SWITCH GEAR HIGH VOLTAGE TESTS:


Ref as per TCS – P -105, Rev – 01, Item 3.12.3.
32 –TMMS – 01
IEC – 62271 – 100

Guidelines for High Voltage Tests:


 Test voltage should be applied on each phase to ground with other phases in
earthed position the test should be repeated on other phases similarly.
 The test period should not be more than 1 min at full test level and the test voltage
frequency should be kept at 60 Hz.
 Charging current for each test is noted and recorded.
 In open position the cable contacts are to be grounded . Test is considered
successful if no break down occurs during test period.
 Test shall be performed with the CB in both closed and open conditions .
 After the high voltage test on main circuit is finished Rack the Vt in service position
and apply on primary side a test voltage equal to 1.5U n (Un = phase to neutral rated
voltage ) on each phase consecutively and measure the secondary output voltage
same time during the test.
 Make sure the VT secondary side MCB’s are switched off and any resistor in open
delta winding had been removed.
 CT’s secondary terminals should be short circuited and earthed.
 Before and after High voltage test insulation resistance to be checked

INSULATION RESISTANCE TEST:

Applied Voltage = 5 kV Time Duration = 1 min
