FAQ
Q: What is the full blind test function?
A: The full blind test function allows the instrument to measure the turns ratio and vector group of a transformer without any nameplate information or manual wiring selection. It automatically identifies the transformer connection mode and vector group, which is extremely useful for testing old, unmarked or damaged transformers.
Q: How long does the battery last?
A: The built-in 7.4V/5Ah lithium battery can perform more than 800 consecutive tests on a single charge, which is sufficient for 3-5 days of field work. The charging time is about 3 hours.
Q: Can it test special transformers such as Z-type grounding transformers?
A: Yes. It supports all common transformer types including Z-type grounding transformers, rectifier transformers, furnace transformers and traction transformers.
Q: Does it support on-load tap changer test?
A: Yes. It supports continuous test of all taps of on-load tap-changing transformers. You can directly switch taps during the test without discharging the transformer, which greatly improves test efficiency.
