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.

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.

Desktop Test Interface Station
2210
-
TESCO’s new Desktop Test Interface Station (Catalog No. 2210) provides metering professionals with exceptional testing flexibility. The Test Interface Station is ergonomically designed for meter technicians working in a lab or a desktop, yet still rugged for field use. The Test Interface Station includes a zero insertion force (ZIF) meter socket, voltage selection, form selection, open/closed-link selection and bi-directional cabling to power a load box/test kit & connect test standard potentials. When combined with a test kit/test standard and powered via 120 VAC, the Test Interface Station creates a single position, stand-alone, meter accuracy testing device for various socket based meters (both mechanical & solid-state).

Hot Socket Simulator
Hot Socket Simulator
-
The new TESCO Hot Socket Simulator gives you the ability to investigate meter failure issues related to hot socket phenomenon. The Simulator is equipped with one 2S meter socket with four jaws, one of which is the heated jaw. The arcing/heating apparatus can be moved to any of the four jaws (jaw 1 is the standard). Additional arcing/heating elements can be provided as an option for multiple hot jaws on the existing socket.

Total Energy System
5000
-
The electric vehicle (EV) charging market is rapidly expanding, with more and more people switching to electric cars. As the demand for EV charging stations increases, so does the amount of energy that is being exchanged. This energy exchange market is already massive, with charging peaks reaching into the megawatts of energy. With this amount of energy comes a significant amount of revenue, which requires the most accurate billing possible. That’s where TESCO’s Catalog No. 5000 – Total Energy System comes in. The Catalog No. 5000 is a double duo system that enables the testing and accuracy verification of Electric Vehicle Service Equipment (EVSE) and Field Test Equipment for testing EVSE’s in the field. This system is a dual-purpose DC and AC System and includes both a 100A AC (ACT-100) Test System and a 200A DC Test System (DCT-200).

Precision Multirange Current Transformer
P-5000
-
The P-5000 transformer is a laboratory standard. The unit’s excellent accuracy and the Knopp One-to-One calibrating feature make this precision transformer well-suited as a standard for calibration work. This transformer can provide a very accurate determination of the ratio and phase angle characteristics of current instrument transformers having ratios from 5 to 5,000 amperes. This transformer also can accurately extend the range of a 5 ampere ammeter or wattmeter to cover all current values up to 5,000 amperes.

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.

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.
