Tap changers are operated by means of a motor drive unit mounted on the outside of the transformer tank. The
motor drive is placed in a protective housing containing all devices necessary for operation, including a tap
position indication circuit. This indication circuit has a terminal for each tap with a fixed resistive increment per
tap. A cam from the drive shaft that provides local tap position indication also controls a wiper terminal in the
indication circuit, as illustrated below.
Figure 5–1: TAP POSITION INPUT
The “zero position” terminal and the “wiper” terminal of the tap position circuit are connected to the positive and
negative 745 tap position terminals. Polarity is not consequential. The following setpoints configure the 745 to
determine tap position.
