Rmu Test Procedure

1. Contact resistance and insulation resistance tests must be performed on the incomer, transformer, and outgoing units of the HV breaker in accordance with standards. This includes testing phases to ground and between units. 2. An insulation resistance test is performed before and after applying 5kV DC for 1 minute between each phase and ground with all breakers closed. 3. A high voltage test is conducted by calculating and injecting a voltage equal to 2 times the rated voltage for 1 minute to test withstand capability while taking safety precautions. Functional checks and earth fault tests are also performed.

INTRODUCTION:

Routine tests should be carried out in accordance with IEC 60298


standards.

HV BREAKER:
CONTACT RESISTANCE TEST:
HV Breaker comprises three units such as Incomer,
Transformer and outgoing feeders. Each of these units must be
subject to contact resistance prior to High Volt test.
The following procedures must follow for all three phases
1. Incomer to Ground
The above sequence carried out by making earth
switch ON in Incomer breaker and then conduct the Contact
resistance test by applying 100Amps to R phase to ground, Y
phase to ground and B phase to ground.
2. Outgoing to Ground
The above sequence carried out by making
earth switch ON in Outgoing breaker and then conduct the
Contact resistance test by applying 100Amps to R phase to
ground, Y phase to ground and B phase to ground.
3. Transformer unit or Fuse unit to ground.
The above sequence carried out by making
earth switch ON in Fuse unit breaker and then conduct the
Contact resistance test by applying 100Amps to R phase to
ground, Y phase to ground and B phase to ground.
4. Transformer unit (Fuse unit) to Incomer unit.
For the above sequence test, we need to ON
the breaker of Transformer unit and Incomer unit. Regarding fuse
unit we need dummy fuse to conduct the test. The dummy fuse

must be more than 100 Amps rating and without resistance. We


should not use the rated Fuse provide by manufacturer. After
arrange the zero resistance dummy fuses inside the transformer
feeder (fuse unit) apply 100 Amps by contact resistance
equipment between R phase of Fuse unit (transformer) to Incomer
unit. Repeat the same for all other Y and B phases

5. Transformer unit (fuse unit) to outgoing unit


For the above sequence test, we need to ON the breaker of
Transformer unit and outgoing unit. Regarding fuse unit we need
dummy fuse to conduct the test. The dummy fuse must be more
than 100 Amps rating and without resistance. We should not use
the rated Fuse provide by manufacturer. After arrange the zero
resistance dummy fuses inside the transformer feeder (fuse unit)
apply 100 Amps by contact resistance equipment between R
phase of Fuse unit (transformer) to Incomer unit. Repeat the same
for all other Y and B phases.

INSULATION RESISTANCE TEST:

Before injecting the voltage we must


arrange safety precautions and ensure that the power
cables must be removed from Breaker to transformer, the
fuse must be removed from fuse unit. SF6 gas pressure
must be positive.
The bushings of the breakers must be cleaned
and tightened. All the breakers must be in ON condition.

Insulation Test before High Volt:


Measure Insulation resistance test between each phase to
ground by applying 5KV DC through Megger for 1 Minute.
Before Apply 5 KV ensure that all the breakers of three units
must be closed.
Insulation Test after High Volt:
Measure Insulation resistance test between each phase to
ground by applying 5KV DC through Megger for 1 Minute.
Before Apply 5 KV ensure that all the breakers of three units
must be closed.

High volt test:


Arrange Hivolt Equipment for injecting required voltage
to ensure the system had the capability to withstand.
Before injecting the voltage we must arrange safety
precautions and ensure that the power cables must be removed
from Breaker to transformer, the fuse must be removed from fuse
unit.
The bushings of the breakers must be cleaned and
tightened. All the breakers must be in ON condition.
The following equation must be calculate for injecting the high
volt

RatedVolta ge 2

HV Test at

The above High Volt must inject for 1 minute and it should
withstand. Record the leakage current at the time of injection.

FUNCTIONAL CHECKS:
The following Mechanical interlocks must be tested
A- OPENING/ CLOSING SWITCH DISCONNECTORS
B- OPENING/ CLOSING TRANSFORMER TEE ON
C- OPENING/ CLOSING EARTH SWITCH OF
TRANSFORMER TEE
D- OPENING/ CLOSING FOR SWITCH
DISCONNECTORS
E- CIRCUIT BREAKER EARTH SWITCH INTERLOCK

Earth fault Indication test:


Apply rated CT current to the Earth leakage CT
primary and observe the blinking of light at the leakage detector
relay.
