Signal Strength Analyzer
1160
-
Eliminate trips to a site with TESCO’s CAT. 1160 Signal Strength Analyzer. When a meter is not reporting reliably to the Head-end, or for a new meter, concentrator, or antenna installation, TESCO’s SSA will show you the best location for the equipment. Be certain that your antenna placement is in the best location. The SSA actually joins the network, locates and analyzes all the neighbors, and provides a visual indication of the relative signal strength, quality, and throughput of each of them.

Third Rail Voltage Tester
4E2-1
-
The Knopp 4E2-1 Voltage Tester is designed to detect electrical potential (voltage) between the third rail and ground on high voltage electrified transit systems. Two, redundant neon bulbs are used to indicate the presence of voltage. The prod handle and the tester housing are both made from moisture- and oil-resistant laminated phenolic. The prod tips are made from stainless steel. The tester housing includes a rubber hand guard to guide the operator in proper placement of his or her hand. There are no exposed metal parts other than to the two prod tips. All internal connections are soldered.

10-Pole Test Switch Protectors
6441 & 6441-C
-
With safety always being a concern while working with electrical boxes, you can depend on TESCO’s Test Switch Protectors (Catalog No. 6441 & 6441-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 10-pole. TESCO can also develop custom designs of this product to meet unusual test switch configurations.

Loading Transformer
CL-6
-
This readily portable Knopp Loading Transformer weighs only 60 pounds and measures 12″ long, 9″ wide, and 10″ high. Its sturdy enclosure provides protection and adequate ventilation. Two convenient carrying handles are provided. The insulating terminal panel is rigidly secured to the transformer frame, and heavy-current, bus-bar-type terminals are securely bolted to the panel. The two outpout terminals each have two connection surfaces, one on a vertical plane and one on a horizontal plane, for maximum convenience in connecting the heavy current leads and in changing, when necessary, the series-parallel links. The links and the output connections cannot interfere with each other. All terminals and connection links are plated
