7-Pole Test Switch Protectors
6442 & 6442-C
With safety always being a concern while working with electrical boxes, you can depend on TESCO’s Test Switch Protectors (Catalog No. 6442 & 6442-C) to alleviate any uncertainty. This was developed to provide temporary protection of the test switch and to address the rising concern that the terminals of the test switch are exposed while you’re working in the box. The switch protector can prevent incidental contact with live terminals or contact with tools. TESCO’s Test Switch Protectors are constructed of clear, flexible PVC with a voltage rating of 2500V. The switch protector will fit any brand of test switch, regardless of manufacturer, from 4 to 7-pole. TESCO can also develop custom designs of this product to meet unusual test switch configurations.

Total Energy System
5000
The electric vehicle (EV) charging market is rapidly expanding, with more and more people switching to electric cars. As the demand for EV charging stations increases, so does the amount of energy that is being exchanged. This energy exchange market is already massive, with charging peaks reaching into the megawatts of energy. With this amount of energy comes a significant amount of revenue, which requires the most accurate billing possible. That’s where TESCO’s Catalog No. 5000 – Total Energy System comes in. The Catalog No. 5000 is a double duo system that enables the testing and accuracy verification of Electric Vehicle Service Equipment (EVSE) and Field Test Equipment for testing EVSE’s in the field. This system is a dual-purpose DC and AC System and includes both a 100A AC (ACT-100) Test System and a 200A DC Test System (DCT-200).

Desktop Test Interface Station
2210
TESCO’s new Desktop Test Interface Station (Catalog No. 2210) provides metering professionals with exceptional testing flexibility. The Test Interface Station is ergonomically designed for meter technicians working in a lab or a desktop, yet still rugged for field use. The Test Interface Station includes a zero insertion force (ZIF) meter socket, voltage selection, form selection, open/closed-link selection and bi-directional cabling to power a load box/test kit & connect test standard potentials. When combined with a test kit/test standard and powered via 120 VAC, the Test Interface Station creates a single position, stand-alone, meter accuracy testing device for various socket based meters (both mechanical & solid-state).

Training Board
1500
The TESCO Training Boards were designed to create different problematic installation scenarios that a meter technician may encounter at an installation. The Training Boards are comprised of three independent meter sockets (Forms 1S, 2S and 12S) on the front of the board (trainee side). The back of the Training Board has three control panels, one for each socket, with switches that will create the different scenarios, in which the trainee must troubleshoot. TESCO Training Boards are the perfect solution for training new employees or to use as a refresher for senior meter technicians.

AMI Meter Farms
Do you have new AMI meters going into the field? Or have you already deployed your new meters, but will have firmware upgrades soon? Allow us to introduce the TESCO Meter Farm, our newest offering to support your AMI Meter Deployment. The Meter Farm powers up banks of meters and runs a current load through each meter. TESCO Meter Farms are designed to serve as a cost effective method for testing communication, functionality and firmware upgrades from your meter manufacturer(s). The Meter Farm can be used as part of the qualification process prior to deployment, but has been more popular as a post deployment tool to allow large scale testing of all new releases of firmware over hundreds or even thousands of meter points prior to upgrading the entire system. The Meter Farm can also be used to perform long term testing for new hardware releases prior to introducing later generation meters into the field. As with all of our products, the TESCO Meter Farm is built with the tradition of reliability and ruggedness.
