Try Cutler Hammer for Secondary Injection Test Kit

Eaton Cutler Hammer 7801C57For checking circuit breaker and protective relay systems, the secondary injection test set is an essential piece of electrical test equipment for companies to use. It differs from the standard primary injection testing method in that it does not require high current to be passed through the primary current path, but rather tests the breaker as a result of low level signals sent directly to the solid state trip device that controls the operation of the breaker.

The ABB SACE PRO10/T Secondary Injection Test Set

ABB PR010/T Secondary Injection Test SetCircuit breakers should be tested on regular intervals to mitigate the risk of failure. A faulty breaker can cause a lot of problems if a fault condition were to occur. It is a good idea to have reliable tools that can thoroughly test the circuit breakers to avoid problems in the electrical system. One of the tools that offers complete diagnostic features for secondary injection testing of circuit breakers is the ABB PR010/T Secondary Injection Test Set.

What is a Secondary Injection Test Kit

Square D by Schneider S33595 Secondary Injection Test Set

The protective devices that are used for the oversight and operational decision making in low voltage circuit breakers (LVCBs) are are often simply referred to as a Solid-State Trip device (SST).  They are essentially protective relays that are frequently an integrated part of a low voltage circuit breaker and monitor the primary current path of the circuit breaker.  In normal operation, these solid-state trip devices will sense changes in the primary current path and make the decision to open the circuit based on the magnitude and duration of the fluctuation.

Choosing an ABB Secondary Injection Test Kit Suitable for Your Needs

ABB 504 Secondary Injection Test Set Secondary injection testing is a diagnostic method of determining if a secondary protective device will respond as  expected in both normal and faulted conditions. This method of testing is conducted by injecting signals directly into the trip unit that controls that operation of the circuit breaker to which it is connected.

Since this type of operational testing is performed by injecting secondary signals into the device instead of using primary current levels, it is generally considered to be a safer method of verifying the proper operation of a circuit breaker. This method of testing can be performed on circuit breakers as a part of commissioning or preventive maintenance.

Rent Eaton Cutler Hammer 70C1056G52 to Test Digitrip Circuit Breakers

Eaton Cutler Hammer 70C1056G52 Functional Test KitCircuit breakers are used in homes, office buildings, and electric facilities. These instruments are prone to break down as they gather moisture, contaminants, and dirt while in use. If not maintained regularly, ciruit breakers insulation becomes weak as a result of the heat that is created due to arc interruption. Chemicals like hydrogen sulphide or chlorine can also be major factors in the damage and corrosion of insulation as well as metal components of circuit breakers.
