Capacitance & Tan Delta Measurement System
Model : MLS-11DM (Semi Automatic System)
 

 C & TAN d BRIDGE

Applications :
Power Systems. Testing of H.T. Transformers, Motors, Generators, Bushings.
Power Cables H.T. & L.T. Power Capacitors High Voltage Laboratories.

 

INTRODUCTION

Electrical properties of insulating systems change due to age and continuous electrical stress. By measuring electrical properties such as Capacitance and Tan d regularly it is possible to ensure the operational reliability of H.V. insulating systems and to avoid costly breakdowns. This is particularly important for high voltage bushings, power transformers, generators, power capacitors, H.T. cables etc.

SIVA Capacitance and Tan d test set comprises of C and Tan d Bridge Model MLS-11DM, High Voltage Power Supply Model HLS-4 with built in standard capacitor, and set of cables. The compact design of the Bridge uses the principle of three winding differential transformer on a high permeability u metal core. The Bridge is contained in a sturdy metallic housing with u metal lining which shields it from external electromagnetic & electrostatic influences. Built in battery powered Null indicator makes the Bridge suitable for operation in workshop, factories, High Voltage sub-stations, Switch Yards etc.

The High Voltage Power Supply model HLS-4 is provided with built in SF6 gas filled standard capacitor. It is suitable for both grounded as well as ungrounded objects. Capacitance & Tan d are measured directly, no further calculations are required.

Accuracy : ± 1% of reading ± 5 x 10-4 for MLS-11DM.

Null Detector
Built in battery operated electronic Null Detector. This type of Null Detector is most suitable for balancing of the Bridge. It gives high sensitivity and accuracy for most of the applications and it is very user friendly. Phase sensitivity Null Detector can be given in place of electronic Null Detector on request. For higher sensitivity and accuracy. oscillographic null detector model MK-1 for critical operation is also available.

Interface Suppression
The C & Tan d Bridge has been specially shielded with u metal sheets to avoid the effect of external interferences. This makes the measurement accurate in both indoor as well as out door applications particularly in Switch yards. Phase reversal switch provided in the H.V. Power Supply effectively cancels interference/pick up by the object under test in energised environment. For situation where the induction is excessive, and cannot be cancelled by phase reversal switch a separate three level interference suppression unit can also be given with separate C & Tan d adjustments.

Protection :
The Bridge is provided with built in high voltage protection devices which protect the Bridge and operator against failure of test object or standard capacitor.

1Amp Short Term.

(The H.V. power supply with higher power capacity upto 15 KVA or with a tap at lower voltage for higher current is also available).
 

 

Switch for three different types measurement
1) UST - Ungrounded Specimen test - 3 combinations
This mode is used when the object under test is not grounded. This test provides most accurate results.
2) GST - Grounded Specimen test
This mode is used when the object under test is permanently grounded. This test is used more often in outdoor installations, power systems etc.
3) GSTg - Grounded specimen test with guard. 3 combinations.
This mode is used for measuring the stray capacitances and separating it from basic measurement in GST mode.
 
Indication : Two 3½ digit digital panel meters one for voltage indication with 19.99 KV full scale and other for current indication.

COMPRESSED GAS STANDARD CAPACITOR

Compressed Gas Standard Capacitor is a fixed capacitor used as capacitance standard in Bridge circuit for precision measurement of Capacitance and Tan d of high voltage test objects.

The main feature of these capacitors is negligible dissipation factor ( Tan d ) The electrodes are made of polished metal and enclosed in a suitable housing for protection against dust and moisture. The compressed gas capacitor is filled with Sulphur Hexafluoride (SF6 ) under moderate pressure
