In this video, Felix Feustel, the product manager of the OMICRON VOTANO 100 talks about the new features in version 2.30. These include a capacitive voltage transformer (CVT) capacitance divider test, an import reference excitation curve, a custom burden distribution and the capability to consider the lead resistance.

In electrical substations of higher voltage levels, capacitor voltage transformers, also called CVTs, or CCVTs, can be found.

VOTANO 100 now uses a new method that can determine the capacitances C1 and C2 on all CVT designs, combining two variable-frequency measurements at low voltage. It injects a constant current into the secondary winding and measures current and voltage accordingly. The first measurement determines the frequency dependent short-circuit impedance including C2.

The second measurement determines the frequency dependent short-circuit impedance including C1 and C2.

From both measurements, C1, C2, the capacitive ratio Kc, and the total capacitance Cr can be calculated. This method for measuring the CVT capacitance is integrated as a new test in VOTANO 100. VOTANO 100 can measure both the capacitance and the accuracy of the CVT, which is ideal for diagnostic purposes.

Este vídeo vai he ajudar a dar os primeiros passos com o RelaySimTest, desde a criação de um novo documento de teste à execução de um teste. Familiarize-se com a nevageção do software e aprenda como modelar seu sistema de potência, configure seu equipamento de teste, selecione faltas tópicas e avalie o comportamento do sistema de proteção. Use o todo o potencial do RelaySimTest e valide seu sistema de proteção de forma mais fácil, rápida e intuitiva do que nunca.

Estampas de tempo:
00:00 – Introdução
00:28 – Crie o documento de teste
00:40 – Modele o sistema de potência
05:42 – Configure o equipamento de teste
07:37 – Defina casos de teste

RelaySimTest é uma solução de software para testes de proteção baseado no modelo do sistema elétrico, trabalha com equipamento de teste OMICRON e adota uma abordagem inovadora e orientada para o futuro: o teste é independente do tipo e fabricante de relé, e dos ajustes do relés que normalmente são muitos parâmetros. Em vez disso, ele se concentra completamente no comportamento correto do sistema de proteção. Isso é possível através da simulação de eventos realistas no sistema de potência.

Current transformers (CTs) used for metering purposes in medium-voltage power systems must have a high accuracy to ensure accurate billing. In this episode, SENSELEQ Business Development Engineer Roland Bürger and OMICRON product manager for instrument transformer testing Felix Feustel discuss how current transformers are used in the metering process, why their accuracy is so important and how to avoid errors that can lead to inaccurate billing and revenue losses.

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:

- how to connect to the VDS interface with the circuit breaker test set
- how to accurately measure the states of the main contacts
- how to record the voltages of the primary conductors
- and how to get the calculated operation times.

Just as on land, rotating electrical machines used to generate electrical power for lighting, critical equipment and communications systems on cruise ships and other large vessels are subject to various mechanical, electrical and environmental forces that can affect their condition.

To keep motors and generators reliably operating on the high seas, certain electrical diagnostic tests are recommended on a regular basis to assess the condition of the electrical insulation, to detect potential failure-causing defects and to plan equipment maintenance and even replacement accordingly.

In this episode of Energy Talks, Fabian Öttl, OMICRON expert for diagnostic testing on rotating electrical machines, and Patrick Zander, OMICRON expert for PD testing and monitoring, discuss which diagnostic tests should be regularly performed on rotating electrical machines used on cruise ships and other vessels. They also highlight the testing challenges on ships as well as the types of measurement equipment that help make diagnostic testing easier in small, limited spaces and noisy environments.
