Relay Secondary Injection Unit
Relay Secondary Injection Unit
(OP)
Hi all,
I am trying to buy a protection relay injection unit for the company I am working for.
I have worked with quite a number of them so far, but there are so many features on the equipment that make decision a bit difficult. I have narrowed my choices down to OMICRON and DOBLE.
Would you guys have any experience with any aof these two and which one do you recommend?
Regards,
Dean

RE: Relay Secondary Injection Unit
The Test Universe software has all the modules you need to test different relays.
Can't give you a comparison with DOBLE as the DOBLE's I have used are very old.

Where are you based?
A European manufacturer who has a good reputation and long history is Programma. Their units have some wierd-sounding names, being of Scandinavian origin (sorry Skogsgurra...), but the equipment is robust and the performance is good.
Worth a look before you commit any large expenditure.

I am based in Western Australia. I know Programma is a good unit, but our company has used OMICRON extensively. Now Doble seems to have come close to OMICRON and they are a bit better in price. Personally speaking, I don't have a good experience with Doble, but the new model F6510 seems to be a breakthrough. We are mainly concerend with our high-burden relays, which OMICRON can not do without use of an amplifier unit.
Doble claims that their new product can test any relay. I want to know to what extent this is true.

By far Omicron has become defacto standard for secondary injection test kits.It's only limitation,of not being able to use without a laptop computer,I believe can now be overcomed by use of a PDA (Palm top terminal)
RE: Relay Secondary Injection Unit
Get Doble to loan you an F6150 for a week minimum and try it out—give them the burden of proof. Jodie and Lou need to be kept on their toes—it's a competitive world out there. Rumours are they’ll be offering a 12-channel box.
RE: Relay Secondary Injection Unit
Omicron and Doble are very expensive. You might want to look at ETAP ARTTS which is a secondary injection test set I have used and works real well because it allows upto 9 CT inputs and interfaces with the ETAP coordination program. The best thing is service is available in the US.
If you want functionality at a cheaper price (almost half) then check it out. I am sure you can get detailed specs from etap.
