Due to the ever-increasing demand and growth in popularity of such advances as electric vehicles, there are several challenges power grid operators need to face. 1.Growing amount of renewable energy sources 2. Frequent power outages. 3. Increase in Energy Demand 4. Global rise in temperature 5. Grid modernization. 6. Electricity transmission losses.
Frequency response analysis is the technique whereby a sinusoidal test signal is used to measure points on the frequency response of a transfer function or impedance function. Sweep Frequency Response Analysis (SFRA) testing provides insight into the mechanical and electrical integrity of transformers.
Main Purpose of SFRA Test: Transformer Core displacement Winding displacement for both rotor and transformer Broken or loosen clamp connections Inter turn short circuit Internal short circuit Winding to Core Earth fault Winding Open circuit condition
