  • Publication number: 20230341476
    Abstract: A high current source (200) for a test system for testing an electric power device (30) comprises a first plurality of first switchable half-bridges (212) and a second plurality of second switchable half-bridges (222), which are connected in parallel and by means of which a test current is redundantly distributed. A control device (280) is designed to control the first and second half-bridges (212, 222) on the basis of an input signal in such a way that an output signal for the test current, which corresponds to the input signal, is applied across a bridge branch (230) between the first switchable half-bridges (212) and the second switchable half-bridges (222).

  • Publication number: 20230228817
    Abstract: A test system (10) for testing an electric device (30), in particular a high-voltage device, has a portable main device (100) with a housing (140), an electric connection assembly (120, 121) and a mechanical connection assembly (145) and has a portable additional device (200, 300) with a separate housing (240, 340), an electric connection assembly (220, 320) and a mechanical connection assembly (245). The main device (100) can be mechanically connected to the additional device (200, 300) in a releasable manner by coupling the mechanical connection assemblies (145, 245) to form a structural unit, wherein the main device (100) can be electrically connected to the additional device (200, 300) via the first electric connection assemblies (120, 121, 220, 320).

  • Patent number: 10746810
    Abstract: A switch apparatus (10) for a measuring device (30) for a transformer includes controllable switch device (14) which are configured to short-circuit respectively assigned terminals (11) of one of a plurality of windings of the transformer. A test apparatus (40) including the switch apparatus (10) and a method (50) for operating the switch apparatus (10) are also disclosed. With apparatuses (10, 40) and methods (50) according to the exemplary embodiments, the work effort, time expenditure and errors and inaccuracies can be reduced through an automated testing of transformers.
