Smart Solution for Signal Amplification in Test Systems with Digital Simulators

Conprove offers an efficient solution for amplifying signals from real-time simulators.
Using the CE-LVA1 (Low Level Analog Adapter), Conprove’s test sets can be used as analog signal amplifiers for simulators such as RTDS®, OPAL-RT®, or Typhoon Hil®.

Typical Applications

The CE-LVA1 is used to couple analog signals from real-time simulators to Conprove test equipment, enabling accurate and safe amplification of these signals for:

• Real-time testing of protection relays
• Dynamic behavior studies of IEDs (Intelligent Electronic Devices)
• Performance evaluation in simulated power networks
• This system is widely used in laboratories, research centers, and academic institutions, and is compatible with models CE-6707, CE-6710, and CE-7012.

Main Technical Features

• Wide Connectivity: 4.0mm banana-type inputs and front 2EDGK connectors
• Fixed Amplification Gain:
  • Voltage: 55 V / 1 V
  • Current: 5.667 A / 1 V (CE-6707 / CE-6710) or 8.5 A / 1 V (CE-7012)

Integration Example with RTDS Simulator
In a practical scenario, the CONPROVE equipment receives analog signals from the simulator, amplifies them according to the test set’s gain, and injects them directly into the relay under test. This configuration enables testing with high realism and accuracy.

Benefits of Using CE-LVA1 with Conprove Test Sets

• Direct integration with real-time digital simulators
• High fidelity in signal amplification
• Enhanced safety and control in testing
