Sonel MZC-306R Fault Loop Impedance Meter

Owing to a wide range of operating voltages, the professional meter Sonel MZC-306 enables measurements in various types of networks. The device is invaluable for a variety of electrical work in low-voltage areas, such as homes and buildings, public facilities, small workshops and small factories.

The resolution of the measurement result is 0.01 Ω - also when performing measurements in networks protected by RCD circuit breakers. The casing of the MZC-306 meter is made in IP54 protection degree, which ensures its resistance to mechanical damage. The cover of the device can be set in several positions, which enables easy and comfortable transport and use of the device.

Application

This instrument is irreplaceable for all kind of electrical works, especially in situations where there is a need to check the circuits under voltage of 400/690 V. The meter is used for tests in homes, apartment blocks, public buildings, small workshops or factories, wind farms, and even Network Rail.

The meter is a perfect tool for testing systems, where fault currents may reach 5.3 kA (measured according to EN 61557).

The Sonel MZC-306R is a Network Rail variant, with fully PADS approved on certificate PA05/07453A. 

To be used on Signalling Power Feeders.
