A>. Check the cable connection between Reactor(L1) & rectifier transformers<T6 T/R>
B>. Check whether there would be any coloring point by excessive heating
with rectifier transformers<T6 T/R>

Measure the resistance value between the terminals 1U1, 1V1, 1W1 on
Rectifier Transformer(T6) after disconnect the lines connected to those terminals.
If there is the difference more then 0.5 Ohms between each terminals
(1U1-1V1, 1V1-1W1, 1W1-1U1)
there would be any failure with the primary winding of Rectifier Transformer.
Then Rectifier Transformer shiuld be replaced by new one.

Check the ‘rectifier module (V29, static rectifiers)’ by multi-meter.
If there is any ‘opening’ circuit with one of the diodes on the rectifier module,
If there is any failure with it, replace by new one.

lf you could not define by the difference, Please inform us the measured result.

1-1. During no - load operation , measure the voltage at the terminals U1-V1-W1 on the Reactor(L1).

U1 - V1 Phase ~ Vac.
the measured voltage

2-1. During No-load operation,

disconnect the cables at the terminals 2U,2V,2W,2N connected to the secondary winding
of Rectifier transformer(T6) and measure the output voltage,

lf the output voltage would be increased and stable above rated value, there must be any failure
with one of the 'Current Transformers(T1,T2,T3) and should be replaced by new one.

3-1. lf the output voltage is still lower & hunting than rated value, continue following procedure.

3-2. Check the connection status between Reactor(L1) and primary winding of Rectifier Transformer(T6)
between the terminals U2,V2,W2 on Reactor(L1) and 1U1, 1V1, 1W1 on Rectifier Transformer(T6).
<< lf there is trouble point or loosen point, repaire it >>.

3-3. Measure the resistance value between the terminals 1U1,1V1,1W1 on Rectifier Transformer(T6)
after disconnect the lines connected to those terminals.
lf there is the difference more than o.5 Ohms between terminals(1U1-1V1, 1V1-1W1, 1W1-1U1)
there woild be any failure with the primary winding of Rectifier Transformer.
then Rectifier Transformer should be replaced by new one.
<< lf there is trouble point or loosen point, repaire it >>.
 lf you could not define by the difference, Please inform us the measured result.

1. Checking procedure to define whether there would be any failure on the Rotating Rectifiers(V2)

1.1 Adjust ‘no-load voltage value’ of No.1 or No. 2 Generator to the same ‘no-load voltage value’ of No.3 Generator.
(Before adjusting the voltages, record the present voltage value in order to return after the test.)

2.2 Measure the D.C Voltage of No.1 or No.2 Generator at no-load by multi-meter at the terminal block ‘F1-F2’ at
the Generator terminal box.
No,1 Generator Exciter F1-F2 ~ Vdc.

No,3 Generator Exciter F1-F2 ~ Vdc.

2.3 Measure the D.C Voltage and D.C Amper of No.3 Generator at no-load by multi-meter at the terminal block ‘F1-F2’
at the Generator terminal box.
No,3 Generator Exciter F1-F2 ~ Vdc.

2.4 If there is any pointed difference between the D.C Voltage values of No.1 or 2 generator and No.3 generator,
there would be failure on any of the rotating rectifiers(V2). Then replace the damaged rectifier by spare one.

V2 : Rotating Rectifier

Rotating rectifier (V2) are burnt or internal defect.

If there is any failure with it, replace by new one.
