RED PHASE EARTH INJECTION UNIT 4024

The Red Phase Earth Injection Unit 4024 is a switch mode voltage source used with the Model 4023 Coupling Transformer to produce a high current and low voltage, or high voltage and low current, into an earth loop. The current from the Model 4023 is coupled into the earth loop being investigated.

Frequencies from 45Hz to 65Hz can be generated and the voltage drops around the earth loop are measured with the Model 4025D frequency selective multimeter. In most cases, the operator will try to inject the maximum current into the earth loop being tested since that gives the maximum signal for the Model 4025D. For that reason, the 4023 has tap settings for earth loop impedances from 0.5 Ohms to 40 Ohms, which covers most test situations.

Operation: Front LCD screen plus push buttons to operate.
Operating temperature range: 0 °C … +35 °C Nominal temperature range: 18 °C … +28 °C Storage temperature range: -30 °C … +60 °C
Measurements: 29L x 37h x 28 W
Weight: 14kg

• Produces high current and low voltage or high voltage and low current into an earth loop for testing of earthing/grounding systems.
• Offers an excellent frequency range of 45Hz to 65Hz, ensuring the injected current bypasses power line frequencies for accurate measurements.
• It provides automatic or manual current ramping for a gradual increase or decrease of the injected current.
• It features LED indications for identifying and troubleshooting any error conditions.

• Substation grounding assessment — The Red Phase Earth Injection Unit 4024 verifies the integrity of substation earth grids, ensuring they can effectively dissipate fault currents, safeguarding equipment and personnel from electrical hazards.
• Transmission line tower grounding — This device tests the grounding resistance of transmission line towers, confirming they have a safe path for lightning strikes and fault currents to reach the earth, protecting the power grid’s stability.
• Industrial facility earthing —The Red Phase Earth Injection Unit evaluates the effectiveness of grounding systems in industrial settings. This protects equipment from damage, prevents electrical shocks for workers, and reduces electromagnetic interference that can disrupt sensitive electronics.
• Renewable energy infrastructure grounding — This unit tests grounding systems for solar farms and wind turbines, ensuring safe operation, protection against lightning and compliance with strict electrical codes designed for renewable power generation.
• Telecommunications infrastructure grounding — The Red Phase Earth Injection Unit 4024 can assess the grounding of telecommunications towers and equipment. This helps protect against surges and lightning strikes for reliable signal transmission and preventing damage to sensitive communication systems.
