Abstract

Within the framework of distribution and transmission grids, the knowledge of Instrument Transformers (ITs) behavior in distorted conditions is a topic of great interest. Its relevance stems from the ITs wide use in metering, protection, monitoring and control applications, where their role is to reduce voltage and current to levels compatible with measuring instrument inputs. In force standards require that the performance of measuring instruments is assessed under realistic conditions. On the contrary, performance tests of ITs are generally carried out only at rated conditions, so that their behavior under actual waveforms is not fully known. To cover this gap, a suitable setup for the traceable test of Voltage instrument Transformers (VTs) under a quite large set of static and time-varying test waveforms is developed. The paper, after a short description of the setup, shows the performance of two commercial VTs under some power quality events, that are amplitude and phase modulations and voltage dips.
