1. Insulation test

Insulation test is one of the most basic tests in transformer testing. Its purpose is to verify whether the insulation quality of the transformer meets the specified standards and requirements. The insulation test of transformers is divided into AC withstand voltage test, DC withstand voltage test, and dielectric loss test. The insulation test of transformers requires the use of special equipment, such as high-voltage transformers, phase detectors, dielectric loss testers, etc.

2. Steady state thermal test

Steady state thermal test is a test to verify whether the performance indicators of a transformer meet the requirements. This experiment needs to be conducted under standard environmental conditions to evaluate the performance of the transformer by measuring its temperature rise and load loss. The steady-state thermal test usually lasts for several hours and requires the use of special testing equipment and measuring instruments.

3. Short circuit impedance test

Short circuit impedance test is a test to evaluate the output capacity and short circuit capability of a transformer. This experiment needs to be conducted under standard load conditions, and the short-circuit impedance of the transformer is calculated by measuring the short-circuit current and short-circuit voltage. Short circuit impedance testing requires the use of high-precision testing instruments and specialized testing equipment.

4. Load loss test

Load loss test is a test to evaluate the load characteristics of a transformer, which can verify the loss characteristics and efficiency under nominal load. This experiment needs to be conducted under standard load conditions, by measuring the input and output power of the transformer to calculate its load characteristics. The load loss test requires the use of high-precision testing equipment and measuring instruments.

5. Leakage current test

Leakage current test is one of the tests to measure the insulation performance of transformers, which can verify whether the insulation quality of transformers meets the requirements. This experiment needs to be conducted under standard conditions to evaluate the insulation quality of the transformer by measuring its leakage current. The leakage current test requires the use of high-precision testing instruments and measuring devices.

In summary, transformer testing is a necessary means to ensure the reliable operation of transformers. Through multiple tests such as insulation test, steady-state thermal test, short-circuit impedance test, load loss test, and leakage current test, it is possible to verify whether the performance indicators and insulation quality of transformers meet the standard requirements, ensuring the safe operation of the power system.
