Short circuit between turns of generator rotor winding is a common fault in power system. When such a fault occurs, the rotor current increases and the winding temperature rises, limiting the output of the generator, and in severe cases, it will affect the normal operation of the generator. Turn-to-turn short circuits are usually judged by measuring the AC impedance and power loss of the generator rotor winding. The traditional measurement method is to use multiple test instruments and measure them after assembly on site. This method that requires a lot of test instruments to build a measurement system has disadvantages such as bulky test equipment, time-consuming and labor-intensive, cumbersome data sorting, and low measurement accuracy.
With the continuous development of digital signal processing technology, new microprocessors and algorithms continue to emerge. Based on this, we have developed a generator rotor AC impedance tester based on a digital signal processor. The instrument uses the digital signal processing system as the hardware platform, and gives full play to the calculation ability of the digital signal processor, which greatly improves the calculation speed and calculation accuracy of the instrument, and provides a guarantee for the normal operation of the power system.
