COURSE OVERVIEW

This hands-on, highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date knowledge of power transformer major inspection and testing. It covers the transformer design and construction considerations; the testing of power transformers and measurements of voltage rations, winding resistance, impedance voltage, load loss and current; the various types of power transformers testing and concepts frequency response analysis, dielectric frequency response and degree of polymerization. 

 

The application, recommended limits and fault types for oil immersed transformers and the categories of equipment and standards for routine tests; the measurements of insulation resistance, its types and the measurement instruments used; the measurement instruments and analysis methods used for the measurement of voltage ration; the capacitance and power factor, power factor measurements, hot collar technique  and various types of transformer test procedures; the partial discharge techniques, causes of the occurrence and discharge; the types of partial discharge, and partial discharge system; the testing results and transformer life assessment.
