Step / Contact Voltage Tester with up to 50A Test Current

HT2055 is composed of a station and a meter designed  to perform step/contact voltage measurements on electrical installations such as HV power stations (TN systems, electrical substations) with rated test current up to 50A according to international guidelines. Both units, initially synchronized in time and current, can perform an exact calculation of step and contact voltage values applying the real test current measured by the station.

A internal DSP filter also performs the automatic compensation of  noise voltage disturbances affecting the measuring circuit. The instrument permits also measurement of earth resistance with 3-wire method and ground resistivity with 4-wire Wenner method. All results can be saved into an internal memory and downloaded  to PC through Windows software.

The instrument HT2055 you purchased grants accurate and reliable measurements as well as the utmost safety provided it is used in compliance with the indications given in this manual. Thanks to a new concept development it ensures double insulation and, consequently, compliance with the requirements of overvoltage category IV.
