GENERAL INFORMATION

What is the Tan Delta Test?

Since transformer oil is used in circuit breakers, cables and switches, it is necessary to test the conditioning of the oil. This is because it strengthens the dielectric properties of the oil and hence the Tan Delta Test is used to know the condition of the oil in the transformer.

What is the Purpose of the Tan Delta Test?

The main purpose of the tan delta test is to ensure that the transformer operates safely and reliably. It gives the result of the insulation behavior of the windings by calculating the spread factor and capacitance values.

With the tan delta test method, the loss factor and capacitance values at the required frequency level can be easily known. Thus, any aging factor can be detected earlier and the relevant action can be taken.
