4. Experimental Method
Figure 2 shows a schematic diagram of the
experimental set-up. The Haefely recurrent surge
generator (RSG, type DFE 374) is connected
directly to the high voltage terminal of the
transformer, the low voltage winding is shorted and
connected to ground. This is done in order to
conform with the chopped wave test with fill
voltage as specified by testing standard (ANSI
C57.98-1986: IEEE Guide for Transformer Impulse
Tests). The RSG is capable of voltages that are
continuously variable from 0 to 500V. It can also
generate waveforms with wavefi-ont times, variable
from 0.2 to 5 0 0 p and wavetails to fall to half value
variable from 0.3 to 9000p. It also has the facility
for chopping the waveform at any time on either the
wavefront or wavetail. The transformer used in the
present work is an oil insulated IO-kVA distribution
type. For the experimental procedure the oil was
drained out and the transformer was removed from
the tank. A number of tapping points were taken out
along the length of the high voltage winding. These
points were taken as voltage probe points for the
experiments. All the probe points were kept as short
as possible to minimise the inductance of connecting
wires and all the connections were securely bonded
in order to prevent spurious signals being generated
at the joints. The results were recorded on a digital
oscilloscope (HP 54600A). The oscilloscope was
interfaced with a computer using a data acquisition
card ( type AT-GPIB/ TNT) whose sampling rate is
1 GHZ. All data is saved in ASCII format for further
processing and analysis.

up to 13ps. The maximum longitudinal stress occurs
at the ends and its value is of the order of 0.8 p.u.
Similar values were obtained for the 10-section
winding.
6. Discussion
The analytical results obtained by using the
parameters in reference [7] follow the trends given
in the present work. It should be pointed out that in
the present work the following entities were carried
out
Establishment of a new set of ODEs
representing the equivalent ladder network.
These ODEs are solved using a numerical
technique namely; the Runge-Kutta method.
This method improves the efficiency of calculations.
It can be seen that evaluation of Duhamel integral is
rendered unnecessary. Other authors [6,7,8,9] also
have developed techniques that avoid the usage of
Duhamel integral for obtaining the final results. In
this work the representation of the network is similar
to the state-space approach [9].
From the analysis of transformer winding behaviour
under surge conditions, some important features
have been found as follows: a) There is a critical
value of chopping time at which the chopped
impulse wave form results in the maximum voltage
to ground, therefore it leads to the highest stress in
the insulation. The standard chopped wave test does
not always reveal the highest stress in the
transformer windings. Hence the critical chopping
time should be determined for each transformer
