Measurements obtained in transformer tests are routinely used for computing associated steady-state model parameters, which can then be used for load flow simulation and other modeling applications. The short circuit and open circuit tests are most commonly performed with this purpose, allowing estimation of series and parallel branch transformer parameters. In this study, an extended model is proposed which does not employ the usually assumed cantilever circuit approximation and explicitly accounts for transformer connection resistance. An estimation of the proposed model parameters is enabled by usage of additional measurements yielded by the direct current (DC) resistance test. The proposed approach is validated by means of an experiment carried out on a real distribution power transformer, whose results demonstrate that the proposed model and parameter computation approach effectively decompose total transformer resistance into winding and contact components. Furthermore, the numerical results show that contact resistance is not negligible especially for low voltage windings, which reinforces the usefulness of the proposed model in providing detailed modeling of transformer resistances.
