Introduction
Introduction
1.1
Designated Use
The CP RC is designated for performing high-voltage tests on GIS. The testing
system consists of the CP TR8 providing galvanic separation, the CP CR4 and
CP CR6 to compensate the reactive power, and the power voltage transformer
(VT). The power VT is part of the GIS and not provided by OMICRON
electronics. It replaces the standard VT inside the GIS and is designed to
withstand the needed test current.
Caution: It has to be guaranteed that the windings of the voltage transformer
can withstand the needed test current.
The busbars, the breakers, the disconnectors, the CTs and VTs inside a GIS
represent capacitive load on the high-voltage side of the voltage transformer
which is transformed to the low-voltage side by the square of the turns ratio.
Without compensating this reactive power, the CPC 100 is not able to deliver the
needed total power. The CP RC and the capacitive load build a parallel
resonance circuit. To get the exact resonance point, the test frequency is tuned
to resonance.
CP RC User Manual
1.2
CP TR8
The CP TR8 provides galvanic separation of the booster output of the CPC 100
for resonance circuiting with the GIS. With a ratio of 1:1 and an inductivity of
8 mH, capacitive loads can be compensated.

Compensation Ranges
Table 2-1 shows the possible compensation ranges. The indicated capacitances
refer to the low-voltage side of the VT. In order to calculate the maximum
capacitance on the high-voltage side, the ratio of the VT has to be considered.
Example: Ratio of the VT = 110 kV:100 V, C (HV side) = 1 nF:
C (LV side) = 1 nF x (110,000/100)2 = 1210 F

In this setup version, a third compensation reactor is added to the parallel
connection from setup versions C (3.43 mH) and D (2.67 mH). For this setup, an
additional CP CR4 unit is required. Thus, a maximum compensation of 2.0 mF
can be achieved at 100 Hz. Make sure to measure the current and voltage of the
power VT on the low-voltage side as shown in Figure 2-1 "General

Preparation
Short-circuit all low-voltage terminals.
All unused VTs of the GIS have to be short-circuited on the low-voltage

terminals.
Caution: Short-circuit the low-voltage terminals of the non-used phases! This
is important since coupling between the phases will result in voltage induction
in the non-tested phases. Thus, the test voltage from phase to phase cannot
be reached.

Measurement of the Leakage Reactance

This procedure is only required, if no direct measurement on the high-voltage
side is possible, for example, due to a second VT or voltage divider.
Provide the measurement setup as shown in Figure 3-3 "Example for

measuring the leakage reactance" and make sure to short-circuit the highvoltage side of the voltage transformer.
Figure 3-3
Example for measuring the leakage reactance
Insert a Quick test card and set the output range to 6A AC, the output
frequency to 100 Hz, and the output current to 5.00 A.
Set the 1st measurement channel to V1 AC, the 2nd measurement channel to
I AC, and the calculate value to R,X.
Press the I/O (test start/stop) push-button to start the test.
Press Keep Result and the I/O (test start/stop) push-button to stop the test.
