Description of Transformer Resistance Meter

Three Phase 40 Amp Winding Resistance Meter with Auto Demagnetization

The TRM-403 is a  three phase transformer winding resistance meter that allow the user to connect all test cables to the transformer bushings. The unit will then measure the transformer resistance value for each of the phases without the need to disconnect and reconnect cables for each phase. The TRM-403 can provide a fast and stable reading of very large transformers by utilizing a 60Vdc power supply. It is capable of outputting a selectable test current from 1A to 40A. Since the TRM-403 can accurately measure resistance from 1 micro-ohm to 500 Ohms, it can be used as a micro-ohm meter to measure EHV circuit breaker contact resistance, or for any low resistance measuring application.

  • Perform three phase test on a transformer without the need to switch cables
  • Can provide individual Delta winding resistance values
  • Can provide individual Wye (with no neutral) winding resistance values
  • Demagnetize transformer after test
  • Selectable test current from 1A to 40A
  • Computer control via RS-232C, USB, or Bluetooth interface
  • Built-in 2.5″ wide thermal printer

User Interface

The TRM-203/403 features a back-lit graphic LCD screen (240 x 128 pixels) that is clearly visible in both bright sunlight and low light levels. A 44- key “QWERTY”-style membrane keypad is used to enter test information and operate the unit.

Computer Interface

The TRM-203/403 can be connected to a PC via the unit’s RS-232C, USB, or Bluetooth interface. A PC can be used to control the TRM-203/403 to perform transformer resistance tests. Test records (stored in the TRM-203/403 or a USB Flash drive) can also be retrieved, reviewed, and printed. Test records are automatically exported to PDF, Excel, and XML formats.

Safety Features

The TRM-203/403 automatically dissipates the energy stored in the transformer at the end of each test. The discharge circuit will continue to work even if the TRM-203/403 power supply is lost.

Test Record Storage

The TRM-203/403 can store up to 256 static test records (111 tests per record) and 120 dynamic test records internally. For external test record storage, the TRM-203/403 features a USB Flash drive interface port. Up to 999 test records can be stored on a connected USB Flash Drive.
