Transformer Testing Engineer
Summary
Electrical engineer who runs routine, type and special diagnostic tests on power and distribution transformers (up to 33kV/110kV+, 1KVA–30MVA+) — Megger, TTR, Tan Delta, SFRA, partial discharge and impulse tests — calibrates lab instruments, produces certification reports, and supports NABL/ISO 17025 audits.
Role & responsibilities
- Execute Transformer Testing: Conduct routine, type, and special diagnostic testing on power and distribution transformers (ranging from low voltage up to 33kV/110kV+ or 1KVA to 30MVA+). [1, 2]
- Electrical Diagnostics: Perform fundamental and advanced evaluations including Insulation Resistance (Megger), Winding Resistance, Transformer Turns Ratio (TTR), Vector Group verification, Magnetic Balance, and Load/No-Load Loss tests. [1, 2, 3, 4]
- Advanced & High-Voltage Testing: Set up and run Tan Delta (dissipation factor), Sweep Frequency Response Analysis (SFRA), Partial Discharge (PD), and lightning impulse/high-voltage dielectric tests. [1, 2, 3]
- Equipment Calibration & Safety: Maintain, calibrate, and verify electrical instruments within a laboratory environment. Enforce rigorous high-voltage safety rules, 5S practices, and HSE protocols. [1, 2, 3, 4]
- Report Generation & Compliance: Document, compile, and authorize comprehensive test records and certification reports. Assist during major regulatory audits (such as NABL under ISO/IEC 17025, BIS, or IEEE). [1, 2, 3, 4]
- Fault Tracing & Root-Cause Analysis: Diagnose structural, electrical, or wiring deviations within schematics or physical units. Issue Non-Conformance Reports (NCR) and collaborate with design or production engineers to address
