  • Page 6: Introduction

    In addition to measuring a transformer’s turns-ratio, the TRF-100 can also measure a transformer’s excitation current (in milli-amperes) and its winding phase angle. Three test voltages (4 Vac, 40 Vac, 100 Vac) allow the TRF-100 to test CT’s and PT’s, as well as power transformers.
  • Page 7 Test records can be recalled locally or transferred to a PC via the USB interface. Transformer Test Plans The TRF-100 can store up to 128 transformer test-plans in its Flash EEPROM. A test plan is comprised of the transformer nameplate voltages for each tap setting. The calculated turns- ratio based on the nameplate voltages is compared with the measured turns-ratio to derive the percentage error and Pass/Fail results.

    [] Printer Paper (if printer installed) The TRF-100’s optional built-in thermal printers use 4.5-inch wide thermal paper for printing test results. To maintain the highest print quality and to avoid paper jams, the use of thermal paper supplied by Vanguard Instruments Company is highly recommended. Additional paper can be ordered from the following sources: Vanguard Instruments Co, Inc.
