CVT-765
Capacitor Voltage Transformer Tester



Part Number(s) 9025-UC [CVT-765]

The Vanguard CVT-765 is a microprocessor-based, single phase, automatic, transformer turns-ratio tester. This portable test unit is specifically designed to measure the turns-ratios of Voltage Transformers (VT’s), Potential Transformers (PT’s), and Capacitor Voltage Transformers (CVT’s).

The CVT-765 determines the transformer turns-ratio using the IEEE C57.12.90 measuring method. It uses a 7500Vac excitation voltage source to accurately measure the turns-ratio of Capacitor Voltage Transformers with a rating of up to 765KV. The transformer turns-ratio is determined by precisely measuring the voltages across the unloaded transformer windings.

The CVT-765 can measure the turns-ratios of Capacitor Voltage Transformers ranging from 75 to 15,000. The measured turns-ratio, winding polarity, and winding phase angle are displayed on the unit’s LCD screen.

Standalone or computer-controlled
Can test CVT's rated up to 765 KV
