SA-P-011 Instrument Transformer
SA-P-011 Instrument Transformer
Yes No
1. Inspect for physical damage and compliance with design drawings.
2. Check mechanical clearances and proper operation of all disconnecting and grounding
devices associated with voltage transformers.
3. Verify proper operation of grounding devices for withdrawable voltage transformer and
shorting devices for current transformers.
4. Verify that the insulation of the CT's meets the voltage rating of the equipment.
5. When CT's are applied with cable terminations the grouped cable screen must extend
beyond the CT.
ELECTRICAL TESTS
Yes No
1. Current transformers shall have secondary saturation tests done and the test results
recorded.
2. Confirm transformer polarity electrically.
3. Burden tests will be made at the secondary leads of the CT to assure accurate
translation of primary current.
4. Verify connection at the secondary CT leads by driving a low current through the leads
and checking for this current at applicable devices.
5. Confirm transformer winding ratio(s).
6. Measure insulation resistance of transformer winding with five hundred volt megger
7. Measure transformer primary insulation with applicable over-potential tests see
manufacturer's instructions or refer to P-000.
8. Verify connection of secondary VT leads by applying a low voltage to the leads and
checking for this voltage at applicable devices.
9. Check for VT secondary load with secondary voltage and current measurements.
Make sure load is less than VA of the VT.
