What is the purpose of taking Capacitance and Tan Delta
Test in
Transformer bushing?
Answer / dinesh lokhande
Transformer bushings OIP (Oil impregnated paper) consist of
paper foil surrounig conductor which termiantes at test tap
and oil is filled in between paper. This arrangement is
equivlent to no of capacitances in series.
To check healthiness of deielectric we conduct Capacitance
Tan detla test from specially designed apparatus which
gives values of capacitance and tan delta which can be
compared to Factory test results and designed values.
Vector disagram is as shown below.
Ia* *Ic
* *
* *
*D *
* *
**
*************** V
In above vector we can explian as follows.
From property of ideal capacitor currnet vector Ia leads
Voltage vector V by 90 deg.
However due to dielctric losses, Calculated or charging
current Ic lags behind actual current by angle delta (D -
dielctric loss angle).
Hence Tan delta calculated is dielectric loss.

We have a 12MW power plant & we inject 5-6MW power to Orissa GRID. For this we have a 33KV/11KV switch yard having 12.5MVA power transformer. Some times we draw power during emergency. It is observed that during Export or Import for load less than 500Kw the power factor is decreasing to 0.3 . This is happening only during export or import. During island condition TG power factor OK.Our capacitor bank is provided with our Power plant auxilliary load. Please suggest how I can we improve our power factor during low load (GRID).

how many units will 100 kvar capacitor consume for one day?
Dear Friends, Need your help for connecting APFC panel, Quotation : I have 2 No’s 1000 KVA Transformers, both transformers are having separate APFC panels, ( Tr-1,400KVAR, TR-2,450 KVAR) Now I want to stop One transformer, present load is 650Amps, Max, So One transformer is enough, I have switched OFF TR-1, but PF is not maintaining properly, its 0.5, So now I want to connect TR-2 APFC also in TR-1 Loads, Can any one answer for my Quotation with drawing, how to connect TR-2 APFC panel in TR-1 Loads,
