DESCRIPTION

FEATURES

The PTE-100-C is a portable Universal test equipment for

relay tests for electromechanical, electronic, and digital
relays. The equipment can output a variable current up to
250A, a variable AC Voltage up to 250V, a variable DC
Voltage up to 350V. Also the unit incorporates a variable
stabilized auxiliary DC Voltage supply up to 250V and a
fixed AC Voltage output up to 110V, which can be variable
with the PTE-FCF option.

The PTE-100-C is designed in a way that enables testing of

protective relays in an effective and easy manner for the
operator. There is a variable dc voltage output for the
auxiliary voltage supply for electronic relays, which is
independent of the main current and voltage outputs. For
the testing of overcurrent and maximum or minimum
voltage relays, the unit has 2 Displays that indicated the
output value and trip time respectively. In the case of testing
timing characteristics (inverse, very inverse, etc) the current
value being injected can be
presented in percentage of the

The equipment is extremely compact, and

contains all the functions necessary for current
and voltage relays. It incorporates various
measurement functions such as a voltmeter,
ammeter, frequency meter, as well as
measures apparent power, impedance, and
internal and external phase angles. From the front
panel controls, the maximum output injection can be
limited, used for example in testing
instantaneous overcurrent relays. Injection
time can also be limited, useful to safely
test reclosing devices.
The PTE-100-C can communicate with a PC via the
serial port RS-232, and can be connected to other PTE
units via the BUS-PTE.

nominal relay current, in a way you can compare the

results with the theoretical characteristics. When testing
instantaneous devices the unit can be set in the maximum
current measurement mode (Imax), limiting the maximum
current to be injected (Ilim), and limiting the time of
injection (Tlim). The pre-selection mode (Preset) enables the
current value to be pre-selected, when the impedance of
the load is previously measured, thus avoiding the
preheating of relays.

MEASUREMENT FUNCTIONS
The PTE-100-C contains the following measurement
functions:
Ammeter: External current measurement up to 10A can
be measured.
Voltmeter: External voltage measurement up to 400V in
ac and dc, and with the option PTE-FCH up to 1,000V.
Frequency meter: External frequency measurement
from 20 to 2000 Hz.
Phase angle meter enables to measurement
of the phase angle between:
- The current produced by the PTE-100-C
and the voltage in the output taps, the
impedance angle of the load.
- The current produced by the PTE-100-C
and an external voltage.
- External current and voltage.

V
I

Impedance measurement ():

- Measures the impedance connected to the current
circuit.
- 4 wire measurement method.
Apparent Power Measurement (VA):
- The power consumed in the current circuit.
- Power V x I.

INTERCONNECTION CAPABILITY
The PTE-100-C can be interconnected, with a simple
BUS-PTE cable, to any other equipment in the PTE Range
(PTE-100-V, PTE-300-V, etc).
When connected to the PTE-100-V, the combination is a
complete single-phase relay test system that can test
overcurrent directional relays, differential relays, or
synchronizing relays.
When connected to the PTE-300-V, the combination forms
a system of 3 voltage outputs and 1 current, that can test
relays which require 3 voltages to function correctly, such
as distance relays, and directional power relays, etc.
