Megger Magnus Step Up Transformer

Allowing you to prepare excitation curves for instrument transformers quickly and easily, the Megger Magnus Step Up Transformer is ideal for checking instrument transformers to make sure they’re providing test instruments and protective relay equipment with the correct outputs.

The Magnus can also be used to demagnetise current transformer cores and conduct turn-ratio tests on voltage transformers, making it a versatile instrument.

Despite only weighing 16 kg (35 lbs), Megger Magnus is capable of providing 1 A at 2.2 kV (model dependent), as well as boasting two-handed control for enhanced personal safety.

Delivered complete with a special high-voltage cable and a robust transport case as standard, the Magnus is the perfect tool for transformer testing.
