Checking the winding
You can check the winding insulation by performing a high voltage test. In
this case, you must disconnect all AVR wires.
WARNING
Damage caused to the AVR in such conditions is not covered by our warranty.
-
Checking the diode bridge
A diode in good working order should allow the current to flow only in the anode-to-cathode direction. -
Checking the windings and rotating diodes using separate excitation
During this procedure, make sure that the alternator is disconnected from any external load and inspect the terminal box to check that the connections are fully tightened.
-
Stop the unit, disconnect and isolate the AVR wires.
-
There are two ways of creating an assembly with separate excitation.
Assembly A : Connect a 12 V battery in series with a rheostat of approximately 50 ohms – 300 W and a diode on both exciter field wires (5+) and (6-). Assembly B : Connect a “Variac” variable power supply and a diode bridge on both exciter field wires (5+) and (6-).
Both these systems should have characteristics which are compatible with the field excitation power of the machine (see the nameplate). -
Run the unit at its rated speed.
-
Gradually increase the exciter field current by adjusting the rheostat or the variac and measure the output voltages on L1 – L2 – L3, checking the excitation voltage and current at no load (see the machine nameplate or ask for the factory test report). When the output voltage is at its rated value and balanced within 1% for the rated excitation level, the machine is in good working order. The fault therefore comes from the AVR or its associated wiring (ie. sensing, auxiliary windings).
