The portable, high accuracy test sets of the STS family allow performing all tests foreseen by international Standards on
CTs, measurement VTs, Power Transformers, and to measure the Tan(δ), dissipation factor and capacitance of any
device. With the option STLG + STSG it is also possible to execute the Earth resistance and Step and Touch voltage
measurements.
The following table lists the models of the STS Family:
Model
Description
STS 5000
It is the most performing test set of the STS family of devices. It allows executing all
listed tests
STS 4000
It is the same as STS 5000, unless the high AC and DC current generators. High AC
current tests can be performed using the BUX 3000 option; micro-Ohm metering is
not available
STS 3000 light
It allows performing Tan(δ) tests with the option TD 5000

Keyboard, dedicated keys, control knob and display can control all test sets of the family locally. Test results and settings
can be saved in a PC by the software suite TDMS, which comes with the device. The optional PADS program allows also
controlling the device from the PC.

BUX is the BUX 3000, BUX 2000 option, for high current injection tests. The Ratio test for Not-Conventional transformer
with the option IEC61850-9-2LE is available only in remote control mode, using the PADS software.
