FIELD INSTALLATION TESTS

VISUAL INSPECTION

Yes No
1. Check complete assembly for damage and missing parts.
2. Compare equipment nameplate information with latest single line diagram and report
discrepancies.
3. Ensure the enclosure is approved for the area classification.
4. Check conductor size and type.
5. Check for correct conduit connections.
6. Ensure that primary and secondary leads are connected for required voltage level.
7. Grounding installed.
8. Neutral wire correctly installed
9. Check mounting and supports per drawings.
10. The spare conductors (pigtails) properly insulated.

MECHANICAL INSPECTION

Yes No
1. Verify proper auxiliary device operation such as fans, indicators.

2. Check tightness of accessible bolted electrical joints in accordance with

manufacturers specifications or P-000 guidelines.
3. Perform specific inspections and mechanical tests as recommended by the
manufacture.
4. Check operation of tap changer or tap connection block for correct number of
shorting bars.

ELECTRICAL TESTS

Yes No
1. Insulation resistance tests shall be performed winding to winding and winding to
ground. Appropriate guard circuit shall be utilized under all bushings. Test voltage
and minimum acceptable values in accordance with values in test section.
2. A dielectric absorption test shall be made winding to winding and winding to ground
for ten (10) minutes. Compute the polarization index. The test voltages and
minimum acceptable values are listed in the test section.

ELECTRICAL TESTS (Continued)

Yes No
3. A turn's ratio test shall be performed between windings for all tap positions. The final
tap setting is to be determined by the engineer and set by the test engineer upon
completion of the ratio testing. Acceptable values are in the test section.
4. Winding resistance tests shall be made for each winding on each tap position.

5. No load excitation current shall be measured for each phase in accordance with
established procedure.
6. Perform special tests and adjustments as suggested by manufacturer for tap changer,
fan and controls, and alarm functions.

TEST VALUES

Yes No
1. Perform Insulation Resistance and Polarization Index test. Final values will be
temperature corrected.
2. The absorption test polarization index should be above 2.0 unless an extremely high
value is obtained at the end of one (1) minute that when doubled will not yield a
meaningful value with the available test equipment.
3. Winding resistance test results should compare within one percent (1%) of adjacent
windings.
4. Turns ratio test results should not deviate more than one-half of one percent ( +/-
0.5%) from the calculated ratio.
