FAQs
The 83C4950G71 VCP-W test kit is designed to integrate with Eaton VCP-W protection systems and requires a suitable space for its 525 lb footprint (footprint roughly 29.32 in x 36.84 in x 27.88 in). Ensure 48 Vdc control interfaces are available and plan for lifting equipment or trained personnel during installation due to the unit’s size. Documentation and factory wiring diagrams support proper setup and safe operation within standard switchgear environments.
Key specifications include nominal current testing at 1200/2000 A and a dc control voltage of 48 V. Catalog number is 83C4950G71 with UPC 786689832162 for procurement traceability. The device is designed as a G&T test solution intended for high-current protective equipment validation, enabling accurate verification of trip and ground functions in Eaton VCP-W configurations.
Yes. The kit targets field commissioning and on-site verification of high-current protection devices, providing a portable, dedicated test setup. Its 1200/2000 A capability and 48 Vdc control interface align with typical Eaton VCP-W installations, helping electricians and engineers rapidly validate system performance while mitigating commissioning risk and downtime in industrial facilities.
Verify the appropriate safety and compliance markings for your application, including CE labeling, relevant SIL safety integrity levels, and IP ratings where exposure to dust or liquids is possible. While the data here provides model details and basic specs, confirm with Eaton documentation and your facility’s safety standards to ensure all regulatory requirements are met for your installation.
Maintenance focuses on routine inspection of power and control interfaces, safe handling of the heavy unit, and ensuring proper calibration alignment with your VCP-W system. ROI improves through reduced commissioning time, fewer field rework events, and accelerated personnel training thanks to included training materials like Circuit Breakers Explained. The kit’s reliability supports ongoing test accuracy and asset protection over the equipment lifecycle.
