HT Panels:

HT Switchgear:

Insulation Resistance Test

Megger test was carried out between the phases (CB close), between phase and
earth (CB close), Across Contacts (CB open).

Contact Resistance Test

Through micro ohm meter the resistance value was checked across the contact with
CB close.

Timer Test

CB all poles are connected to the timer kit and also the Trip, Close coil was
energized and de-energized by means of the timer kit and the timing was noted.

Relays (Over Current and Earth Fault Relay)

Secondary Injection Test

Using the relay test kit the current was injected directly into the relay instead of CT
current, and the tripping time was noted.

Relays (Master Trip & Trip circuit Supervision Relay)

Functional checkup, Fault simulation checkup was done in these types of relays

Current Transformer

Primary Injection Test

50% and 100% of Rated current was injected in the CT primary and the sec. current
was measured at the secondary terminal as well as in the metering circuit.

Insulation Resistance Test

Megger test was carried out between primary to earth (5 KV), Primary to sec. (5 KV),
sec. to earth (1 KV)

Polarity Test

By applying the small amount of DC voltage (9 V) in the primary (P1 & P2) the
deflection was measured in the secondary by means of Galvanometer.
Potential Transformer

Ratio Test

415V 3 phase supply was applied to the primary of the PT and the secondary
voltage was measured in the secondary terminals and also in the metering circuit.
And by means of that the ratio was calculated and checked.

Insulation Resistance Test

Megger test was carried out between primary to earth (5 KV), Primary to sec. (5 KV),
sec. to earth (1 KV)

Polarity Test

By applying the small amount of DC voltage (9 V) in the primary (A & B) the

deflection was measured in the secondary by means of Galvanometer.

Bus Bar

Torque Test

By means of torque wrench the tightness of the bus bar was checked.

Insulation Resistance Test

Megger test was carried out between phases, between phase and earth. The test
was carried out for 60 sec.

Operational Checkup:

By providing the control voltage to the HT panels the electrical ON & OFF was
checked and the interlock scheme is also checked.

Transformer
Magnetic Balance Test

Primary of the transformer was energized by means of 3 phase supply (415V). To

check the balance the one phase was cutoff and the voltage was measured
between that cutoff phase and other phases.

Example: R was cutoff the value between YB, RY, BR was measured and it must
satisfied YB= RY + BR

Magnetizing Current Test

Primary of the transformer was energized by means of 3 phase supply (415V) and
the no load current taken by the transformer was measured.
Vector group test

Primary of the transformer was energized by means of 3 phase supply (415V) and
depends upon the vector Group mentioned in the Drawing the test was carried out.

Ratio Test

Primary of the transformer was energized by means of 3 phase supply (415V), the
voltage was measured at the secondary of the transformer and depends upon the
tap position the ratio error was calculated.

Insulation Resistance Test

Megger test was carried out between primary to earth, primary to secondary (both
5 KV), Secondary to earth (1 KV).

Winding Resistance Test

Using Micro ohm meter the winding resistance value was measured in the primary
and secondary windings.

Operational checkup

Operational was done for the OLTC and functional checkup was done for the
protection system in transformer.

Bus Duct

Megger test and torque test was done, If required the winding resistance test may
also conducted at joints.

NOTE: All the above test was done at normal tapping expect Ratio
test.

LT Panels
LT Switchgear:

Insulation Resistance Test

Megger test was carried out between the phases (CB close), between phase and
earth (CB close), Across Contacts (CB open) with 1KV.

Primary Injection Test

A certain amount of current was injected at the CT primary and the breaker tripping
time was noted for that current.

Functional Checkup

By providing the control voltage to the LT panels the electrical ON & OFF was
checked and the interlock scheme is also checked

Bus Bar

Insulation Resistance Test

Megger test was done between phases, between phases to neutral, between phases
to earth with 1 KV.
