Universal Electricity Meter Test Bench with Five Positions TST 3/5 Universal

Meter Testing with Closed U-I Links without Isolating CTs!

General

The Test Bench is designed in a unique innovative way and is able to test all types of meters with closed U-I links without Isolating CTs. It can test mechanical or electronic meters, single-phase or three-phase; for active, reactive or apparent energy; Tests - Error, Register, Starting Current, No Load, Meter Constant. Pre-defined Test Plans can be executed manually or fully automatic.

The Test Bench consists of the following components:

• A Three-Phase Voltage Generator EE-500 V/400 VA;
• Five identical Modules EE-120 A, each comprising a three-phase current generator in the range 1 mA to 120 A (100 VA per phase each) and a three-phase Energy Standard Class 0.04 or 0.02;
• Meter Suspension Rack with 5 positions for the meters, Scanning Heads with 3D adjustable Mechanical Support, Electronic Port Readers, Error Indicator, Tariffs, Panic Button, Lamp;
• PC with EE Software for automatic control, search in Data Base and print of Reports, Data export.

Advantages

• Meter Tests with closed U-I links, no need of Isolating Current or Voltage Transformers;
• Overall Accuracy - 0.04 or 0.02; No additional Error from Isolating CTs or voltage drops;
• If a meter is missing, no need of re-connections, just switch off the Module;
• Very light, simple, modular construction; easy for mounting, support & calibration;
• The needed output power for the current generators is twice less compared with conventional Benches, because of the short cables and lack of Isolating CTs;
• Meters with different constant and nominal current can be tested on each test position;
• Automatic reading the meter registers according to IEC 62056-21 (IEC 1107 - old);
• A 10-position Test Bench is also offered - two identical 5-position Benches controlled from a PC.

The five identical modules EE-120A-BENCH are directly controlled from the PC. The energy standard inside each of them is with great accuracy and repeatability. A special program is provided which allows easy calibration with a more accurate standard in automatic mode. The current generation is in wide range, with good stability and able to generate harmonics.
