One major part is the replacement of the existing GTO stack trigger transformer by a new more performant one. The transformer is assembled, moulded and tested in-house. Part of the validation procedure are standard DC tests and subsequent discharge monitoring as well as newly introduced phase resolved partial discharge measurements. This paper briefly highlights the trigger transformer parameters and construction and outlines in detail the testing and partial discharge measurements. It concludes with a comparison and analysis of the results of the different measurement techniques.
