Page 5 of 28 INTRODUCTION The circuit breaker analyzer and microOhmmeter model CBA1000 is a two-in-one test set. When used as a circuit breaker analyzer, it allows the off-line testing of the characteristics of all modern MV and HV circuit breakers. The test set measures CB operation times as they are defined in the IEC standard 62271-100;...

. External trigger. The test set features a Trigger Out output and a Trigger In input, that allow synchronizing up to 4 CBA1000’s. In this mode, one CBA1000 acts as the Master unit; its Trigger Out output will be connected to all other units, selected as Slave. As the Master starts the test, all other Slave units will measure the timing on Main, auxiliary and analog inputs.
2.8 S (OPTIONAL) TATIC RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT This measurement is performed connecting CBA1000 to the test sample and measuring its resistance. Test samples can be: joints, main contacts and so on. Main contacts resistance is measured in the closed position. . Test current, resistance measuring range, resolution and accuracy: see the table.
Rev. 10 Page 11 of 28 The CB is open prior to test start: CBA1000 issues the Close command; as the contact closes, the test current passes through the contact, and CBA1000 measures the contact resistance variations during the close movement.

After test start, measurements are displayed in the corresponding window. Pressing the knob it is possible to return to menu selections and modify them, and then it is possible to return to the measurements window.
Even if it is possible to upgrade CBA1000, it is advisable to request the option at order: see below for the CBA1000 coding. In case of an order after CBA1000 delivery, use the code in the title.

PII18166. RANSIT CASE CODE The transit case allows delivering CBA1000 with no concern about shocks up to a fall of 1 m. Characteristics: . Black plastic case; . Dimensions: 670 mm (w) x 500 mm (h) x 350 mm (d).
Besides, if the Circuit Breakers has a graphite nozzle, CBA1000 displays the timing at which the graphite is engaged, and when the main contact is reached, thus allowing to check the deterioration of the graphite.
