Turns Ratio Testers
TRT Standard Series
When it comes to choosing a transformer turns ratio tester, TRT Standard series offers some of the most advanced instruments with LCD display out in the market. Each model measures transformer excitation current and phase shift performs automatic vector group detection and magnetic balance on three-phase transformers and three-phase autotransformers. Furthermore, they have a built-in true three-phase power source. Because of that, TRT Standard instruments can test transformers with special configurations, such as phase-shifting, rectifier, arc-furnace, traction transformers, etc.The instruments can output test voltages from 1 V AC to 250 V AC, depending on the chosen model. High test voltage of 250 V AC provides more accurate turns ratio testing compared to other turns ratio testers on the market and extremely low test voltage of 1 V AC enables turns ratio verification of current transformers.TRT Standard series consists of:TRT03 Models (TRT03A, TRT03B, TRT03C) – single-phase voltage up to 100 VTRT3x Models (TRT30A, TRT30B, TRT30C, TRT33A, TRT33B, TRT33C) – single and true three-phase voltage up to 100 VTRT63 Models (TRT63A, TRT63B, TRT63C) – single and true three-phase voltage up to 250 VMore about models differences can be found under the downloads tab, in brochures and comparison sheets.A user can create test templates using the DV Win software and store them in the PC’s memory for later use when in the field.TRT Standard series models have a built-in tap changer control unit. Consequently, it enables remote control of an on-load tap changer (OLTC) directly from the tester. In order to make the most out of this feature, the DV-Win software can be programmed to do everything automatically – running turns ratio tests, changing OLTC tap positions and saving results. This option, especially in combination with test templates, significantly facilitates and shortens the turns ratio testing time.

Tap Changer Analyzers & Winding Ohmmeters
Winding resistance test of inductive test objects, such as power transformers, is one of the most effective non-intrusive ways of checking its condition. Due to their advanced design, DV Power winding resistance meters provide high test currents (up to 100 A DC) and high accuracy (up to 0.1%) within light and portable test instruments. In addition to winding resistance measurement, it is also possible to perform simple, quick and reliable transformer on-load tap changer condition assessment by recording the test current during tap changer operation, also known as DVtest. Because of that, problems with a tap changer connection, contacts, and switching procedure can be detected.DV Power winding ohmmeters consist of single-phase RMO-T and three-phase TWA series. Models from the TWA series are designed for six-winding resistance measurement of power and distribution transformers, with only one single-step cable setup.

Three-Phase Transformer Winding Resistance Meters
TWA Advanced Series
TWA Advanced series is the latest DV Power solution for three-phase transformer winding resistance measurement and tap changer analysis. They are capable of testing six transformer windings with a single cable connection, as well as three-phase automatic transformer demagnetization. It has the option of the automated test mode, where the instrument operates the tap changer without operator input (minimizing the risk of human error) and records winding resistance results based on pre-selected stabilization criteria.The unique DVtest method of tap changer analysis enables checking the moving contacts of on-load tap changers during the transition, measuring the transition time, detecting open circuits, and many other types of faults. It is performed with 0.1 ms sampling rate, together with the measurement of tap changer motor current which detects motor and mechanical issues. A special proprietary algorithm is used for testing tap changers connected through a built-in series (booster) transformer. The DVtest can be performed either on one phase or simultaneously on three phases. It can also be performed together with the winding resistance test in all tap positions.A unique advantage of TWA Advanced instruments is the capability of simultaneously testing the winding resistance of all three phases of a three-phase transformer connected in a YN configuration. This can significantly speed up the testing– for example, it enables the operator to perform 33 measurements instead of 99 on a tap changer with 33 tap positions.TWA500 is equipped with a large 10.1” graphical touch-screen display, while TWA400 has a 7” graphical touch-screen display. Besides making the interface much more user-friendly compared to older winding ohmmeters, it also enables certain test options that were previously available only with DV-Win software. The most important among them are DVtest, tap changer motor current measurement, “Heat Run” test, test templates, and automatic test mode.
