F6300

HIGH-POWER CURRENT AMPLIFIER

Using the F6300 High-Power Current Amplifier in combination with the F6150 Power
System Simulator takes you to the next level of realistic power system simulation for
protection scheme testing. With this powerful combination, the performance of the pro­tection scheme can be evaluated for practically all power system events.

Applications

• Test protection schemes by simulating

3-phase close-in fault with high short
circuit current for a realistic simulation of
power system events. Up to 180 Amps,
3 phase.

• Test high burden protection schemes,

(e.g. primary and secondary schemes
simultaneously), or electromechani-

cal protection schemes. The powerful

combination of the F6300 and F6150
provides you with the high power cur­rent source to drive the desired level of
current for realistic simulation of power
system events.

• Use the F6300 and F6150 combina­tion to perform dynamic and transient
testing of 3 winding, 3 phase current
differential protection schemes that
require up to 9 high power current
sources. Up to 60 Amps, 3 phase.

F6300 Features

• High Power – Capable of testing com-
plete high-burden electromechanical
protection schemes and panels.

• Transient Mode – Two channels up to

180 A at 675 VA to simulate close-in
faults on the power system.

• Flexibility – Configurable sources for
testing high-burden protection schemes
and three-winding transformer differen­tial protection.

• Multiple Ranges – Delivers maximum
power even at low currents for test­ing of high burden electromechanical
schemes such as earth / ground fault
relays.

• Reliability – Rugged construction and
proven, state-of-the-art design provide
laboratory accuracy without compromis­ing field performance.

F6300 APPLICATION EXAMPLE AND DESCRIPTION

The F6300 and F6150 combination can easily test all high-burden electromechanical
relays. The burden presented by electromechanical relay-based protection schemes are

very high, requiring high-power current sources to drive the necessary current. When
used together, the F6300 and F6150 can deliver three currents up to 90 A, 3-phase
continuous at 450 VA or 180 A for 1.5 seconds at 675 VA.

Three voltage sources and one current source of 450 VA are provided by the F6150,

while two 450 VA current sources are provided by the F6300.
