Option 1 : Indirect loading test

Phantom Loading:

  • Phantom loading is used to test the wattmeter and energy meter.
  • The pressure coil is supplied from a voltage source( power is negligible) and the current coil is supplied from another circuit operating at low voltage but at the required current.
  • So watt meter/energy meter see rated voltage and rated current but the power used for testing is very low.
  • This is an indirect way of the load test.
  • Direct loading requires rated voltage and current and so power is large.
  • Testing at various power factors is also easy in phantom loading.
  • It requires only a phase-shifting transformer to shift the phase of voltage with respect to current.
  • The power required is less, depending on the voltage required to send rated current( even 5 to 10 percent,) under phantom loading.
