If the test will fail all the cost (transportation and tests etc.) will be pay by the Manufacturer and
the supply will be stopped until the non-conformity is solved.
The test shall be performed in accordance with IEC 60076-series, if not otherwise specified.
7.1 Routine tests
The following routine tests shall be performed on each transformer:
• Check of the correspondence with approved prototype.
• Measurement of voltage ratio and check of phase displacement.

the top-oil temperature in correspondence to the wound columns.
Before and after the temperature rise test a Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) shall be performed, the

7.2.5 Short-circuit withstand test
The short-circuit withstand test shall be performed according to the IEC 60076-5 with the short
circuit apparent power of 1500 MVA.
The manufacturer is allowed to provide a report, verifying the capabilities of the transformer to
withstand the short-circuit current, if a transformer with a similar design has been tested
successfully by submitting the test report along with the similarity calculations in accordance with
IEC 60076-5. The successfully tested transformer must have a larger power rating than the offered
transformer and the difference in power rating is not allowed to exceed 50% of the power rating
or 5MVA.
7.2.6 Vacuum deflection test
The test is applicable only for transformer with a power rating bigger than 5 MVA.
The test shall be carried out on complete transformer without oil.
Before vacuum is applied, a suitable measuring reference point, attached rigidly to the test room
structure or floor, independent of the transformer shall be established as close as possible to the
points on the tank where the maximum deflection under vacuum is expected (at least four point of
measurement are request).
The distance from the reference point to the tank wall in a direction approximately normal to the
tank wall shall be measured and noted.

distance from the reference point to the tank wall in a direction approximately normal to the
tank wall shall be measured again.

The procedure of measurement is the same of that described in vacuum deflection test.
The permanent deflection is the difference between the first measurement and the last
measurement, when the pressure has been released. The maximum permanent deformation
accepted shall be not greater than 1mm.
7.2.8 Measurement of dissolved gasses in oil
When the type and special test are carried out, before and after the dielectrical tests and temperature
rise test the measurement of the dissolved gases in oil shall be performed.
