tions" on page 12 are complete, the mains 
power cord is connected to the power outlet.

5] 

Set the "RANGE"selector to the required 
test current, as high as possible but not more 
than 10% of rated current (power transform-
ers, reactors, rotating machines). For a CT, 
preferably use 1 A.

6] 

For Single winding 

Set switch "R2 SENSE" to "OFF" position. 

For Dual windings: 

Set switch "R2 SENSE" to "ON" position. 

7] 

Set switch "TEST CURRENT" to "ON", to initi-
ate current. 

8] 

The current and resistance values must be 
observed on the display. Wait for the stabil-
ity reading to reach 100% and then note the 
displayed resistance value in the supplied 
reporting sheet or other location.

9] 

When the measurement is finished set the 
"TEST CURRENT" switch to "OFF".  
The "DISCHARGE" lamp and sound will indi-
cate that the discharging is in progress. 

10] 

Discharge is complete when both discharge 
indicator and "TEST CURRENT" lamp are off.

 Warning 

Do not disconnect any test leads until 
the "DISCHARGE" light goes out and the 
sound stops.

Note

  The discharge of a transformer after testing is 

critical to prevent excessive voltage build-up 
across the transformer bushings upon removal 
the test leads. The MTO106 discharge circuitry 
is built-in and will automatically initiate when 
the current source is disconnected from the 
transformer. It will also provide visual and 
audible indication of discharging. 

4.3 Testing Delta winding 
resistance

Testing Delta winding resistance may be a very time 
consuming procedure, in particular LV winding 
deltas. The correct balance time can take up to 30-60 
minutes for a large transformer, which far exceeds the 
time restriction of many tests. 
The method for quickly testing delta configurations 
requires that both the high side and low side be 
connected in series with the Transformer Ohmmeter’s 
current source (see connection table 1). By using 
both HV and LV windings to magnetize the core, the 
effective test current increases with the turn ratio.

injecting test current and measuring two
