FAQ's of Metravi 1811 ELCB Tester:
Q: How do you use the Metravi 1811 ELCB Tester to check an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker?
A: To test an ELCB, plug the Metravi 1811 tester into the circuit under inspection, then select the appropriate test current. Press the test button to initiate the process-the LED indicators will show the status and indicate if the breaker trips. The trip time is measured automatically and should be verified against standard safety requirements.
Q: What is the main benefit of using the Metravi 1811 for ELCB testing?
A: The key advantage lies in its ability to provide fast and accurate trip time measurements, allowing users to assess breaker performance with precision. Its portability, clear LED indicators, and overload protection ensure both effective testing and enhanced safety during on-site inspections.
Q: When should the Metravi 1811 ELCB Tester be used?
A: Use this tester during installation, commissioning, or scheduled maintenance of ELCB, RCCB, or RCBO devices to verify they operate correctly within their specified leakage current range (10mA to 500mA). Regular use helps prevent unwanted electrical hazards by ensuring circuit breakers are functioning optimally.
Q: Where is the Metravi 1811 typically applied?
A: This tester is primarily used on-site in residential, commercial, and industrial electrical installations in India, where AC 220V/240V, 50Hz systems are standard. It is suitable for single-phase equipment and meets the safety requirements of CAT II 300V environments.
Q: What process does the tester follow to determine ELCB trip times?
A: After connecting to the circuit and pressing the test button, the tester introduces the selected leakage current. The internal timer records the time until the circuit breaker trips-this period is displayed via LED indication, assisting in the accurate assessment of breaker efficiency.
Q: How does the tester enhance safety during inspection?
A: By providing accurate trip time measurements and immediate LED status feedback, the tester helps identify potential issues such as non-responsive or slow circuit breakers. Overload protection and polarity check also contribute to safer maintenance procedures.
