    Great work Serge,very easy, and simple way of explaining ,and taking the eddy currents out of the pie, thank you

    Thank you for this video. Very clear explained. Now I know how to test my isolation transformer to see if it needs to be replaced👍🏽

    My foreman just dropped a transformer on its side today.
    I’ll look like a hero when I test it tomorrow haha thank you.

      Very much so. 1,750 lbs, 300kVA

      Without a Megger or insulation tester, some of these checks with a Volt meter are just fundamental or trial?

      @@6615Dean those tests were conducted with a megger but it only went up to 1000 volts. A visual inspection should be performed in addition. That was one of the points I was trying to make in the video.

      Im not sure our company owns a Megger haha or cares…
      So with a volt meter I could test the windings to ensure each winding has the same amount of resistance, test continuity to ensure no windings or phases are compromised, check phases to ground.
      But without a Megger I cannot properly check the windings can safely handle 600v-1000v and that the insulation is not compromised? Correct?
      I’ll do my best to get a Megger on site and I’ve suggested this already. We shall see.

    Sorry, to make sure that the resistance value measuring method is okay,you should be turning multi meter to resistance meter not buzzer meter,
    You read 1 digit that meaning is more than value range of the buzzer position mode.
    As you already now the value of the roller winding is more

    This is a good introductory video on testing transformers. Some minor things are a little off, but good video

    The core information was well put together and delivered, but the audio needed some more volume. Please speak louder.
