This video shows a test of a 220 kV circuit breaker, which has four interrupters per phase and independent mechanisms, making it rather complex to test. Nevertheless, the used test equipment allows testing it in one go.

After explaining the single components of the test system, the video shows in detail how to set it up. Then all common tests are performed without any rewiring, including motor current, timing tests, motion measurements, contact resistance test, dynamic contact resistance test, and minimum pickup test.

Voltage-Based-Timing measurement, or VTM, indicates that the voltage of a medium voltage switchgear in service is used to detect the state of the main contacts.

The easiest way to do this is to use the Voltage Detection System, or VDS, of the switchgear.

In this video, Andreas Nenning, OMICRON product manager of the CIBANO 500, shows how this is done:

00:00 - Introduction
01:16 - How to connect to the VDS interface with the circuit breaker test set
02:54 - How to accurately measure the states of the main contacts
03:49 - How to record the voltages of the primary conductors and how to get the calculated operation times.

Energy transmission uses high voltage levels in order to transfer energy over long distances with minimum losses. In substations, the high voltage levels are transformed to medium and low voltage levels for distribution. The corresponding medium- and low-voltage power grids are highly interconnected, and thus require many circuit breakers in order to make or break any required connections.

However, the most important task of circuit breakers is probably breaking a fault current. Breaking high fault currents that are many times the rated current within a fraction of a second requires breakers to be in perfect condition. Thus, they must be regularly tested in order to make sure that they work when it really counts. Routine tests will typically include timing and contact resistance measurements. Additional tests allow a more comprehensive condition assessment of all breaker parts. These can include motor current, dynamic contact resistance, and contact travel. Test devices with an inbuilt power supply can even test breakers in undervoltage conditions and find the minimum voltages necessary for trip, close, and undervoltage coils. All of these tests combined reveal important information about the planning and execution of timely breaker maintenance. Condition-based maintenance can help preventing breaker malfunction, prolong breaker lifetime, and minimize unplanned outages; for a safe and reliable supply of electric power for everyone.

The #OMICRON CIBANO 500 circuit breaker test set offers advanced testing methods for high and medium voltage circuit breakers. The test device can make use of its internal power supply, timing meter and µOhm meter in order to perform a number of tests on circuit breakers.

Routine tests on circuit breakers will typically include timing and contact resistance measurements. Fingerprinting through dynamic resistance measurements combined with measuring motion and motor current curves, allow deterioration trends to be discovered.

Ideally, circuit breaker tests should also include the testing of any special functions of a circuit breaker, such as the detection of overvoltage and undervoltage conditions, or the measurement of the minimum voltage necessary to trip and close the breaker (Minimum pick-up test).

CIBANO 500 allows users to test all of these functions with a single device. This video shows how medium voltage circuit breakers can comprehensively be tested with CIBANO 500.

Monitoring the movement of main contacts within a circuit breaker during opening or closing cycles is essential for identifying mechanical wear in the operating mechanism or the mechanical linkage. This is achieved by attaching digital or analog motion transducers to a circuit breaker's mechanical linkage.

Digital or analog motion transducers can be linked to the CIBANO 500 with the CB TN3 accessory. Primary Test Manager (PTM) Software utilizes motion data obtained during breaker operations to calculate and assess performance metrics such as position over time, damping behavior, and arcing zone velocity.

Furthermore, CIBANO 500 can use the same test configuration to test Timing, Static and Dynamic Contact Resistance and the coil and motor current of high-voltage live-tank breakers. This feature can shorten testing time by up to 50%.
