EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
As part of the acceptance testing, these generators and accessories are tested in accordance to standard testing
procedure in order to evaluate its present condition and to establish benchmark for future assessments.
Base on the series of test conducted, all results were found to be satisfactory aside from the significant ipf tip up
results on stator which requires thorough reconditioning on the next planned shutdown.
Comprehensive diagnostic testing is highly recommended to monitor overall condition of the generator and
accessories.

Test Equipment Teldar CDF12 KV
Reference IEEE 286 – 2000, IEC 60034-27-3-2015
Remarks/Evaluation Acceptance criteria for industry practice vary, but epoxy mica insulation
system often have an acceptance criteria of 0.5% to 1.0% maximum tip-up.
However, if the unit is free from dust, dirt and other contaminants or
additional system curing can sometimes improve results when the values are
outside the acceptance criteria.
Results are satisfactory
Recommendation Trending of winding ipf and tip-up test is still recommended to monitor the
health of the winding insulation condition.
Unit requires thorough reconditioning on the next planned shutdown.
