OMICRON 11
1.6 Grounding
Operating the device without PE and ground connection is life-threatening and not permitted.
► Only operate the TESTRANO 600 with a mains power supply connected to protective earth (PE).
► Make sure that both the PE connection of the power supply and the ground connector of the
TESTRANO 600 have a solid and low-impedance connection to the grounding system on site.
This also applies to all other test devices and accessories in the test setup.
► Make sure that the grounding clamp has a good electrical contact to the grounding system on site
and avoid connecting it to corroded or painted surfaces.
► Make sure that the grounding terminal connections of all grounded devices in use remain intact
during the whole measurement procedure, and are not accidentally disconnected.
► Only use ground and supply cables provided by OMICRON.
Connect the TESTRANO 600 grounding terminal to

the grounding system on site.
1.7 Power supply

Operating the TESTRANO 600 without PE and ground connection is life-threatening and not permitted.
► Only operate the TESTRANO 600 with a mains power supply connected to protective earth (PE).
Power supply from grounded grids (TN/TT)

Before a measurement is started, the TESTRANO 600 automatically verifies the PE connection in
grounded grids (TN/TT).
► If this check fails, check the power cord and power supply.
If the error message persists, there is no intact connection to protective earth (PE).
This is life-threatening. In this case measurements are not permitted and cannot be performed.
Power supply from isolated grids (IT)

An IT grid is a grid structure where none of the active conductors are galvanically connected to ground.
In an IT grid, only the PE is connected to ground.
In IT grids the check fails – even if there is a PE connection. This can be the case when the
TESTRANO 600 is powered by a generator. Since every operation mandates a PE connection, you
need to manually verify this.
If the TESTRANO 600 is supplied by a generator, the equipotential ground or PE of the generator has
to be grounded properly.
► If this is not possible, measurements are not permitted and cannot be performed.

Safety instructions
Additional information
Instead of supplying the TESTRANO 600 from phase-neutral (L1-N, A-N), it may also be supplied from
phase-phase (for example, L1-L2; A-B).
► Make sure that the voltage does not exceed 240V AC.
► Make sure that the power supply is fuse-protected (16 A automatic circuit breaker).
► Do not use an extension cable on a cable reel to prevent an overheating of the cord; run out the
extension cord.
► Keep extension cables as short as possible to prevent power loss.
External Booster
► Handle the Ext. Booster connector with extreme caution.
► Only use booster cables supplied by OMICRON.
► Do not use booster cables that are frayed or damaged in any way.

8.1 Demagnetization
Whenever a power transformer is isolated from the power system, residual magnetism remains in its
core due to a phase shift. Due to residual magnetism in the core, high inrush currents, up to the
maximum short-circuit current can occur. This puts undesired stress on the transformer when it is
switched back into service. In addition, many diagnostic measurements can be affected by residual
magnetism, making a reliable assessment very difficult.
Therefore, it is recommended to demagnetize the core before switching the transformer back into service
and after DC voltages have been applied during diagnostic testing.

8.2 Turns ratio

Transformer turns ratio (TTR) measurements are performed to verify the fundamental operating principle
of a power transformer. By measuring the ratio and phase angle from one winding to the other, open
circuits and shorted turns can be detected. The turns ratio is determined during factory acceptance tests
and needs to be checked routinely once the transformer is in service.

8.5 Leakage reactance/Short-circuit impedance

Short-circuit impedance/leakage reactance measurements are sensitive methods to assess possible
deformation or displacements in windings.
The frequency response of stray losses (FRSL) test is a measurement of the resistive component of the
short-circuit impedances at multiple frequencies. It is an electrical method to identify short-circuits
between parallel strands and local overheating due to excessive eddy current losses. The test setup and
procedure of the FRSL test is the same as for the per phase short-circuit impedance/leakage reactance
test and can be performed simultaneously.
Note: The name of this test depends on the standard set in the Settings view (see 6.4 "TouchControl
settings" on page 39):
• According to the IEEE standard: Leakage Reactance
• According to IEC standard: Short-Circuit Impedance
In this chapter, the test will be referred to as short-circuit impedance.

If auto shorting is selected (ON) the Test current label will be changed to
Output current limit with a preset value, which can be changed depending the
maximum rate of the secondary winding of the transformer (range 0 - 33 A).
Note: To achieve optimal results, TESTRANO 600 adjusts the test current
automatically to the most feasible value within the range from 0 to the defined
maximum Output current limit value.

8.7 Exciting current test

Exciting current measurements are performed to assess the turn-to-turn insulation of the windings, the
magnetic circuit of a transformer as well as the tap changer. The most valued benefit of the test is to
detect turn-to-turn short-circuits in a winding. Physical movement of the core laminations or severe
damage to the core can influence the reluctance and, thus, will result in a change in exciting current.
Deviations may also indicate contact wear or improper wiring of the tap changer.

8.8 High voltage turns ratio

The turns ratio is determined during factory acceptance tests and needs to be checked routinely once
the transformer is in service. By measuring the ratio and phase angle from one winding to the other, open
circuits and shorted turns can be detected.
A low-voltage turns ratio test may not detect a voltage sensitive failure within the transformer. Therefore,
for fault investigations, it is recommended that a high-voltage TTR test is performed to apply a higher
electrical stress to the insulation system.

9 Primary Test Manager

9.1 Introduction
Primary Test Manager is a management tool for testing primary assets such as power transformers,
circuit breakers, and current transformers with the OMICRON test systems. Primary Test Manager
provides a computer interface to the test set, controls the automated test procedures, and facilitates
testing of primary assets by guiding you through the test workflow.
Primary Test Manager uses the concept of jobs. A job contains all relevant information about the
location, the asset under test, and the tests. With Primary Test Manager, you can process jobs as
separate entities.
With Primary Test Manager, you can manage locations, assets, jobs and reports, create new jobs, open
jobs, and perform tests. For a specified job, you can make measurements on the asset under test by just
pressing the Start/Stop button on the front panel of the TESTRANO 600 test system. After you have
performed a test, you can generate exhaustive test reports. Primary Test Manager runs on a computer
and communicates with the test set through the Ethernet connection.
9.2 Installing Primary Test Manager

For the minimum requirements your computer needs to run the Primary Test Manager software, see
9.5 "Primary Test Manager system requirements" on page 106.
To install Primary Test Manager:
1. Connect the computer’s Ethernet port to the network connector of TESTRANO 600 using an Ethernet
cable.
Note: You can operate Primary Test Manager without connection to TESTRANO 600. The computer
running Primary Test Manager must be connected to TESTRANO 600 in order to run tests.
2. Switch on TESTRANO 600.
3. Insert the Primary Test Manager DVD into the DVD drive of your computer and follow the instructions
on the screen.
Note: Upgrade your TESTRANO 600 during the installation, if necessary.

OMICRON 101
9.3.2 Firewall configuration

If you can not connect to your TESTRANO 600, check your firewall configuration since a correct firewall
configuration is essential for successful establishing a communication between TESTRANO 600 and
your computer.
Note: Any change to the firewall settings mentioned in this section requires administrator rights on your
computer.
Windows firewall
The configuration of the Windows firewall is carried out automatically during the installation of Primary
Test Manager. However, in certain cases this may have no immediate effect.
► To prevent the Windows firewall from blocking communication, (temporarily) disable it via the
Windows Control panel.
If you are now able to successfully establish communication, the Windows firewall was the reason for
the blocked communication between your test set and your computer.
► Reconfigure the Windows firewall in order to enable a permanent use of the test set without having
to disable the Windows firewall.
For more information, see "Manual firewall configuration" later in this section.
Third-party firewall
► If you are using a firewall other than the Windows firewall, temporarily disable it to see if this firewall
may be the cause for the blocked communication.
For more information on configuring a third-party firewall to allow a permanent communication between
TESTRANO 600 and your computer, see "Manual firewall configuration" later in this section.
Note: Numerous computer security programs or anti-virus packages also contain an integrated firewall
function. Double-check and, if applicable, remove all such programs that may be installed on your
computer.

This chapter lists the Primary Test Manager transformer tests available for TESTRANO 600.
Note: Some test names depend on the Profile selected in the Settings (see "Profiles" on page 112).
For your convenience, you can use your preferred naming to, for example, match regional conventions:
• IEEE standard: Power factor (PF) for the loss indicator; H/X/Y for the windings
• IEC standard: Dissipation factor (DF) for the loss indicators; Prim/Sec/Tert for the windings
• Custom profiles: Power factor (PF), Dissipation factor (DF) or Tangent delta (Tanδ) for the loss
indicator; various naming options for the windings
The dissipation factor and the tangent delta are identical characteristics of the primary asset under test.
Primary Test Manager supports the following tests of transformer tests:

Technical data
15 Technical data
At the time of factory adjustment all units are within the typical accuracy values specified in this
document.
Typical accuracy means that 98 % of all units meet the specified values at 23 °C ± 5 °C/73 ºF ± 10 ºF,
after a warm-up time of more than 25 min., and in a frequency range of 45 Hz to 65 Hz or DC.
The typical accuracy values multiplied by 3 are guaranteed at an ambient temperature of
23 ºC ± 5 ºC/73 ºF ± 10 ºF, after a warm-up time more than 25 min., and in a frequency range of
45 Hz to 65 Hz or DC.
Accuracy values indicate that the error is smaller than:
± (value read × reading error [rd] + full scale of range × range error [rg]).
For mains voltages below 190 V AC the system is subject to power restrictions.
OMICRON suggests that you send in your unit for calibration at least once a year.
Technical data are subject to change without notice.
CAT level
The CAT level required depends on the TESTRANO 600 application. All CAT ratings are defined for sea
levels below 2000 m. There are some limitations between 2000 m and 5000 m from sea level (see
section 15.8 "Environmental conditions" on page 274).
CAT I is required when the measured voltage is generated by the test set itself. No voltages from other
sources are measured.
CAT II is required when measuring within electrical devices or between mains supply and devices.
CAT III is required when measuring in electrical installations such as control cubicles that are still
connected to the station battery or mains. The electrical installations are protected by a fuse.

15.4 SAFETY connectors

TESTRANO 600 has two SAFETY connectors: SAFETY 1 (primary) and SAFETY 2 (secondary) for
connecting optional OMICRON safety accessories (for more information see OMICRON document
named "Safety Accessories Supplementary Sheet"). Both connectors have as default a removable
Safety Connector Dongle connected to it. Removing either one or both Safety Connector Dongles will
open the emergency stop circuit loop inside TESTRANO 600 preventing the operation of the device.
Using Safety Accessories
OMICRON offers several Safety Accessories designed to enhance the safety awareness and/or safety
when using the TESTRANO 600. The use of a Safety Accessory typically requires the removal of one of
the Safety Connector Dongles to allow the Safety Accessory to be plugged in. Some Safety Accessories
themselves contain a SAFETY OUT connector to allow daisy-chaining Safety Accessories with each
other. If the connected (or the last daisy-chained) Safety Accessory itself also contains a SAFETY OUT
connector, the Safety Connector Dongle initially removed from TESTRANO 600 SAFETY 1 or
SAFETY 2 connector must be attached to it to close the emergency stop loop circuit.
SAFETY 1 and SAFETY 2 connector pin-outs
SAFETY 1 and SAFETY 2 connector pin-outs differ slightly (see Table 15-12: on page 267,
Figure 15-8: "SAFETY 1 (primary) connector schematics" on page 268 and Figure 15-9: "SAFETY 2
(secondary) connector schematics" on page 268).
External START button connection
SAFETY 1 (primary) connector can be used to connect an external START button to allow remote control
of TESTRANO 600. If an external START button is used, the switch must fulfill these requirements:
• Roff (open resistance) > 1 MΩ
• Ron (close resistance) < 10 Ω
• Iswitch (switching current) < 1.5 mA
• Vswitch (switching voltage) < 15 V
