12 TM1700-SERIES ZP-BL16E BL1448GE
2 INTRODUCTION
2.1 General
This manual is valid for TM1710, TM1720, TM1750
and TM1760.
In line with the Megger product line tradition, the
instrument is portable and rugged. The concept is a
flexible, modular system that can be easily configured
for any type of circuit breaker.
Distribution circuit breakers with one contact per
phase and one operating mechanism can easily be
tested.
Transmission circuit breakers often have a more com-
plex design with several contacts per phase and sepa-
rate operating mechanisms. Even here, the instrument
is fully capable of capturing any parameter. For ex-
ample, when testing circuit breakers with pre-insertion
resistor (PIR) contacts, the instrument automatically
measures timing of the main and PIR contacts, as well
as the resistance value of the pre-insertion resistor.
The instrument has a straightforward and user-
friendly interface, CABA Local. The display is an 8-inch
trans-reflective screen that enhances the use in direct
sunlight.
The user interface, CABA Local, has been designed
to facilitate setup and analysis. There are, for ex-
ample, integrated help functions that guides the user
throughout the testing. Special efforts have also been
made to reduce the number of connecting leads re-
quired. Furthermore, many functions have been auto-
mated to reduce the number of manual exercises and
circuit breaker operations required to perform a test.
As a result, the training needed to use the instrument
to its full extent is minimized and the time to carry out
actual tests is minimal.
Benefits
▪ Integrated software support with predefined breaker
templates and application oriented software for testing,
assessment and archiving of results. Results in faster
and easier breaker testing. Reduced need for operator
training, shorter connection and testing time.
▪ Stand-alone functionality reduces the number of items
and boxes the tester needs to bring to the field.
▪ Communication interface based on 10/100Mbit Ethernet
standard makes the communication between the
instrument and PC very fast and reliable.
▪ USB interfaces enable easy backup and data storage for
transport from one system to another by using memory
sticks or portable CD/RW etc.
▪ All parameters measured according to IEC 62271-100, IEC
60694 and IEEE C37.09.
