PTE-100-C USER’S MANUAL PTE-100-C PACKING LIST INTRODUCTION The PTE-100-C Relay Test Set is designed to test protective relays based on single-phase current and /or voltage measurement. PTE-100-C unit Its small size, excellent output power and accuracy, quality features, and Nylon bag ease of use, make this product one of the best choices available in its kind.
Auxiliary Voltage Supply Technology By means of a transformer with multiple secondary windings, the PTE-100-C The PTE-100-C combines state-of-the-art digital technology with the tradi- features two independent auxiliary voltage outputs: tional regulation method based on a variable autotransformer and trans- former.
PTE-100-C USER’S MANUAL DESCRIPTION All the elements in the front panel of the PTE-100-C are thoroughly de- scribed here. In-depth explanation of their use is given in the Operation section. Many buttons, namely those that perform a different function when held down, effectively actuate when released, rather than when pressed.
