Frequently Asked Questions

What is a lightning impulse test on a transformer?
It applies a standard impulse waveform — typically 1.2/50 microseconds for a full lightning impulse — to the transformer terminals to verify that the insulation withstands transient overvoltages from lightning strikes and switching operations.
Is this a type test or a routine test?
Lightning impulse testing is a type test. It is performed in type test laboratories, research institutes and HV equipment factories, not as part of routine production testing.
Which standard specifies the impulse test?
Impulse testing of power transformers is specified in IEC 60076-3 and GB/T 1094.3, which define the waveform, test sequence and failure criteria.
