In addition to the above, T2000 can test the impedance and coupling coefficient of overhead lines.
With external options, T2000 can test: . With the High IDC module, up to 400 A: contact resistances, in the micro-Ohm range; . With the current booster: primary tests, up to 2000 A; with the very high current booster option, up to 4000 A.
The basic T2000 function is to generate current and voltages, as requested by the type of test to be performed, that is selected on the LCD screen by means of the multi-function knob. Test results are kept in memory, and can be transferred to a PC at a later time, along with settings.

The instrument contains a generator, with six outputs: High AC current; Low AC current; Low DC current; Current impulses; High AC voltage; Low AC voltage.
The selected output is adjustable and metered on the large, graphic LCD display. With the multi­purpose knob and the LCD display it is possible to enter the MENU mode, that allows to set many functions, that make T2000 a very powerful testing device, with manual and semi-automatic testing capabilities, and with the possibility to transfer test results to a PC via the RS232 interface. These results can be recorded, displayed and analysed by the powerful TDMS software, which operates with all WINDOWS versions.
The ease of operation has been the first goal of T2000: this is why the LCD is graphic, and so large. With it, the dialogue in MENU mode is made easy. Besides, all T2000 outputs relevant to the selected test are continuously measured, and output values are displayed, with no extra effort to the operator. Also the show waveform feature can be of help: any doubt about strange measurements, distortion and so on can be solved.
Additional feature: two meters, current and voltage, with independent inputs, and with High and Low inputs each, allow measuring CT or VT outputs or any other source.
The instrument is housed in a transportable aluminium box, which is provided with removable cover and handles for ease of transportation. The picture shows T2000 without the protection cover.
The following is the list of available options:
1. Power supply 110 V, to be specified at order;

2. Optional high voltage 1200 V, instead of 3000 V (better choice for 5 A rated CT’s), to be
specified at order;
3. T2000E, model with high voltage at 1200 V and the high current output power boosted to
850 VA;
4. Transit cases: moulded plastic or aluminium;

3 CHARACTERISTICS
3.1 FOREWORD
T2000 incorporates a generator with six outputs. When an output is generated, also all other outputs are present at sockets, unless for the high AC voltage, that can be generated only if it is selected and confirmed by a key.
The generator is made of a variable transformer followed by a transformer. The variable transformer does not reach the zero position; so, when you are adjusting the output current on a low burden, the minimum current can be up to 5% of the range. If this is a problem on relay tests, select the 60 VA power: the current is reduced to one fifth.
3.2 MAIN GENERATOR
The main generator has six outputs: High AC current; Low AC current; Low DC current; Current impulses; High AC voltage; Low AC voltage. Output adjustment is performed via a knob. The following specification applies to the separate usage of these outputs.

3.2.7 Other features of main outputs
- Zero crossing control. Main AC outputs are generated and stopped as the output waveform is zero. This implies that in mode ON+TIME the output drops to zero with a delay from 0 to one cycle after STOP is detected.
- Over-current alarm message.
- Thermal protection: by NTC. The operator is alerted by a message.
- Output adjustment: from less than 5% to 100% of the output.
- Output measurement. The used output is software selected; the selected socket is confirmed by a light.
3.3 AUXILIARY CONTACT
- Possibility to delay the auxiliary contact switch with respect to test start. Delay range: from 0 to
99.99 s.
- Contacts range: 5 A; 250 V AC; 120 V DC

3.4 TIMER
The electronic digital timer has a fully automatic stop, both for make and break of the input, that can be either a clean contact or a contact under voltage. All selections are menu-driven via the multi-function knob.
- Characteristics of Stop input: .. Input connection: two banana sockets; .. Input may be selected as Normal Open or Normal Close. It is possible to select timer stop on input level transition; .. Type of input: either dry or under voltage; selection via the multi-function knob. Maximum input: 250V AC or 275 V DC; .. With dry input selection, the wetting voltage is 24 V; the test current is 3 mA nominal; .. With voltage input selection, two thresholds can be selected: 24 V or 80 V; .. Selections are displayed on the front panel by 5 dedicated lights; .. When the input is closed or with voltage an LED turns on; .. When the relay intervenes the TRIP light turns on; .. Wrong selection protection. If voltage is applied when clean input is selected, input circuits are not damaged; .. Timer start: as the fault is generated.
- Available measurement: elapsed time between test start and STOP input.
- Time can be metered as seconds or cycles. Metering range, in seconds: see table.

3.7 DISPLAY
The graphical display has the following main features:
- pixels: 240x128
- backlight color: white
- LCD type: FSTN
- View area: 135x80 mm.
3.8 TEST CONTROL
3.8.1 Relay selection
- Manual start control: . OFF: main outputs are not generated; Vac aux is generated, and it can be either the pre­fault value or the fault value, according to selections; VDC aux is generated.
. ON: main outputs are generated; Vac aux has the fault value. In this situation it is possible to verify and memorize the relay threshold, both trip and reset.
. From OFF to ON + time: main outputs are generated and the timer starts according to selections; as STOP is sensed, main outputs are removed and the elapsed time displayed and test result can be memorized.
. From ON to OFF + time: main outputs are removed the timer starts according to selections; as STOP is sensed, the elapsed time is displayed and test result can be memorized.
- Other test control selections: . Momentary: in ON mode, main outputs are generated until the push-button is pressed; . Timed: main outputs are generated for the programmed maximum time; . External. This mode allows for the synchronization of more T3000; . OFF delay: fault parameters can be maintained for the specified time after relay trips: this allows simulating the circuit breaker delay.
- Save selections: . Automatic saving. . Test data can be saved after confirmation. After relay trip, pressing the multi-function knob it is possible to save the test result.
3.8.2 Transformers selection
- The LED by the side of the selected output turns on: this helps the operator not to mistake test
connections.

- Test control: by two push-buttons: OFF an ON.
- OFF: all outputs are not generated.
- ON: outputs are generated, according to the selected test. During ON, the selected parameter is
adjusted to the desired value. The OK signal blinks 3 s after the parameter did not change any more, and tells the operator that the test is finished. At this moment outputs are cut off, and the operator is warned to set back to zero the adjustment knob.
3.9 MENU SELECTIONS
The following is the list of features which are menu selected. The menu is operated by means of the control knob marked MENU, which incorporates a switch. The menu is entered pressing the knob and selecting the item moving the knob. Once the item has been found and programmed, pressing the arrow the menu moves back of one step, so that other programming can be performed; else, selecting ESC the menu returns to the main window.
The first selection is RELAY or TRANSFORMERS; after this, the corresponding selections are accessible.
Any setting can be saved to and recalled from the memory. Up to 10 settings can be stored and recalled; setting no. 0 is the default one, and pops up at power-on. Settings are permanently stored in the memory; new settings can be written to the same address after confirmation. For normal mode operation it is possible to recall the standard setting, which cannot be modified.
During the test, test results can be stored in the memory (up to 500 results may be stored). At the end of test, settings and test results can be transmitted to a PC provided with TDMS. The software allows saving test results, examining them and so on. The specification of TDMS is given in a separate document.
When the PC is connected, settings can also be created and transferred into T2000 using TDMS.
The following table summarizes all tests and the corresponding performances.
3.9.1 Relay selection
During menu selections the display shows output measurements, in reduced format. After confirmation, menu messages disappear, and measurements are displayed in the standard format.
The flux diagram of menu selections can be found in Appendix 1.

3.12.7 BU2000: very high AC current boosters
The very high current booster option allows performing high current primary tests with currents up to 4000 A.
The very high current booster is designed to generate the current while over-loading the generator; its configuration changes according to the desired current value and duration. The option is made of two modules: . Transformers BU2000 MAIN and BU2000 AUX: they include the connection cable to the CT and the clamps; . BU2000 INTERPOSING MODULE.
The BU2000 MAIN transformer is used in all versions; the number of BU2000 AUX transformers can be selected as a function of the desired test current and/or test duration. In case of a single transformer the interposing module is not necessary.
The option is designed around the concept to avoid wasting power on the connection cables, by putting the power transformers as close as possible to the test object. This approach is particularly
useful when the test is performed on CT’s in the field, that are from 5 to 10 meters above the
ground. The solution is sound because the weight of transformer plus cable plus clamps is comparable to the weight of the connection cables. The highest the test current the biggest the weight of the transformers, but also the biggest the weight of the connection cables. With this solution, the connection cable to the power source is much lighter, does not pose any major problem of voltage drop, and can be any length.
The following sketch shows the connections between T2000, the BU2000 INTERPOSING MODULE and the transformers (up to 4).

4 PROTECTIONS
- If the test set is not connected to the ground, the test set does not allow for power generation, and
warns the operator with a diagnostic message.
- Fuse on the mains supply.
- At power-on, a diagnostic sequence controls:
. Key microprocessor board components; . Auxiliary supply voltages. If something is wrong, the operator is alerted by a message.
- Emergency pushbutton: if pressed, all main outputs are removed.
- The high voltage output has the following protections:
. Confirmation key: if not turned, the HV output is not generated; . The HV is generated only if selected; the HV selection is confirmed by warning lights; . It is impossible to start generating the HV unless the adjustment knob is at zero.
- Thermal (NTC) sensor on the main and auxiliary transformers. In case of over-temperature, an
alarm message is displayed.
- Thermal sensor on the electronic switch (SCR) that controls current injection, and of the internal
temperature. In case of over-temperature, an alarm message is displayed.
- If maximum current limits and time duration of power transformer generators are trespassed, the
generation is interrupted, and the operator is warned by an alarm message. Note that the opening action is driven directly, and it is not influenced by any possible problem on the microprocessor.
- The 20 mA measurement input is protected by a fuse against wrong connections. The fuse is a
PTC resistor, that increases its value and self-restores in some minutes.
