CP CU1
The CP GB1 grounding box is a surge arrestor unit for connecting the CP CU1 to the test object.
If high voltage appears for a short time on the test object’s terminals, an arc discharges the
voltage and extinguishes without destroying the grounding box. If the arc persists for a longer
time period, the surge arrestor insulator melts and the terminals are short-circuited to ground,
thereby protecting the operating staff, CP CU1 and CPC 100.
To short the phases, connect the line studs of the CP GB1 as shown below.
