CMC 256plus: 6 Phase Current + 4 Phase Voltage Test Set and Universal Calibrator
The CMC 256plus is the first choice for applications requiring very high accuracy. This unit is not
only an excellent test set for protection devices of all kinds but also a universal calibration tool.
Its high precision allows the calibration of a wide range of measuring devices, including: electricity meters of class 0.2S, measuring transducers, power quality measurement devices and
phasor measurement units (PMU). Its unique accuracy and flexibility make the CMC 256plus
ideal for protection and measurement equipment manufacturers for research and development, production and type testing.
Operation: PC or CMControl

With the unique PermaSync functionality, analog and Sampled Values outputs stay
permanently in sync with the internal CMC time reference.
When a CMC is time-synchronized (IRIG-B, GPS, or PTP), the output quantities are
continuously synchronized to the external time source.
With CMIRIG-B it is also possible to transmit the internal PPS signal of the CMC to the
device under test (e.g. PMUs or IEDs stimulated with a synchronized Sampled Values
data stream).

Testing with GOOSE and Sampled Values functionality requires software
licences for the corresponding configuration modules
For line inputs below 115 VAC, it is not possible to drive all outputs (voltage
output, current output, Aux DC) simultaneously at full load. All other technical
specifications (e.g. the maximum output power of a single amplifier) are not
affected
For an operational temperature above +30 °C (+86 °F) a duty cycle of down to
50 % may apply
