IEC 61850-9-2 Sampled Values
STS 5000 has the facility to test CT, VT, both conven onal and
non conven onal, Merging Unit ( MU ) using the IEC 61850-9-2
(SV ) protocol. The STS 5000 generates current or voltage signal
and injects these quan es into the CT or VT under test.
The STS 5000 then reads the data from the network ( Sample
Values ) in order to perform a variety of diff erent tests.

TDMS - Test & Data Management Software
TDMS, Test & Data Management Software, is a powerful
software package providing data management for acceptance
and maintenance testing activities. Electrical apparatus data
and test results are saved in the TDMS database for historical
results analysis.
The TDMS database organizes test data and results for the
majority of electrical apparatus tested with ISA test sets and
related software.
PADS - Power Apparatus Diagnostic Software
PADS - Power Apparatus Diagnostic Software is a power-
ful software application, included in TDMS software, that
optionally allows the remote control of the STS family: STS 5000,
STS 4000, TDX 5000. The software performs various tasks, such as:
. Control STS and TD remotely from PC
. Create test plan
. Download stored test results via Ethernet cable
. Create and customize test reports
. Print test results
This program runs under Windows© environment.
Note: Windows is trademark of Microsoft Corporation.
The following op onal modules enhance the STS 5000 features.
• The high voltage (HV) generator TD 5000 performs the
measurement of the tan Delta, capacitance and power factor of
any device, at the frequency of the mains or in a wide frequency
range.
• The circuit switch op on STCS performs the automa c mea-
surment of PT’s turn ra o, of winding resistance and also tes ng
the opera on of the Load or no-Load Tap Changer.
• The extremely high current BUX 5000, BUX 3000 and BUX 2000
op ons perform high current tests, with currents up to 7000 A.
• The STLG module allows performing high current grid resistan-
ce and overhead lines tests.
The STS family includes 4 models: STS 5000, STS 4000, STS
3000 light and TDX 5000. STS 4000 is not equipped with:
AC and DC high current outputs.TDX 5000 is not equipped
with: AC and DC high current outputs, AC and DC high and
low voltage outputs, and current and voltage meters. STS
5000 and STS 4000 can be connected to the Tan Delta mo-
dule TD 5000; STS 5000 and 4000 can be also connected to
the very high current module BUX 5000, BUX 3000 and BUX
2000. STS 5000 includes a six-outputs generator: high AC cur-
rent; low AC current; high DC current; low DC current; high AC
voltage; low AC voltage.
In the local control mode, the selected output is adjustable and
metered on the large, graphic LCD display. With the control knob
and the LCD display, it is possible to enter the MENU mode, that
allows to set many func ons, that make STS 5000 a very power-
ful tes ng device, with manual and automa c tes ng capabili-
es, and with the possibility to transfer test results to a PC via
ETHERNET or Pen Drive. The TDMS so ware, which comes with
the test set, allows to download, display and analyse test results
obtained in local mode. Remote maintenance and diagnos c of
the instrument is available via Ethernet. TDMS operates with all
Windows® versions.
The ease of opera on has been the fi rst goal of STS 5000. This is
why the LCD display is so large and the dialogue in MENU mode
is made easy. Connec on diagrams are available accordingly
with the test window. STS 5000 includes three measurement
inputs:
. DC voltage (10 V DC).
. AC voltage:
.. High range (300 V AC) - .. Low range (3 V AC)
. Current (10 A AC or DC).
All these inputs are independent among them and allow the me-
asurement of CT or VT outputs or of another source.
In addi on, a digital input (up to 300 V) is available: it can mea-
sure the ming of a wet or dry contact. The instrument is housed
in a transportable aluminium box, which is provided with remo-
vable cover and handles for ease of transporta on. A transport

TEST PLAN EDITOR is an innova ve and advanced so ware
module allowing the operator to defi ne and plan a sequence
of tests. The operator defi nes the desired sequence of tests
and sets the parameters of each test. TEST PLAN EDITOR
creates a sequence of tests to be performed automa cally. This
feature is available for the test of current, voltage and power
transformers. It is also possibile to create a test sequence for
primary and secondary injec on.
Test plans can be saved or recalled, like test results. Up to 64 set-
ngs can be stored and recalled. Se ngs are permanently sto-
red in the memory and new se ngs can be wri en to the same
address a er confi rma on. During the test, test results can be
stored in the memory. At the end of test, se ngs and test results
can be transmi ed to a PC provided with TDMS. The so ware
allows saving, expor ng and analysing test results.
EXAMPLES OF TEST PLAN EDITOR FOR CT TESTS
Nominal values window: from these nominal data,
the program computes the nominal saturation knee.
Tests header window: test reference data.
Tolerances window allows se ng the tolerances for
each of the available tests.
Test selection window: it allows selec ng the test to
be performed.
At the end of the programming, star ng the fi rst test will
execute the complete sequence. During the test, test results
are stored in the memory. The test set minimizes the test
dura on, in order to avoid over-hea ng the components. The
same feature is available when controlling the test set via PC
by PADS.

waveform, which is injected into the connection cables. The
polarity check is easily performed by connecting it at the relay
site. PLCK hast wo lights: green and red. The green light turns
