Introduction

Omicron Electronics is the global leader in protection testing and substation diagnostics, and their equipment is the preferred choice of commissioning engineers on Australia’s major network projects. Megavar maintains one of the largest Omicron rental fleets in the country, with multiple units of key instruments like the CMC 356 and CPC 100 to ensure availability for your project timeline.

All Omicron equipment is supplied fully calibrated, with current certificates, test leads, accessories, and pre-loaded software licences (Test Universe, PTM, etc.). Our commissioning engineers provide pre-hire equipment briefings and remote technical support throughout your hire period.

Why Hire Omicron Equipment from Megavar?

Megavar’s commissioning engineers are some of the most experienced Omicron users in Australia, deploying CMC 356, CPC 100, and CIBANO 500 units on live transmission and distribution projects every week. This means we can provide genuine technical support — not just equipment — including advice on test plans, software configuration, accessory selection, and result interpretation. Our fleet is maintained to the highest standards with regular calibration and thorough pre-dispatch checks. We carry multiple units of high-demand instruments to maximise availability.
