(OP)
Can anyone suggest a high amperage(2000 amps max)tester? Used primarily for single phase reclosers, three phase reclosers and sectionalizers? Appreciate your time

I work at a utility in Colombia and we have a tester AVO MULTIAMP OCR-8015-C

From a 120 V source you are correct ~1600A. @ 240V you get the full 2000A from the booster - the currents are time limited and self protected (will shut itself off). For field applications, I've worked with folks that set up 240V in service trucks using 2 UPS units in series - it worked very well.
The CPC will work well with low impedance devices, such as vacuum reclosers, switches, etc. For older hydrolic units, the impedance is too high. It will also test CT's, contact resistance, can do secondary tests on the controller, etc.
To the OP - where do you plan on using the set -in the field or in the shop?
