Make/Model: Megger MVCT
Product Overview
The Megger MVCT is a portable, robust test set engineered for high-precision testing of current transformers (CTs) up to 30 kV knee point. Despite its lightweight design (<10 kg), it performs a full range of CT diagnostics—saturation, ratio, polarity, phase, winding resistance, and insulation testing—across multiple taps with a single lead configuration. Ideal for modern MV substation environments, it automates complex test sequences for fast and reliable results.
Included Equipment
- MVCT test unit (CT testing enabled)
- Connection leads and grounding accessories
- High-visibility color TFT touch display (or configured without display for remote PC control via PowerDB/STVI)
- PowerDB Lite software for report generation and saturation curve plotting
- Rugged case for field deployment and storage capability (1000+ test records)

Applications
- Field and factory validation of CTs—ratio, knee point, polarity, winding resistance, and insulation metrics.
- Automated testing across multiple taps without lead changes; ideal for multi-ratio CTs.
- Fast commissioning and periodic verification of CT performance in substations.
- Integrated reporting and trend tracking through PowerDB/STVI software.
