Transformer Testing And Monitoring
Can detect the symptoms of transformer failure by monitoring the cooling system, load tap changer, dissolved gas, bushing power factor and capacitance, partial discharge, oil levels, pressure, temperatures and more.

Transformer Resistance Testing
Transformer insulation resistance deterioration is one of the most common causes of transformer failure: a failing transformer is a costly replacement in an electrical system with the potential for a long downtime. If you fail to maintain your transformer with regular insulation resistance testing (as can be carried out by the Megger Transformer Ohmmeter (MTO) series of transformer test equipment) then it’s likely to fail before reaching its maximum operating life.

Transformer Insulation Testing
The primary test methods used to assess the condition of the active insulation components in transformers and bushings, on site, include:1) power factor/tan δ,2) variable frequency power factor/tan δ (1 - 500 Hz)3) dielectric frequency response (DFR) [a dielectric response method], and4) moisture in oil measurements (for transformers).

Turns Ratio Testing
The transformer turns ratio test, or TTR test, confirms that the transformer has the correct ratio of primary turns to secondary turns. Using this test correctly can help to identify tap changer performance, shorted turns, open windings, incorrect winding connections and other faults inside transformers. Megger’s range of TTR testers are robust to withstand the harsh conditions that some transformer testing in. The range includes varying features to simplify and speed up testing as well as 3 phase TTR testers and PT and CT TTR testers.
