Quality testing of transformers is an important aspect of the transformer manufacturing process. Ensuring standard functioning of transformer decreases the chance of failure and provides good lifespan. The process of testing every single aspect of the transformer is long and tedious when performed manually. Automating the testing process using a software platform LabVIEW will be advantageous, thus saving time and capital. The test platform is designed to perform High Voltage Test and No-Load Voltage Test. The manufacturing process leading up to quality testing of the power transformer is discussed.
