The DB-1 demonstration board is an indispensable element of training courses regarding realisation of
electric measurements. It may be applied in schools, distribution centres of meters used in the power industry as
well as in training centres.
The board may be used for the purpose of simulation of the following measurements:
- measurement of the short circuit loop impedance in the L-N circuit for the TT and TN networks
- measurement of the short circuit loop impedance in the L-PE circuit for the TT and TN networks
- measurement of the parameters of the RCD switch type AC
- insulation resistance measurement in the L-N circuit
- insulation resistance measurement in the L-PE circuit
- measurement of the earth resistance by means of the technical method
- earth resistance measurement using clamps
- earth resistance measurement by means of the two-clamp method
- earth resistance measurements by means of the impulse method
- earth resistance measurements using meters for short-circuit loop measurements
- resistivity measurements of three kinds of ground
- measurement of the resistance of equipotential bondings
- measurement of alternating voltage
The demonstration board makes it possible to cause irregularities in the installation under scrutiny. This is
possible thanks to the panel switches.
