The HT Instruments COMBI521EV is a portable multifunctional electrical tester that can be used for a variety of electrical measurements, including continuity of the protection cable, insulation resistance (with calculation of PI and DAR), overall earth resistance, RCDs type B, A and AC tripping time and current, line / fault impedance with calculation of prospective short circuit / fault current, phase sequence and conformity.

The COMBI521EV is a device that not only allows you to measure environmental parameters like illuminance and temperature, but also leakage current and electric quantities such as voltage, current, power factor, power and harmonics on single-phase systems.

The COMBI521EV provides an innovative AUTO function that allows for easy testing of overall earth resistance, RCD tripping time, and insulation resistance. Simply set the value of RCD current and select the AUTO function to start the test. The device will automatically carry out the tests in sequence, and display all results at the end with simple OK or NOT OK symbols. This makes it easy to determine compliance with standards.

Thanks to its internal memory that allows saving the measures and subsequently transfer them onto the PC through the optical/USB connection. The brand new HTAnalysis App, downloadable for free on iOS and Android systems, enhances COMBI521EV’s capabilities by transferring measured and recorded data onto tablets and smartphones; this way, the operator can customize and share the results of their tests on HTCloud. COMBI521EV is a valuable ally for every technician thanks to its precision, convenience and wide range of applications.

The HT Instruments MACROEVTEST enables the verification and control of electric vehicle charging stations (EVSE) in accordance with the IEC / EN 61851-1 and IEC / EN60364-7-722 standards, and for safety tests in environments civil and industrial CEI 64.8.

CHECKS ON RECHARGING STATIONS FOR ELECTRIC CARS MACROEVTEST + EV-TEST100

Connection is simple. The MacroEVtest is connected through the provided C100EV cable to EV-Test100, which is connected, through an in-built cable provided with type2 plug, to a recharging station.

SIMPLIFIES

EV-Test100 can simulate the presence of a car being recharged and, at the same time, communicates with MacroEVtest thanks to the new display with touch screen system fitted to HT’s latest generation instruments.

SIMULATES

To correctly perform all tests, all you need to do is following the GUIDED PROCEDURE created by HT for this innovative instrument.

GUIDES YOU

Before each test, MacroEVtest indicates how the cables must be connected and at the end of the measurement provides evaluations of the test results and indicates the recharging station’s safety status by a green or red thumb symbol.

Measurement functions

• Universal 4mm sockets for connection to a 1- or 3-phase installation tester using test leads (banana plugs)
• Separate phase display with three LEDs for easy voltage checking
• Proximity Pilot (PP) rotary switch for simulating different current carrying capacities of charging cables
• Control Pilot (CP) rotary switch for simulating the electrical vehicle status A, B, C D
• Rotary switch error to simulate a short circuit between CP and PE (state E = error)
• Simulation of PE fault (ground fault)
• Connection for the CP signal output to check communication between the adapter (= simulated electric vehicle) and the charging station
• Type 2 plug for connection to the charging station even with a permanently connected charging cable
• Vehicle simulation (CP): The various vehicle states A to D can be simulated using a rotary switch (according to IEC 61851)
• Cable simulation (PP): The various codings for charging cables with 13, 20, 32 and 63 A as well as “no cable connected” can be simulated using a rotary switch
• Error simulation: Simulation of a short circuit between CP and PE using a rotary switch (state E = error)
• Display of phase voltages via LEDs
• Testing of e-charging stations even with a permanent
• connected charging cable
• For vehicle simulation (CP):

According to IEC 61851, the states A, B, C, D and E can be simulated. The various vehicle states are set using the rotary switch.
