How to do Megger test/insulation resistance for transformer?

Transformers are one of the costliest equipment used in distribution and transmission process of power. The transformer has to go through different testing procedures periodically to prove that the transformer works properly. Deterioration of the transformer insulation resistance is one of the most common causes of failure of the transformer: a failed transformer is a costly replacement …

Why transformer testing is needed and how to do the maintenance of a transformer

What is the transformer A transformer is a device that can transfer electrical energy from one circuit to another through an inductively coupled conductor which is the transformer’s coils. A varying magnetic flux will be created in the transformer’s core by the varying current in the primary winding and thus a varying magnetic field through …

What is Partial Valve Stroke Testing?

Introduction Partial Valve Stroke Testing or PVST, is an emerging concept to automatically increase the performance of Safety Instrumented Systems. PVST is a concept where safety-related valves like ESD valves and shut-off valves are automatically tested concerning failure modes that are related to valve sticking and slowing down operation. Current trends in the industry show …
