Red Phase 1.5kVA Earth Current Injection Set. Hire from Megavar for substation earthing system testing and earth grid commissioning across Australia.
Description
The Red Phase 4024B + 4023 system is a compact, portable earth current injection test set designed for verifying the performance of substation earth grids, neutral earthing systems, and protection relays under controlled fault conditions. Capable of delivering up to 1.5 kVA of output power at variable current and voltage, the set consists of a variable power unit (4023) and a high-current injection transformer (4024B). Together, they enable primary current injection through earth electrodes, ground mats, or structural steel to test current distribution and validate system integrity. The equipment is rugged, field-proven, and widely used by utilities and commissioning engineers.

• Delivers up to 1.5 kVA injection power
• Injection current typically up to 25 A at low voltage (depending on load)
• Consists of 4023 (control unit) and 4024B (injection transformer)
• Suitable for earth grid integrity checks, fault path verification, and relay testing
• True RMS metering of voltage and current
• Smooth manual voltage control with overload protection
• Output tap selection for optimised injection based on site conditions
• Compact and rugged design for field use
• Supplied with heavy-duty test leads and transport case

Calibration

All Megavar test equipment is maintained under a documented calibration programme. Instruments are calibrated either by external calibration laboratories or in-house against reference standards that are themselves laboratory-calibrated, with measurement traceable to Australian national measurement standards held by the National Measurement Institute. A current calibration certificate is available on request. If your project requires a specific calibration interval, test standard, or documentation for a client submission, tell us at enquiry on 1300 730 499 and we will confirm what applies before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Red Phase 1.5 kVA Earth Current Injection Set (4024B + 4023)

What is this test set used for?

It’s designed for earth injection testing, which involves injecting current into an earthing system and measuring the response to assess grid integrity and simulate fault conditions for protection testing.

Yes. The unit can simulate earth fault conditions, making it suitable for testing earth fault relays, residual current relays, and verifying pickup thresholds.

It can inject up to 25 A, depending on output voltage and site load impedance. It’s designed for low-impedance, high-current injection typical of substation grounding systems.

• The 4023 is the control unit, allowing voltage adjustment, metering, and overload protection
• The 4024B is the injection transformer, stepping down the voltage to provide high current output

Yes. Both units are compact, ruggedised, and supplied in a transportable configuration suitable for field deployment in substations and switchyards.

• Substation earth grid continuity and impedance checks
• Verification of fault current paths
• Relay pickup point testing
• Current distribution across earth electrodes or structures

• 4023 control unit and 4024B injection transformer
• Power and interconnect cables
• Heavy-duty output leads and clamps
• Operation manual and transport case

Yes. We offer remote support and test connection guidance, particularly helpful for earth injection setups which vary by site.

Standard minimum rental is 3 days, with weekly and monthly hire options available.

Yes. We provide nationwide delivery and collection, or you can arrange your own freight.
