1 Introduction

Trench China manufactures a comprehensive rang of capacitor voltage transformers (CVT’s)

and coupling capacitors (CC’s). All basebox types utilize the same design principles and
manufacturing techniques, the information detailed in this manual is applicable in general, except
where noted.
The circuit diagrams, drawings and other data in this manual may vary in minor details, from
the equipment supplied. In all cases the diagrams supplied by the factory and identified with the
equipment will be correct in all details.
The contents of this manual are designed to cover most situations, which may occur in
practice. If any additional assistance is required, please contact Trench China.

2 Construction and types

3 CVT Principle of Operation

3.1 Main components

The main components are the capacitor divider, the intermediate step-down transformer and
the series reactor, as shown in Fig. 3. The step-down transformer and series reactors are
connected to the intermediate voltage tap between C1 & C2. The series reactor is manufactured
so its impedance cancels the impedance of the capacitor; therefore, the full intermediate voltage is
delivered to the terminals of the step-down transformer, in phase with the primary line voltage.
Series reactor and primary winding of the step-down transformer are manufactured with taps to
enable ratio and phase angle adjustment. These are factory preset and do not require alteration
after delivery unless a capacitor unit is changed.
3.2 Auxiliary Components
All items referred to are identified on the connection diagram.
The choke coil assembly prevents the grounding of the carrier signal when the voltage tap

0MWB.17.043 REV 04 8-30

ground switch is closed.
The harmonic suppression filter prevents sustained ferroresonance oscillation. It consists of
a resistor in series with a saturable reactor and a parallel resistor. The reactor is designed to
saturate above the highest over-voltage rating to form a loading circuit, which will dampen
sub-harmonic ferroresonant oscillations.
The protective gap (item 4 Fig. 3) is a voltage sensitive device wired in series with a loading
resistor on a secondary winding of the series reactor. The protective gap is normally open circuit,
but goes in short circuit mode when the intermediate voltage exceeds 190% of rated value, or
when the secondary current causes the thermal burden rating. This has the effect of de-tuning the
CVT and limiting the secondary current available during over-voltage and external short circuit
conditions. The protective gap also serves to further limit ferroresonance oscillations. If the fault
condition persists for more than about thirty seconds, the protective gap will not reset from the
short circuit mode and must be replaced. Its location inside the low voltage terminal box facilitates
replacement.
The drain coil, gap and carrier ground switch are supplied if the CVT is to function as a
coupling capacitor for power line carrier.

4 Inspection

Loose the tight device between the crate box and the truck. Lift the crate box from the truck
and put it on the flat ground. Lift the CVT out of the box. The weight of the CVT can be read on the
nameplate. Operate the crane slowly, when moving horizontally, a swing is not allowed.
All shipments should be inspected upon arrival for chipped or damaged porcelains, damaged
metallic parts and oil leaks. The LV terminal box should be opened and examined for loose
components or broken wiring.
When a shielding ring is supplied, refer to the outline drawing regarding the way the shielding
ring should be mounted on the unit. Check the shield ring for any scratches or points, which may
have been caused during transit and file smooth before installation.
If damage is found in the inspection, the following measures should be taken:
Immediately notify the insurer
Indicated on the receipt the responsibilities of carriers
To prevent excess claim period, a notice shall be sent to the carrier to inform their
responsibilities.
If transportation risks are borne by Trench China, the following measures shall also be taken:
Inform the damage to Trench China as soon as possible.

： Do not use damaged equipment!

CAUTION: INJURY and /or FIRE：

5 Storage & Transportation

Units may be safely stored upright only on level ground, outdoors for reasonable period of
time. Covers should be examined when equipment is placed in storage and adjusted if found to be
damaged or loosened.

5.1 Transportation
5.1.1 To move the CVT, set it in a wooden case with the insulator facing upwards. (To protect the
insulator against dust and moisture, cover the insulator with the protective cover.)
5.1.2 Load and unload slowly not to give shocks to the CVT.

0MWB.17.043 REV 04 11-30

5.1.3 Multiple capacitor units are shipped with the upper capacitor(s) removed and bolted to the
skid alongside the basebox. The top ends of the capacitors exposed by the removal of the upper
units are protected from the weather by temporary plastic bag covers.
NOTICE: Units must be only transported in the upright position preferably with
their original packaging!

5.2 Storage
CVT should be stored in dry and ventilated room, not be directly exposed to the sunshine or
rain, no aggressive gas and medium surrounded. Store the CVT indoors. Keep the CVT in the
same state in which it was delivered until absolutely ready to install it. If unpacked for inspection
purposes, return it to the state in which it was transported, as best possible, when storing.

6 Lifting & Installation

CC’s or CVT’s with more than one capacitor unit are shipped with the units dismantled. They
are crated in sets with all components required to assemble one or more complete units in one
crate. Capacitor units must not be interchanged between different CVT’s.
6.1 Lifting
Assembly can be performed with a lifting crane. The use of rope slings with a choker-type
hitch arranged to bear on the upper metal flange is an effective way of lifting the capacitor units.
6.2 Installation
Mount the basebox and bottom capacitor assembly on its prepared foundation and assemble
subsequent capacitor units on top in accordance with the instruction detailed below.
Bolting the connection lead of the top end plate of the lower capacitor to the lower end plate of
the upper capacitor makes the electrical connection between capacitor units. The capacitors are
secured by axial bolts around the joining ring which must be tightened to 20ft·lb (27N·m), For the
sake of appearance, the individual nameplates should be aligned with each other during assembly.
Fig. 4 shows details of the assembly and connection procedure.

0MWB.17.043 REV 04 12-30

 CAUTION:
It is essential that the capacitor unit serial numbers shown on the main
nameplate match the actual serial numbers of the capacitors installed on the
device.

Accuracy performance may be severely affected if capacitor units are interchanged between
CVT‘s.

Fig 4—— capacitor units assembly and connection

The basebox should be solidly grounded by means of a grounding cable connected to
the aluminum ground pad located on the side of the basebox

6.3 Connections
Low voltage terminal blocks are provided for secondary connections. Secondary wiring
entrance to the low voltage box is by 102 ×127mm gland plate. Carrier entrance to the low voltage
box is by 16mm internal diameter entrance bushing, with customer connection directly on the
carrier terminal.
CAUTION ( refer to Fig. 4 )

The ground connection for the surge protective device

must never be removed during normal service conditions.
This provides the ground for the magnetic unit.

The carrier terminal must always be connected to ground,
either directly, if no carrier is required, or via the drain coil.

Precautions for High Voltage Testing

If HV testing methods are employed on complete CVT’s, the following precautions should be
taken:

Do not energize the HV terminal above the normal rated line-to-ground voltage of the unit.
The terminals “P2” and “P1” are connected to the tapping point between “C1” and “C2”
through the intermediate circuit, and the voltage of the tapping point will appear at them
when the ground link is removed from “P2” unless the voltage grounding switch (refer to Fig.
3)is closed.

The normal operating voltage of the tapping point is approximately 11 kV (TEMP). It is
recommended that capacitance measurements be taken at voltages below the normal rated
voltage of the unit, so that the voltage appearing on “P1” and “P2” terminals during the
measurement will be proportionately reduced.

Extreme care must be taken to ensure that connections to the “CAR” terminal are
completely away from the “P1” and “P2” terminals, because of the high voltage which will
appear there.

Qualified personnel only, who fully understand the circuit involved, should make
measurements.

0MWB.17.043 REV 04 14-30


Maximum test voltage to “P1” and “P2” and “CAR” terminals with respect to grounds should
not exceed 2kV.

WARNING During storage, ensure that all capacitor

porcelain assemblies are shorted!

HAZARD OF Failure to observe these precautions can result

ELECTRIC SHOCK in personal injury or product damage!
7.1 Receiving Testing
CVT can be tested as following:
7.1.1 Electrical Tests
See precautions for HV testing before doing the tests.
Measure capacitance and dissipation factor (tanδ ) of each capacitor unit.
It is important to use equipment with a capacitance measurement error of 0.5% or less in
order to detect a capacitor element failure. This can be achieved by the use of Low Voltage
Capacitance Bridge. All measurements taken should be corrected to 20℃ using Fig. 6。
As there will always be differences between the calibrations of various capacitance
measurement equipment, the initial capacitance readings on installation should be recorded and
used as a basis for comparison with subsequent measurements made with the same test
equipment.
a. Measure the Capacitance and Dissipation Factor (tanδ) for Each Unit
It is possible, but not likely, for a damaged capacitor element to recover somewhat after
de-energisation and the unit capacitance appears to be normal when measured at a low voltage,
as by a low voltage bridge measurement. Factory measurements are made at normal operating
voltage. ). It is recommended that measurements be taken at operating voltage or voltages close
to it in testing lab if in doubt with some unit.
Measure upper units by attaching the test leads directly to the joining ring bolts.
For CVT’s, the presence of the intermediate transformer connected to the tapping point on the
bottom unit requires special consideration. Referring to the connection diagram and low voltage
terminal box, the procedure detailed below should be followed:
• Close voltage tap ground switch and measure “C1”, (HV terminal to basebox with ground
switch closed). Compare to value marked on main nameplate or data taken in previous tests.

0MWB.17.043 REV 04 15-30

• With ground switch still closed, measure “C2”. Remove ground connection at “CAR” terminal
and measure between this terminal and basebox. Compare to C2 value marked on main
nameplate or previous data.
• Measure “C total”, from HV terminal to “CAR” terminal with ground switch open and grounding
links removed from “P2” and “CAR” terminals. Depending on the type of bridge used, there
may be difficulties in obtaining a balance for DF as leakage currents through the insulation of
the transformer windings will cause apparent DF readings below the true value or even to be
negative, although capacitance value obtained will be correct, a change of measurement “C
total” from one routine test to another would be an indicator that additional investigations are
required.
NOTE: On the bottom capacitor unit, the lower end plate is isolated from the
capacitor electrodes and can not be used as a connection point!

b. Capacitance and Dissipation Factor Measurements

The power factor reading from the capacitance and dissipation factor test corresponds to the
DF shown on the nameplate of each capacitor unit. The DF reading depends upon good solid test
connections being established and care must therefore be taken to obtain valid test results. The
capacitance data obtained at commissioning stage may differ from the nameplate values therefore
the capacitance measurement done at commission should be used as a reference for future
comparison. A capacitor element failure will result normally in an increase in the total capacitance
in proportion to the original number of elements and those remaining in operating condition.
Generally an increase of 1% in capacitance from the reference data obtained during
commissioning would be significant. The capacitance of the capacitor unit should be preferably
measured with same equipment and compared to the commissioning data to ensure good working
condition of the assembly.
Capacitance and dissipation factor test can be carried out on all rating of Trench China
coupling capacitors and capacitor voltage transformers.
For coupling capacitors, the carrier bushing is accessible and tests can be done by energizing
either top or bottom end of the capacitor, as required by circumstances.
For capacitor voltage transformers the HV terminal must be disconnected from the HV bus for

0MWB.17.043 REV 04 16-30

accurate measurements.
If solidly bolted bus connections are to be used; it is recommended that suitable insulating
supports be installed to isolate the CVT for the test purposes. Shorting links normally used across
these insulating supports may then be easily removed for the tests and replaced afterwards.
The test methods for assemblies, which have capacitor units are detailed below.，see Fig 7：
• Remove carrier ground connection for the duration of the capacitance and dissipation factor
test
• Ground the basebox solidly to the test set
• Close the voltage tap ground switch
IMPORTANT: Replace carrier connection immediately after test, before
energizing!

NOTE: It is not unusual for dissipation factor (DF) measurements mode at 10kV or below to
exceed factory values, which are measured at operating voltage. If DF exceeds 0.35%
please consult Trench China.

Example for use of Fig. 6

1. Make measurement at field temperature. E.g.:
Temperature = -10℃
Capacitance = 10280 pF
Dissipation Factor = 0.065 %

2. Find out factory values from test report. E.g.:

Capacitance = 10000 pF
Dissipation Factor = 0.055 %

3. Calculate predicted values at field temperature. E.g.:

Capacitance at -10℃ = 100.25 % of factory
= 10250 pF

4. Dissipation Factor at -10℃ = 113 % of factory value

= 0.062 %
Compare values from 1 and 4.

Correction Curves for Paper-Film/PXE Capacitor

c. Measure the transformation ratio of the unit (CVT ’s only)

The use of Doble Test equipment as a power supply to the HV terminal and measurement of
secondary voltage is a convenient method of achieving this.
7.1.2 Measure the insulation resistance；
The insulation resistance between the secondary windings and the ground can be measured via a
2500V megger. The insulation resistance shall not be less than 100 MΩ.
