Greenlee TL-AST-M Description
The Greenlee TL-AST-M (52087335) TILT-II Transformer Tester with Automatic Self-Test and Magnet Mount provides quick and easy tests for opens and shorts on power distribution systems. It operates with a single push-button and provides clear indications of open circuits, short circuits and confirmation that the test results are OK. The TILT II (Transformer Initial Livening Tester) Transformer Tester is a versatile tool for quick and easy checks of transformers and the connections made to them. In the field, the TILT II is used to test the primary and secondary sides of a new or reworked, single or three-phase transformer installation for short circuits prior to energizing. The TILT II can test the secondary sides of transformers and all the connections made to them, up to and including the meter, prior to energizing. Unlike a simple ohmmeter, the TILT II can differentiate a true short from the low instance of a transformer winding.
