Testing solutions for protection and measurement systems

Test & diagnostics solutions for primary assets

OMICRONs testing solutions for secondary equipment

are characterized by outstanding exibility, accuracy and
reliability. Whether it is energy supply companies, industry
or railway companies CMC test sets are used extensively
throughout the world and have become an indispensable
tool for protection engineers. Due to their high precision,
CMC devices are deployed for calibrating substation
equipment as well.

Typical customers of OMICRONs comprehensive product line

for primary testing are engineers and technicians working
mainly in commissioning, maintenance testing and test fields.
With OMICRONs solutions, customers are able to test power/
current/voltage transformers, circuit breakers, rotating
machines, and cable systems in utilities and industry.

The CMC356 is the universal test set for

all generations and types of protection
devices. Its powerful current sources even
allow tests with very high power requirements, such as current and voltage transformers testing with primary injection.
The CMC256plus is the ideal solution for
applications requiring a high degree of
accuracy. It is not only a universal test set
for protection devices but also a very accurate calibration tool for energy meters,
power quality measurement devices,
transducers, phasor measurement units,
and many other devices.
With its compact design and low weight,
the three-phase test set CMC353
provides the perfect combination of
