Study Notes
Motor-Drive Unit TAPMOTION® ED Overview
- Designed for star-delta change-over operation in regulating transformers.
- Incorporates a monitoring system and locking mechanisms for enhanced safety.
- Only intended for use by specially trained and authorized personnel.
Safety Features
- Complies with DIN VDE 31000 standards for safe operation.
- On-load tap-changer can only switch between Y and delta connections when the circuit breaker is off.
- Raises and lowers tap-change operations are locked when the circuit breaker is on.
- If the motor-drive shifts to an incorrect tap position with the circuit breaker on, it will trip the circuit breaker.
Motor-Drive Unit Functionality
- Features a synchronism control unit for added safety during operation.
- Engagement of the transformer circuit breaker is conditional on the motor-drive unit being in a permitted tap position.
- The synchronization control must indicate no errors for engagement to occur.
Function Test Guidelines
- Regular testing of the locking mechanism is essential during commissioning and periodic maintenance.
- Test must be conducted in both switching directions: star to delta and delta to star.
- CAUTION: Transformer must be de-energized before testing to prevent electrical hazards.
