The transformer winding deformation tester is designed for power transformers with a voltage rating of 6 kV and above, as well as other transformers with special purposes. Power transformers are susceptible to various faults, such as short-circuit currents and physical collisions, during operation and transportation. These factors can subject the transformer windings to high electro-dynamic forces, which may lead to a loss of stability. Such forces can cause permanent deformations, including local distortion, swelling, or dislocation, all of which can severely affect the safe operation of the transformer.To measure the deformation of transformer windings, the frequency response analysis method is used, in accordance with the national standard DL/T 911-2004 for the electric power industry.

During operation and transportation, power transformers are vulnerable to impacts from fault short-circuit currents or physical collisions. These conditions can cause the transformer windings to lose stability due to the powerful electro-dynamic forces exerted by the short-circuit currents. This may lead to permanent deformations, such as local distortion, swelling, or dislocation, all of which can severely affect the transformer's safe operation.To assess the deformation of transformer windings, the frequency response analysis method is used in accordance with the national standard DL/T911-2016 and IEC 60076-18 for the electric power industry. This method involves detecting the amplitude-frequency response characteristics of each transformer winding. The results are then compared either vertically or horizontally to identify potential deformation, based on changes in the amplitude-frequency response characteristics.

The lightning arrester is an important piece of electrical equipment in power networks, designed to protect power equipment from over-voltage. Normally, the operation of the arrester and the leakage current are monitored through an arrester monitor. However, due to poor sealing, the monitor may be exposed to water or moisture during operation, leading to internal component corrosion. In such cases, or for other reasons, the monitor's counter may fail to operate correctly, resulting in inaccurate leakage current readings. Therefore, according to The Regulations, the arrester monitor should be checked annually.
The reliability of the counter's operation is critical for the power system. It is an important parameter that records the number of lightning strikes received by the arrester during normal operation. This information provides a crucial basis for power system workers to inspect the arresters.
