  • The OMICRON CP CB2 is a high-performance current amplifier designed to expand the capabilities of OMICRON\u2019s CPC 100 test system, enabling primary injection tests that require output currents of up to 2000 A. This accessory connects directly to the test bars via high-current cables and communicates with the CPC 100 via a control cable, allowing the test current to be pushed far beyond the standard limits of the base unit without compromising accuracy. The CP CB2 is ideal for demanding verification tasks, such as current transformer tests, high-load relay tests, and contact resistance measurements on circuit breakers or grounding systems, ensuring reliable results with low loss and high repeatability in the field or at substations.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    The CP CB2 connects physically to the CPC 100 system via a long control cable, while the shorter high-current cable is mounted directly on the busbars of the device under test. This configuration minimizes power loss and enables efficient current flow during high-current testing.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      By using the CP CB2, the CPC 100 achieves much higher currents (up to 2000 A), which expands its diagnostic and validation capabilities for assets under heavy loads. In addition, the amplifier\u2019s physical proximity to the test point reduces conductor losses and improves the accuracy and repeatability of measurements.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
