KAM SPECIFICATION
The test system KAM is a high current unit consisting of a
control unit and one or two external power transformers, that
can be easily taken in proximity of bus-bars, thus keeping to
the minimum the test cable length.
KAM range comprises four models:
. KAM 2/5;
. KAM 5/12.5;
. KAM 5/12.5G;
. KAM 10/25.
Current range or voltage output selection: by means of a fiveposition I/V selector switch: 500A 1000A 2000A 6000A
V (750 1500 3000 - 6000 V for the G model).
Current and power range selection.
Coarse and fine output adjustment.
Current metering: by 4 and half digit instrument, with hold
function.
Adjustable voltage output characteristics:
. Range: 0 to 270 V AC;
. Current output: 0 to 15 A.
Timer
Metering: from current injection to contact tripping (relay tests)
or current injection duration (circuit breaker tests); switch
selection.
Timer range: 999.99 s or 99.999 s; switch selectable. Accuracy:
0.01% 1 digit.
Display on 5 digits, and with built-in 10 MHz quartz oscillator
Input contacts dry or wet.
Voltage range: 24 V to 220 V, DC or AC.
Power supply
Power supply: 230 V 15%; 50/60 Hz.
Protections
Magneto-thermal circuit breaker on the mains supply.
Fuses on DC supplies.
Alarm light and buzzer if the output current exceeds 120% of
the selected range.
Current cannot be injected if the transformer is not connected.
Thermal protection on the power transformers, with alarm light.
Impulse current cut-off is not reset at power down.
Fuse protection on the auxiliary voltage output: T5.
The adjustable, not isolated voltage, is not available unless with

V selection.
Case
Control unit: aluminium case with cover and handles.
Power transfomers: aluminium case with handles and wheels.

Accessories supplied with the unit

Each KAM unit is supplied complete with the following accessories:
. Interconnection cables between the control box and the transformers, 2 m long.
. Mains cable.
. Cable to the trip contact, 2 m long.
. Operating manual.
Cables for connection to the load are not provided as standard
accessories.
OPTIONAL CONNECTION CABLES

The following connection cables are available upon request:
1. Code 15085. Set made of 4 cables, 200 sq. mm. cross
section, length 0.5 m, terminated with ring terminals on
both sides, and complete with 2 screw-driven clamps to
lock the cable to the bar. Cables are to be used in parallel,
in order to reach 400 sq. mm in all, and allow reaching 6000
A peak on all types of test sets.
section, length 1 m, terminated with ring terminals on both

sides, and complete with 2 screw-driven clamps to lock the

cable to the bar. Cables are to be used in parallel, in order
to reach 400 sq. mm in all, and allow reaching 6000 A peak
KAM-5/12.5, and 2000 A on KAM-2/5.
section, length 2.5 m, terminated with ring terminals on
both sides, and complete with 2 screw-driven clamps to
lock the cable to the bar. Cables are to be used in parallel,
in order to reach 400 sq. mm in all, and allow reaching 6000
A peak on KAM-10/25, and 2000 A on KAM-5/12.5. With
series connection, you get 5 m, and you can reach 2000 A
on KAM 10/25.
section, length 5 m, terminated with ring terminals on both
sides, and complete with 2 screw-driven clamps to lock the
cable to the bar. Cables can be connected in parallel, in
order to reach 400 sq. mm in all, they allow reaching 2000
A on KAM-10/25. If connected in series, you have 10 m, and
you can reach 1000 A on KAM-5/12.5.
5. Code 19085. In addition to the above cables, we can
provide a cable set made of three cables, each of which, in
its turn, is made of four pairs of 25 sq. mm twisted pairs:
this arrangement reduces the reactive component of the
cable impedance, and is designed to reach 2000 A on KAM
5/12.5 at the distance of 6 m. The set is complete with 2
screw-driven clamps to lock the cable to the bar. Cables can
be connected in series or in parallel, according to the desired test current and the distance to the target. The weight
of each cable is 15 kg, so that the set is 45 kg: this is to
be considered, if cables cannot be lifted and screwed to the
clamp separately.
All the above cables are provided with two high current
screw-driven clamps for the connection to bars, having the
following characteristics:
- Material: aluminium.
- Opening range: from 5 to 60 mm.
- Short-circuit current rating: 41 kA / 1 s.
- Applicable standard: EN 61230.
- Hole to lift the clamp on the conductor, and ring to screw
it up.

which, in its turn, is made of four pairs of 25 sq.mm twisted
pairs: this arrangement reduces the reactive component of
the cable impedance, and is designed to reach 3000 A on
KAM 5/12.5G at the distance of 1,8 m. The set is complete
with 2 screwdriven clamps to lock the cable to the bar.
Cables can be connected in series or in parallel, according
to the desired test current and the distance to the target.
