Tan Delta Testing of power cable

Tan Delta Testing in 33 kV UG power cables 132 kV switch yard using OMICRON CPC 100 & CP TD12.

Tan Delta testing can be done on various power types of equipment used in substations like transformers, current transformer, potential transformer, transformer bushing, cables, generators.

It is performed to assess the quality of insulation.

Tan Delta testing, also known as Dissipation Factor (DF) or Power Factor (PF) testing, is a method used to evaluate the dielectric condition of insulation materials in electrical equipment.

It measures the ratio of resistive losses to the capacitive reactance in the insulation under test. In simpler terms, Tan Delta testing assesses how efficiently the insulation material is functioning.
