8. Operation
8.1 Manual Mode Operation
This section explains how to operate the CTTx5 and CTTx2 in manual mode. It is
assumed the CT under test is not installed in a power transformer, circuit breaker
or any other larger system.
8.1.1 Connections
1. Before connecting the CTT instrument to any other cable/equipment, make
sure the ground post is earthed properly using the provided ground cable.
2. Connect the CTT to a power source and then turn on the instrument.
3. Connect X1 and X2 clips to the CT's secondary terminals. The manual mode
only allows single winding testing at a time and therefore, only X1 and X2 clips
are used. Clips X3, X4 and X5 are left floating (CTTx5), or are non-existent in
case of a CTTx2.
4. Connect H1 and H2 clamps to the primary side of the CT under test. Make
sure to respect the CT polarity. CTs are typically marked with a label on their
H1 side.
5. In order to reduce nearby induction effects, the terminal on which is connected
the H2 clamp, must be shorted to ground.
