This instrument has been thoroughly tested and inspected to meet rigid
specifications before being shipped. It is ready for use when set up as indicated
in this manual.
General Information
The Single-Phase Handheld TTR Test Set is fully automatic, self-checking, self-
calibrating, menu-driven unit. The test set measures the turn ratio, phase shift,
excitation current, dc winding resistance and polarity of single and three phase
(phase by phase) distribution transformers, as well as power, potential & current
transformers. The Single-Phase Handheld TTR Test Set is powered by
rechargeable NIMH batteries. The test set is a portable instrument housed in a
sturdy plastic case. A carrying case with strap and an accessory pouch is
provided with the test set.
The test set can be used to test single-phase and three-phase transformers, both
with and without taps in accordance with the requirements of the IEEE C57.12.90
1997 standards. For three-phase transformers, the test set is connected to
each of the three phases of the transformer to be tested, and measurements are
made on a phase by phase basis.
Features include:
Self-checking at power-up.
Test turn ratio, phase shift (in either degree or centiradian), excitation current,
vector group (1PH0 or 1PH6), dc winding resistance and polarity.
Storage capacity for up to 200 tests results for retrieving, printing out, or
uploading to a PC.
Saving up to 100 custom transformer settings for faster and easier testing.
The neutral pole must be at ground potential. Before making connection to the
power source, determine that the charger rating matches the voltage of the
power source and has a suitable two-pole, three-terminal grounding type
connector.
The power input plug must be inserted only into a mating receptacle with a
ground contact. Do not bypass the grounding connection. Any interruption of the
grounding connection can create an electric shock hazard. Determine that the
receptacle is properly wired before inserting the plug.
For 230 V input, the neutral terminal of the charger input supply cord (white or
blue lead) must be connected to the neutral pole of the line power source. The
ground terminal of the input supply cord (green or yellow/green lead) must be
connected to the protective ground (earth) terminal of the line power source. The
black or brown cord lead is the live (hot) lead.
The instruments battery pack can also be charged with an automobile battery
and an optional 12 VDC to 120/230V AC inverter.
Megger has made formal safety reviews of the initial design and any subsequent
changes. This procedure is followed for all new products and covers areas in
addition to those included in applicable standards. Regardless of these efforts, it
is not possible to eliminate all hazards from electrical test equipment. For this
reason, every effort has been made to point out in this instruction manual the
proper procedures and precautions to be followed by the user in operating this
equipment and to mark the equipment itself with precautionary warnings where
appropriate. It is not possible to foresee every hazard that may occur in the
various applications of this equipment. It is therefore essential that the user, in
addition to following the safety rules in this manual, also carefully consider all
safety aspects of the test before proceeding.
Refer to IEEE 510 - 1983, IEEE Recommended Practices for Safety in High-
Voltage and High-Power Testing, for additional information.
If the test equipment is operated properly and all grounds correctly made, test
personnel need not wear rubber gloves. As a routine safety procedure, however,
some users require that rubber gloves be worn, not only when making
connections to the high-voltage terminals, but also when manipulating the
controls. Megger considers this an excellent safety practice.
Users of equipment should note that high-voltage discharges and other sources
of strong electric or magnetic field may interfere with the proper functioning of
heart pacemakers. Persons with heart pacemakers should obtain expert advice
on the possible risks before operating this equipment or being close to the
equipment during operation.

Principle of Operation
The TTR test set provides accurate measurements of the transformer input and
output voltages and then calculates a transformer turn ratio. The TTR also
measures phase shift between primary and secondary windings of a transformer,
the DC resistance winding and transformer excitation current. In addition, it
provides polarity indications for single phase distribution transformers.
A/D converter is used to convert the analog measurement signals to their digital
replica. The converted output digital signals are applied to CPLD (complex
programmable logic device) and then are transferred to microprocessor.
The microprocessor is the main part of the TTR test set. It provides proper timing
sequence of operation, gathers and calculates the test result, and interfaces with
peripherals. There are five main peripherals in the TTR test set: RTC (real time
clock), external memory, RS-232/Printer port, LCD display, and alphanumeric
keypad.
DC power supply converts the primary battery voltage (NiMH battery pack, 3.6 V,
3800 mAh) into the voltages needed for proper operation of the test set.

General Instructions
When testing high-voltage transformers, caution must be used at all times and all
safety precautions followed. Read and understand all safety information
contained in Section 2, Safety.
WARNING
The TTR100 has been designed to test a variety of transformers, such as: Single
phase, Three phase (one phase at a time), CTs, PTs and Regulators. The
connection instructions of the TTR100 to the device to be tested are contained
and illustrated within the TTR100.
Transformers
The setup and connection instructions pertaining to ratio, polarity, and phase
relation assume that the transformer under test, connections, and terminal
markings comply with the requirements of ANSI C57.12.70-1978 American
National Standards Terminal Markings and Connections for Distribution and
Power Transformers. The H test leads of the test set are the exciting leads. The
TTR100 will utilize the 8 or 1.5V test voltage level when testing CTs, and it will
automatically switch between the indicated voltages. All other transformers will
be tested at 8 V.
NOTE: The polarity indicated by the TTR100 is relative to the manner in which it
is connected to the device under test.
Notes:
1. The connection instructions of the TR100 to distribution transformer do not
suggest the physical location of the bushing/terminals of the transformer
under test.
2. Polarity of the transformer is displayed for the connections shown.

NOTE: Dots on the housing of the transformer are commonly used to identify
terminals of the same polarity.
WARNING
NOTE: The TTR100 may supply up to 100 mA of excitation current. The TTR100
will automatically select the appropriate test voltage (8 V or 1.5 V) when testing
CTs. Some current transformers with turn ratio of 150:5 and less requires more
than 100 mA of excitation current when excited from1.5 V source. These CTs
can not be tested with the TTR100.

Select Save Settings to set the serial port parameters to those you selected and
to initialize the serial port. Select OK button.
All the test data transferred from the TTR is stored in an ASCII text file. The data
items in each test are separated by commas. Each test is separated by a
carriage return and line feed.
On the PC:
specify the path where the test data file will be stored, or accept the
default path.
specify the file name which will contain the test data, or accept the default
path.
select the Transfer Readings to PC test data button. This causes the
program to go into a wait state where it waits for the TTR to send the test
data. At this time the Stop Reading Transfer button is enabled so you can
cancel waiting for the TTR.
On the TTR:
enter start test number, followed by a dash, followed by the last test
number to be transferred to transfer a group of test results to a PC, then
press 8,
or
enter a test number to transfer a specific test result to a PC, then press 8 .
After receiving all data, communication status window will change message from
Waiting for data to Received all data successfully. If uploading close to 200
tests, the upload may take 1-2 minutes. Any screen saver that is set for a shorter
time than the data transfer time may interrupt the data transfer. In this case either
lengthen the screen saver idle time or temporarily disable the screen saver.
You can view the test data, in a specified file, by pressing the View Readings
from File button. A window Readings Uploaded from TTR opens. At this time
all the user entry data can be entered into the fields which are in the upper
portion of the window.
Excel or Note Pad can also be used to view this .txt data. Excel is assumed to
be in its default installation directory C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office.
Notepad is assumed to be in the windows directory C:\Windows.When you have
selected a program, click on the Start Program button to start the program.
Saving the selected data to a file can be accomplished by pressing the "Save to
File" button. This data is saved to a selected path/directory as a ".txt" file, using
the name assigned in the "Test Data File Name" box.
Prior to printing the test report, the user needs to fill in the transformer
information to properly document the test. If the information has been entered
during testing, it is displayed in the fields. However, at this time it may be
corrected.
COMPANY, once the database has been saved the company name will
reappear when future readings are uploaded. You can change this at any
time. As the user enters additional entries, the pull-down menu o the right
will include it an all past entries.
SUBSTATION and MANUFACTURER, as the user enters more entries
the pull down on the right of these two fields will include all past entries.
This assists in consistent data entries.
TRANSFORMER RATINGS, AMBIENT TEMPERATURE, RELATIVE
HUMIDITY, OPERATOR AND COMMENTS / NOTES are entries made
every time a printout is to be made.
MAX % RATIO DEVIATION PERMITTED is a field used to determine
whether the ratio deviation is within limits and the results will appear in the
PASS/FAIL column of the report.
The blank field on the top of the window may be used to enter, for
example, the name of a test company, etc.
The database can be opened with MS ACCESS using the path C:\program files\
Megger\COMLink\ttrdatabase.
To view the reading from the PC database: From the COMLink Main Menu:
1. Select the Login tab.
2. Press "View Readings form PCDB".
Maintenance
Maintenance should be performed only by qualified persons familiar with the
hazards involved with high-voltage test equipment. Read and understand Section
2, Safety, before performing any service.
The appearance of the TTR test set can be maintained by occasionally cleaning
the case, panel and cable assemblies. Clean the outside of the carrying case
with detergent and water. Dry with a clean, dry cloth. Clean the control panel with
a cloth dampened with detergent and water. Do not allow water to penetrate
panel holes, because damage to components on the underside may result. An
all-purpose, household spray cleaner can be used to clean the panel. Polish with
a soft, dry cloth, taking care not to scratch the display screen cover. Clean the
cables and mating panel receptacles with isopropyl or denatured alcohol applied
with a clean cloth.
Calibration
A complete performance and calibration check should be made at least once
every year. This will ensure that the TTR test set is functioning and calibrated
properly over the entire measurement range. The MEGGER Calibration Standard
Cat. No. 550555 or Cat. No. 550055 can be used to make this check.
1. A simplified self-check can be performed at unity ratio. Proceed as follows:
2. Turn TTR100 power off (red button on a keypad). Connect H1 lead to X1
lead, and H2 lead to X2 lead.
3. Turn TTR100 power on (green button on a keypad). Select 5.SYSTEM
SETUP on the main menu screen. Set 3.RESISTANCE TEST:NO, then
return to the main menu screen.
WARNING
F Keep the leads, which are energized, clear of ground and personnel.
Keep X3 lead clear of ground and test setup.
6. Turn Ratio reading on the test result screen should be from 0.9990 to 1.0010.

CT Current transformer
Safety ground stick An insulated stick (sometimes called a hot stick) with a hook type
electrode connected to ground via an insulated cable. In some
discharge sticks, a resistor is connected between the electrode
and the ground cable. Both are used to discharge capacitive
specimens by providing a low-impedance path to ground. They
must be suitable rated for the voltage and capacitance of the
specimen to be discharged.
Turns ratio The ratio of the number of turns in a higher voltage winding to
that in a lower voltage winding.
