Winding Resistance Tester
Our Winding Resistance Tester is designed to measure the DC resistance of three-phase windings in large-capacity transformers. It primarily tests the DC resistance of transformer windings, motor windings, and other electrical components.
For on-load tap changers (OLTCs), the test can be performed without discharge, allowing the tap changer to be directly adjusted. Compared to traditional single-phase measurement, this method reduces measurement time to one-third, significantly improving efficiency and reducing labor intensity.
It helps identify issues such as open circuits, loose connections, short circuits between turns, and winding degradation.

Why is Winding Resistance Testing Important?
1. Ensures Transformer Health
Detects winding degradation before major failures occur.
Identifies poor electrical connections that may cause overheating.
2. Detects Manufacturing Defects
Verifies the quality of transformer windings before deployment.
Ensures compliance with IEC, IEEE, and ANSI standards.
3. Prevents Unexpected Shutdowns
Supports predictive maintenance, preventing costly failures.
Reduces maintenance costs by identifying faults early.
4. Evaluates Tap Changer Performance
Ensures smooth operation of on-load tap changers (OLTCs).
Detects contact wear, misalignment, or mechanical defects.
Working Principle of Winding Resistance Tester
The tester injects a precise DC current into the winding and measures the voltage drop, using Ohm's Law (R = V/I) to calculate resistance.
Step-by-Step Workflow
Current Injection
The tester applies a low DC current to the transformer or motor winding.
Voltage Measurement
Measures the voltage drop across the winding terminals.
Resistance Calculation
Uses Ohm’s Law to calculate and display the resistance value.
Temperature Compensation (Optional)
Some advanced testers adjust the resistance value to a standard reference temperature (e.g., 75°C or 20°C).
Demagnetization (If Necessary)
Ensures that the transformer core returns to a neutral magnetic state after testing.
