Dry Type Low Voltage Transformer

1. Transformer Testing (ANSI C57.12.90)

Low voltage transformers are subjected to the following standard commercial tests:

No-Load Losses: Measured at rated voltage.
Load Losses: Evaluated under full load conditions.
Percent Impedance: Tested and verified at rated current.
Excitation Current Test: Conducted at 100% voltage.
Ratio Tests: Ensured across all tap settings.
Polarity and Phase Relation Tests: Confirmed for accuracy.
Induced Potential Tests: Simulates operational electrical stresses.
Impulse Tests: Includes full wave and reduced wave evaluations.
