A lot of public and industrial appliances use transformers to increase and decrease the electrical voltages, and you will be able to spot them everywhere these days. Now if a new transformer is being installed, it is necessary that it goes through some tests. These tests are done to make sure that the transformer has mechanical, electrical and thermal sustainability with the system it will be serving.

Here are several different kinds of tests that must be conducted before a transformer’s installation.

  • Megger Test
  • Oil Test
  • Turns Ratio Test
