuit between turns in
rotors of non-salient pole synchronous generators. The test between the turns
of the rotor in the ac exciter of a generator shall be done referring to this
standard.
This standard shall cohere to GB/T 7064 Specifications for turbine
synchronizing electric machine.
2 Normative references
The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this
standard, will constitute provisions of this standard. For the dated references,
the subsequent amendments (excluding the corrigenda) or the revisions do not
apply to this standard. However, the parties to agreements based on this part
are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent
editions of these standards. And for the undated references, the most recent
editions apply to this standard.
GB/T 1029 Test method for the three-phase synchronous electric machine
(GB/T 10291993, neq IEC 60034-2) ;
GB/T 70641996 Technical requirements for turbo synchronous electric
machine (GB/T 70642002, IEC 60034-3: 1988, NEQ).
3 Test equipment
The accuracies of the instruments used in the measurement shall conform to
the requirements laid down in GB/T 1029.
The cross-section, number of turns and installation position of the exploring
coils used in the exploring coil waveform method shall ensure that they
possess the enough sensitivity and accuracy.
4 Measurement status
The measurement of the short-circuit between turns of rotors shall be carried
out under two status, i.e. static and rotating status separately (see Table 1).

Notes: 1 In hand over-take over test, make tests at the curves of No.1 and
No.6.
2 Test No. 6 shall be done when necessary.
a. The peak value of the test voltage applied during the test shall not be
greater than the rated excited voltage of the rotors winding.

4.1 Static status: The impedance measurement method will be adopted.

If the measured voltage differences of the windings at all levels are over the
limits during the test, it is possible to use the induction electric potential vector
method (i.e. open transformer method) or the voltage distribution method at
each level for further detection.
The space distance between the rotor body and the surrounding ferromagnetic
matters shall be over 1m when measuring the rotor impedance under static
status outside the engine base. If the requirements mentioned above can not
be met, it is necessary to obtain two groups of data before and after the rotor
rotates 180 geometrically for comparison.
4.2 Rotating status: Beside the impedance measurement method, the
exploring coil waveform method shall be adopted for the machines equal to or
more than 100MW (except water cooling rotor).
4.2.1 When measuring the rotors impedance under the rotating status, it is
necessary to keep monitoring the current, record the data according to Table 1,
and draw the curves of impedance-rotation speed of the rotor.
4.2.2 The measurement of exploring coil waveform shall be carried out once
before over speed and after over speed (after precise balance) during the rotor
dynamic balance under rated rotating speed.
5 Measurement methods
5.1 Measurement of a.c. impedance of the rotor under static status: Connect
the rotors lead wire (or bus rings or radial conducting screw) with the test
source by conducting wire, the test source is practical 50Hz sine source under
operating frequency, measure and record the voltage, current, power and
voltages at each pole.
5.2 Measurement of a.c. impedance of the rotor under rotation status:
Connect the test source to the bus rings with the brush fitted on the insulated
brush carrier, measure and record the voltage, current, power or the voltages
at both poles (referring to bipolar machine).
5.3 Measurement with the exploring coil waveform method under rotation
status.
5.3.1 Arrangement of the exploring coil: The exploring coil shall be arranged
radically, installed on a fixed support which is of appropriate distance
(generally 1/3 of the air gap) from the surface of the rotor body. It should be
ensured that the axial trace of the exploring coil will coincide with the rotor
radically.
5.3.2 Coil label of the rotors winding: The coil label of the first slot tightly
closed to the magnetic pole is 1 or 1, the coil label of the second slot is 2 or 2,
so on and so forth. Position marks shall be made on the rotors axis.
5.3.3 Selection of the measuring instrument: It is necessary to select the
special tester for short circuit between turns with higher input impedance
(generally greater than 10M), wider frequency domain (ensuring that there
will be no distortion in the waveform) and better sensitivity or other measuring
instruments with the measurement precision and functions being in accord with
the requirements of this standard.
5.3.4 Measurement and data record: Apply direct current (or even more if it is
necessary for the test) less than 4% of the rated excited current to the rotors
windings under test during the dynamic balance, connect the voltage signals at
the two ends of the exploring coil to the tester for short circuit between turns of
the rotor or to other measuring instruments meeting the requirements of this
standard, and draw the induced potential waveform of the exploring coil and
record (or store) the corresponding sampling data.
6 Limits
6.1 Limit for a.c. impedance of the rotor
6.1.1 The voltage difference between the coils at each pole shall be not
greater than 3% of the maximum value during the static test.
6.1.2 The impedance difference of the coil at all poles at each rotating speed
and each voltage shall be not greater than 3% for the maximum value. If it is
difficult to measure the coil impedance at each pole, it is possible to measure
the impedance of the whole rotor windings, but the impedance difference
between every other 300r/min shall be not greater than 5% of the maximum
value.
6.2 Limits for the exploring coil waveform method
Take a coil voltage at a magnetic pole and the corresponding coil (the same
number) voltage at another magnetic pole, then divide the difference between
the two voltages mentioned above by the bigger one, then we can get:

Voltage difference of the coils with the same number

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 100%...............(1)
the bigger value among them

We can judge that the short circuit exists between the turns of the rotor under
test if the ratio calculated based on formula (1) is bigger than the one
calculated based on formula (2).

45
---------------------------------------------------------------------- %.....................(2)
number of turns of the rotor slot under test

6.3 When there is contradiction between the results obtained by the

impedance method and that by the waveform method, take the result obtained
by the waveform method as the criterion.
