2 Introduction
2.1 Designated use
2.1.1 CPC 100
The CPC 100, with its accessories or as a stand-alone unit, is a multi-purpose primary test set for
commissioning and maintaining substation equipment. It performs current transformer (CT), voltage
transformer (VT) and power transformer (TR) tests and is used for contact and winding resistance
testing, polarity checks, and for primary and secondary protection relay testing.
2.1.2 CPC 80
The CPC 80 is a control unit based on the CPC 100 hardware concept. In contrast to the CPC 100 the
CPC 80 only comes with the booster output. It is not equipped with any measurement inputs or directly
usable outputs and therefore intended for use with CPC accessories for testing.
Currently the CPC 80 is used in the following combinations:
• With the CP TD for dissipation/power factor testing
• As slave unit with a CPC 100 as master
As mentioned above, dedicated accessories are required to allow for dedicated testing. The
synchronization of CPC devices affects various applications as it allows for increased testing power.
2.2 Options for operation
►The CPC 100 and CPC 80 can be operated via either the front-panel control or Primary Test
Manager.
