TE30 is an universal device and can be used as a:
Three-Phase Power Network Analyzer
TE30 Analyzer is used to measure and refresh all power network parameters in real time. Data can be displayed in four different ways: table, vectors diagram, oscilloscope diagram and harmonics in bar and table format.
Table Display function is used for indicating all relevant parameters of three phase power network. The actual value of parameter helps to analyse circuit condition like: voltage missing, current missing, current reversal, asymmetry, etc.
Vectors Display function is used for verification of power network wiring and meter connection. Three orientation of vectors can be chosen.
Additionally the voltage unbalance (voltage asymmetry), phase sequence, neutral voltage and neutral current is calculated.
Oscilloscope Display function is used for displaying the waveform of voltage and current change in time. Six parameters and 1, 2 or 4 periods can be displayed at the same time (picture presents an example waveform of 1-phase Switching Power Supply input voltage and current).
Harmonic Measurement function is used for measuring amplitude and phase of harmonic in voltage, current, active power and reactive power up to 63rd harmonic. The measured harmonic can be displayed in tabular and bar format. Total harmonic distortion THD, total distortion factor TDF, crest factor CF, total interharmonic distortion TID will be displayed as additional information about a form of analysed voltage and current.
Energy Meter Tester
TE30 Tester offers automatic and easy to use function for energy meter testing. TE30 can be used to test error, test register and Pmax test directly on site with used load. All functions can measure energy for active, reactive and apparent power P, P+, P-, Q, Q+, Q-, S and energy for the first harmonic of active and reactive power PH1, PH1+, PH1-, QH1, QH1+, QH1-.
Meter error calculating (partial errors, average error, standard deviation) directly in [%] with:
– method of settings time of measurements or number of impulses,
– automatic identification meter constant,
– automatic determining measurement time or number of pulses.
Register testing for calculating of register error directly in percentage. Three registers can be verified at the same time and any combination of measured power can be chosen.
Maximum power measuring for testing of maximum power (demand) meters.
Measurement data can be visualized in form of trend chart or table and are easy to save, read in the future and print.
Instrument Transformer Tester
TE30 Tester can be used for automatic testing instrument transformers like LV and MV current CT and potential PT (VT) directly on site.

Calculating of phase shift of load is enabled.
For easiest measurements, data from calculation of wiring and fuse resistance can be included into burden error.
CT Ratio Test function is used for calculating of current transformer CT ratio and phase shift error directly in percentage simultaneously in three phases.
PT Ratio Test function is used for calculating of potential transformer PT ratio and phase shift error directly in percentage simultaneously in three phases.

1. What will be the 1mA current measurement accuracy of direct current inputs?
The accuracy of the TE30 (class 0.05%) is defined as 0.05% of measurement value in range 10mA…12A and 0.05% of lower range (10mA) for values below 10mA.
It gives: 0.05%*10mA=0.005mA. For 1mA the relative error is: (0.005mA/1mA)*100%=0.5%. So the 1mA is measured with 0.5% of accuracy for TE30 class 0.05%.
2. I often test energy meters on very distorted power network. It is possible to find the source of the distortions?
Yes, it is easy by the unique function of power (P,Q) harmonic measurements.
The sign at the bars of power in spectrum diagram shows source of the distortion.
For the active power harmonics (P): if plus (+) then distortion goes from network to load; if minus (-) then distortion goes from load to network.
See the pictures below. Oscilloscope shows that U and I are highly distorted but only harmonics of power P with many long minus bars means that distortion goes from this customer to power network.
3. Can I use TE30 to test the ratio of MV (15kV) current transformer?
Yes, you can use special High Voltage current clamps up to 2000A at 40kV called AmpLiteWire, connected to the primary side of CT. The secondary side of CT can be connected directly to the TE30 current inputs or by precision 100A clamps to avoid breaking of the secondary current circuit. As the result you will get the ratio and phase shift error of the MV CT.
4. Error test of three-phase energy meter goes 33%. What is wrong?
Approximately 33% or 66% meter error test result means that there is a wiring problem.
At first make sure that TE30 voltage and current inputs are connected correctly to network/meter. Then use a Vector Graph measurements to find the problem. Probably one phase in your meter is disconnected/shorted or rotated.
Typical Vector Diagram shows picture below.
5. What should be done to use the REC functionality (network parameters recording) of the TE30 tester?
To use the REC functionality, user need to purchase a license key that extends the TE30 functionality with the REC function, enabling the measurement, registration and analysis of power quality parameters. The license key generated remotely by the manufacturer and can be uploaded by the user at any time after purchasing the device or by manufacturer when purchasing the TE30. Recorded parameters can be selected individually or automatically in accordance with the requirements of EN 50160.
6. What are the main differences between the TE30 and the TE30 Lite?
The TE30 Portable Three-Phase Workiing Standard and Power Quality Analyzer is manufactured in the 0.1% or 0.05% class, while TE30 Lite Portable Three-Phase Working Standard and Power Quality Analyzer is available in the 0.2% class.
The TE30 Portable Three-Phase Working Standard and Power Quality Analyzer enables direct current measurement up to 12A, while TE30 Lite enables current measurement up to 3000A with clamps only (depending on the selected optional measuring clamps).
