Description
The EGIL is an automatic timer and motion analyzer for medium- and high-voltage substation circuit breakers. It is intended for use on circuit breakers with one contact per phase. EGIL incorporates features commonly found on more complex test systems, but is designed to be smaller, simpler to use and less expensive than other similar test sets. It’s price makes it attractive to smaller utilities and it is an ideal supplementary product for maintenance departments at larger power companies and for testing contractors.
 

Applications
Since the time channels do not have galvanic separation, the EGIL can only test single breakdown per phase applications.

Besides the actual measurement values, several parameters according to IEC standards are calculated and shown in the report, e.g. closing and opening time, comparison between phases, over-travel, Close/Open and Open/Close time.
