Uniload Voltage Transformer Test Set
2J6
The Type 2J6 Knopp Uniload Voltage Transformer Test Set consists of three major parts: When the Knopp Precision Transformer in the 2J6 set is compensated for, and used with, a secondary burden of 15 volt-amperes, for example, the ratio of this precision transformer is well within 0.02% and the phase angle is well within 2 minutes. The transformer, in common with other Knopp Precision Multirange Transformers, is wound so that it has practically the same ratio and phase angle accuracy on all ranges.

Field Test Interface Kit
2200
TESCO’s new Field Test Interface Kit (Catalog No. 2200) provides metering professionals with exceptional testing flexibility. The Field Test Interface includes a zero insertion force (ZIF) meter socket, voltage and form selection, and connection points to link it with a TESCO Field Test Kit (Catalog No. 621, 630 or GA Series). When combined with a Field Test Kit and powered via inverter (commonly used on service trucks), the Field Test Interface will then power the Field Test Kit to create a single position, stand-alone, meter accuracy testing device for various socket based meters (both mechanical & solid-state). Power for the Field Test Interface can also be supplied by customer potential via TESCO Field Test Kit (no need for the inverter).

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.
