The document outlines testing procedures for large power transformers, emphasizing the use of TTR test sets and the importance of various tests such as impedance and winding resistance. It also details pre-energization checks, monitoring during energization, and the collection of nameplate data for all equipment. Additionally, it highlights the necessity of documenting all test data, problems encountered, and other relevant information for future reference.

 Ratio and Polarity (Voltage Method or TTR).

The preference is that all large


power Transformers (>1 MVA) be tested with TTR test set.
 Impedance
 DC winding resistance
 Megger and Power Factor windings, bushing and arrestors. Note: Wait until 24
hours after completion of oil filling for Power Factor testing.

13. Load CT circuits overall and flash for polarity.


14. Before energization, trip-check bank protection schemes and make sure the gas-
collection relay is free of gas.
15. When energizing a bank or picking up load, monitor bank currents and voltages,
including UL tap-changer operation.
16. Check proper phasing and voltage of the bank to the system before load is
picked up. When possible, large transformers (>1 MVA) should remain
energized for eight hours before carrying load.
17. Make in-service checks on meters and relays.
18. Release to Operations and report energization information to the TNE office.
19. Turn in revised prints and test reports, which should include the following:

 All test data


 Moisture and oil data
 Problems incurred
 In-service data
 Time energized and release to operation
 Any unusual problem that information will aid in future equipment testing

8.2 NAMEPLATE DATA and TERMINAL MARKINGS

Collecting nameplate data is not testing, but it must be done for all equipment. This
data is recorded by the person(s) performing the equipment tests. The act of recording
the nameplate data also helps test personnel familiarize themselves with the unit to be
tested.

For a transformer, much of the needed information can be obtained from the main
nameplate. If there is an under load tap changer, it too will have a nameplate. CTs have
name plates and may have them on the bushing pockets where they are mounted with
additional information on a nameplate placed inside the cooler-control cabinet door
(typical on large transformers). Bushings, fuses, fan and pump motors, lightning
arrestors, and disconnect switches will also have individual nameplates. An attempt
should be made to fill in all pertinent spaces on the data sheet. A miscellaneous
information space is provided on data sheets for information that pertains to the
transformer but does not have a specified place to record it. Recording miscellaneous
information not identified specifically by a test data sheet may be important as well.
