00:00:19,020 --> 00:00:20,828
Winding resistance test

2
00:00:20,853 --> 00:00:24,554
Winding resistance test is done in “Resistance Test” tab.

3
00:00:24,579 --> 00:00:32,226
In this test, by injecting “DC” current into “CVT” secondary and measuring voltage through the “Input” and dividing voltage by current,

4
00:00:32,251 --> 00:00:35,242
“DC” resistance or “Rmeas” is calculated.

5
00:00:35,267 --> 00:00:40,562
It should be noted that in the software, there is only one row in the test table by default.

6
00:00:40,587 --> 00:00:50,600
If the “CVT” has more than one taps or cores, by pressing “Insert Rows” it is possible to add as many rows as necessary and test any of them.

7
00:00:50,625 --> 00:00:59,115
To perform this test, the test current and time must be entered in “I test” and “State Time” fields in “State Setting” section, respectively.

8
00:00:59,140 --> 00:01:06,959
The current limitation specified for this field is “32” amps but “1” amp of current is usually enough for this test.

9
00:01:06,984 --> 00:01:16,971
About rows of the “Result” table, it should be noted that if “Show Resistance Column” option in “Test Object” is checked, three more columns including “Rnom”

10
00:01:16,996 --> 00:01:21,963
“Rdev” and “Assessment” are added to the table where “Rnom” and “Rdev”

11
00:01:21,988 --> 00:01:33,361
refer to the nominal resistance and the difference between “Rnom” and “Rcorr”, respectively. If “Rcorr” is lower than “Rnom”, the “Assessment” is “Passed”, otherwise it is “Failed”.

12
00:01:33,386 --> 00:01:37,908
After entering the information, the wiring needs to be done in accordance with the picture.

13
00:01:37,933 --> 00:01:53,626
It should be noted that it is possible to magnify the picture by double-clicking on it. In this wiring, first the „la1“ and „lb1“ current output phases are Jumpered and „la2“ and „lb2“ phases are paralleled with the capacitor box.

14
00:01:53,651 --> 00:02:06,492
Here, „la2“ is connected after connecting it to the positive end of the capacitor and to the "S1"ِ CVT and „lb2“ is connected after connecting it to the negative polarity of the capacitor and to the „S2“.

15
00:02:06,517 --> 00:02:11,297
The reason for using a capacitor box is to compensate „CVT“ inductance.

16
00:02:11,322 --> 00:02:21,718
In this capacitor box, there are three „1000“ microfarad capacitors and the red and black ends of the capacitor box are the positive and negative polarity, respectively.

17
00:02:21,743 --> 00:02:28,915
To measure the “DC” voltage, input1 should be connected to the “CVT” and a little further from the current connectors.

18
00:02:28,940 --> 00:02:35,034
Then, the source of the current which was paralleled with the capacitor is connected to the “CVT” terminals.

19
00:02:35,059 --> 00:02:41,899
It should be noted that to perform the test, it is necessary to right-click on one of the rows of the table and select “Apply Test”.

20
00:02:41,924 --> 00:02:49,290
By doing this, the device settings related to the current and the test time as well as the hardware settings related to “Hardware Configuration”

21
00:02:49,315 --> 00:02:54,771
including the outputs and “Binary/Analog Inputs” of the device are automatically adjusted.

22
00:02:54,796 --> 00:02:59,124
To analyze the test it is possible to use “Table View”, “Detail View” and “Signal View”.

23
00:02:59,149 --> 00:03:07,733
After opening “Table View” window, two “States” with zero frequency and in accordance with the information entered in “State Setting” section can be seen.

24
00:03:07,758 --> 00:03:19,459
The function of the first “State” is to change the “CT” current from transient to steady state while the function of the second “State” is to measure the current and voltage and calculate the resistance.

25
00:03:19,484 --> 00:03:26,577
If the user wishes to have access to a more thorough source of information than the “Table View”, they can use “Detail View” window.

26
00:03:26,602 --> 00:03:29,327
Performing the test and analyzing the results

27
00:03:29,352 --> 00:03:31,061
After adjusting the wiring,

28
00:03:31,086 --> 00:03:41,545
1 amp and 5 seconds are entered as the test current and test time, respectively, and by right-clicking on any of the rows and pressing “Apply Test”, the test begins.

29
00:03:41,570 --> 00:03:48,975
It should be noted that in “Signal View” section, it is possible to view the actual waveform of the current and the voltage measured by the “Input”.

30
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,664
By using “Signal View” and the recorded voltage and current waveforms,

31
00:03:52,689 --> 00:04:00,181
it is possible to analyze the test and using the “Actual” values and the recorded voltages, examine if the connectors are connected correctly.

32
00:04:00,175 --> 00:04:06,179
After the test is finished, by selecting the row in “Result” section, the test results can easily be viewed.

33
00:04:06,204 --> 00:04:10,054
The results include “VDC”, “IDC”, “Rnom”,

34
00:04:10,079 --> 00:04:19,265
“Rcorr” and “Rdev” which refer to the measured voltage, the injected current, the resistance measured in the current temperature,

35
00:04:19,290 --> 00:04:28,171
the resistance measured in the reference temperature and the difference between “Rcorr” and “Rnom” in terms of percent, respectively.

36
00:04:28,196 --> 00:04:37,859
In “Correction Factor” field, the temperature correction factor is calculated in accordance with the current ambient temperature, the reference temperature and the material of the winding.

37
00:04:37,884 --> 00:04:47,898
The information of this temperature is entered in “Temperature Correction” field in “Test Object” and the “Rcorr” is obtained by multiplying “Rmeas” by the “Correction Factor”.

38
00:04:47,923 --> 00:04:53,133
In the end, after performing the test, if “Rcorr” is lower than “Rnom”,

39
00:04:53,173 --> 00:04:58,851
the result of the assessment is “Passed” in “Assessment”, otherwise it is “Failed”.

40
00:04:58,876 --> 00:05:07,102
After the assessment, it is necessary to add the results to the report which in equipment test is done by pressing “Add to Report”.

41
00:05:07,127 --> 00:05:14,773
Also, if you wish to add specific parts of the test to the report or edit or delete the report, “Add to Report” cog.

42
00:05:14,798 --> 00:05:27,226
By clicking on this cog, the elements that can be added to the report are indicated by checked checkboxes and before pressing “Add to Report” the user can uncheck any of them that they do not wish to be added to the report.

43
00:05:27,251 --> 00:05:34,499
It should be noted that after every test the test results are not added to the report automatically and after every test,

44
00:05:34,524 --> 00:05:41,304
it is necessary to add the results of the performed test to the report by pressing “Add to Report” before clearing the test.

45
00:05:41,329 --> 00:05:47,581
If you wish to use a different wiring for current injection, you need to have pressed “Apply Test” at least once.

46
00:05:47,606 --> 00:05:55,565
Then, check “Don’t change Hardware Setting” and select their intended wiring in “Hardware Configuration” and press “Apply Test” one more time.

47
00:05:55,621 --> 00:06:05,104
To select a different “Input”, it should be noted that the selected “Binary Input Target” must be similar to the default “Binary Input Target”.

48
00:06:05,145 --> 00:06:13,276
For this, it is suggested to right-click on “Input1” row and cut the information and “Paste” it in the intended row.

49
00:06:13,301 --> 00:06:20,955
To change the current wiring, it is important to set the “Output Target” of the selected wiring at “IL1”.

50
00:06:20,980 --> 00:06:27,221
There are two more notable points; the first one is that „Error Other“ indicates that either there is a problem

51
00:06:27,246 --> 00:06:34,557
with the wirings or the resistance is too high that the device is not able to provide the „Burden“ needed for current injection.

52
00:06:34,582 --> 00:06:41,642
Therefore, in cases of facing this error, the user needs to examine the „Actual“ value of the current from „Signal View“.

53
00:06:41,667 --> 00:06:46,853
If the current is injected from the device („Actual Current“) but its difference with the specified current is high,

54
00:06:46,878 --> 00:06:54,033
the wiring resistance is too high and if the „Actual Current“ is zero, it means that the current injection path is open.

55
00:06:54,058 --> 00:07:03,439
In cases where the resistance is too high, it is necessary to decrease the current and when the „Actual Current“ equals zero, the connection of the connectors needs to be checked.

56
00:07:03,464 --> 00:07:12,447
The second point is that if the measured voltage has a too high tolerance or equals zero, this means that the connectors are not connected correctly.
