The type GA Meter Test Kit/Artificial Load has been designed to reduce the weight of field test equipment to the lowest possible limit. The carrying case is fabricated from durable powder coated aluminum. The total weight of the meter test kit including leads, tool tray and digital standard is approximately 25 lbs. The tool tray incorporates ample storage space for the cable set as well as additional field service tools.

A 120/240/277/480 voltage change switch is provided with an "OFF" position in order that the load can be de-energized without the necessity of breaking connections when it is desired to make adjustments to the meter under test. The various load values are changed by manipulation of a durable rotary switch. The switching steps are so arranged that the full load value is adjacent to its corresponding light load value. Thus all that is necessary to change from full to light load, is to change the switch settings on the load. No connections need to be changed.

The artificial load and standard are permanently connected and the internal connections of the load are such that the movement of the load selector switch automatically places the proper standard coil in the test circuit. As with all TESCO loads, these are rated for continuous duty.
