The Dead Break Testers have been specifically designed for use on capacitive test points of separable connectors and on insulated polymetric cables in fused cable boxes. Their primary purpose is to ensure personnel safety by verifying the de-energization of high voltage lines before work begins. These comprehensive kits, housed in a purpose-designed carry satchel, include crucial components. The kits comprise the Dead Break Tester, straight contact electrode, handle, Proving Unit, polymer cleaning kit, and an instruction manual. These components work together seamlessly to provide accurate and reliable results.
The Dead Break Testers operate on battery power and utilize an electronic contact device. They offer clear indication of the line’s status through super-bright LED lights and a high-intensity buzzer. This ensures easy detection, even in challenging conditions like bright sunlight and high background noise. With an activation very low threshold voltage set at 100V or 600V, in accordance with IEC standards, the instruments provide precise measurements. They cover a voltage range between 2kV and 11kV or between 0 and 33kV, making them suitable for various applications. Dead Break Testers also feature a self-check function for performance verification before and after each use.
Kits feature a handle that enhances manoeuvrability and promote safety. They also come with a straight contact electrode for versatile applications. For comprehensive kit verification, an external battery-operated proving unit is included. This ensures accurate results and enhances overall safety. The carry satchel offers secure storage and easy mobility, allowing for convenient transportation of the kit to different work sites.
