CPC 100 V1.41
CP SA1
The CP SA1 is a surge arrester unit providing extra protection to the operating
staff and CPC 100 against high-voltage hazards while performing
transformerwinding resistance measurements. In case of unwanted disruption
of the current path, high voltage due to the inductance of the transformer's
winding appears on the transformer's terminals and the current can flow through
the voltage path to the CPC 100 V DC input. If high voltage appears for a short
time on the transformer's terminals, an arc discharges the voltage and
distinguishes without destroying the CP SA1. If the arc persists for a longer time
period, the surge arrester insulator melts and thereby short-circuits the terminals
to ground. Figure 6 below shows the circuit diagram of CP SA1.

Before using the CP SA1, check whether it is intact as follows:
1. Select the Resistance test card.
2. Select the V DC (2-wire) output range.
3. Connect CP SA1 to the CPC 100 V DC input.
4. Short-circuit the CP SA1's output and measure the resistance.
5. Remove the short circuit and measure the resistance again.
