Call us on 1300 024 473 for fantastic long term hire rates.
Description
The OMICRON HGT1 PTM is a reliable and innovative device designed to safely and accurately measure step and touch voltages in substation earthing systems. It works in conjunction with a suitable test injection system, such as the OMICRON CPC 100 and CP CU1, using a variable frequency test current to simulate ground faults. This allows for precise measurement and calculation of step and touch voltages. With advanced digital filtering, the HGT1 ensures effective noise suppression and enhanced measurement accuracy. It is equipped with a logging function to store multiple measurements, which can later be downloaded to a computer for comprehensive reporting and analysis.
