This realistic training device replicates the conditions and circumstances that an electrical worker encounters when making common power transformer connections in the field, in industry.
A wide variety of activities can be performed, all at reduced voltages for safety (A 208 VAC, 3-phase source is stepped down, creating a 41 VAC, 3-phase system). Both three-phase and single-phase applications are provided. Using banana jacks and plugs, all ground connections, primary connections, and secondary connections are easily made.
Two complete sets of three phase transformers are provided so that transformer paralleling can be explored.
Eight instructor-accessible fault switches are provided, in the rear of the device in order to simulate failure conditions and allow troubleshooting during training.
The training aid provides a safe, inexpensive, efficient, yet realistic alternative to paper-based learning without the danger of full-voltage field experience.
