Safety guidelines and warnings
Safety guidelines and warnings
Portable Capacitance Meter
To avoid electric shock, personal injury, or damage to this device and ensure that you
use the meter safely, follow the safety guidelines and warnings listed below:
- The CB-2000 shall only be used by qualified and properly trained personnel, with the level
of competence required for work in connection with high voltage capacitor banks and/or
harmonic filters.
- Avoid working alone.
- Use this device only as specified in this user´s guide.
- Do not use this device if it looks damaged.
- Disconnect the capacitor bank from the grid, wait at least 10 minutes and discharge all
capacitors before measuring.
- Always use the specified battery.
- Inspect the leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Replace damaged leads.
- Follow all regulations and rules stated by international or national safety regulations.
WARNING!
Do not connect the CB-2000 to a capacitor until it is properly discharged. Failure to follow
this warning could result in damage to the device, electric shock, or personal injury.
WARNING!
All work on capacitor banks and/or harmonic filters shall only be conducted when the banks/
filters are disconnected, discharged, grounded and short-circuited. Otherwise consider the
capacitor bank and units as live parts.
ABB Power Capacitors | Portable Capacitance Meter CB-2000 — User´s Guide 5
Safety guidelines and warnings
WARNING!
After disconnection of the capacitor bank, wait at least 10 minutes before grounding and short-
circuiting in order to let the capacitor’s internal discharge resistors discharge the units (normally it
will be less than 75 V, IEC standard). For capacitor banks and capacitor units without discharge
resistors (special applications), discharge instructions must be requested from the supplier.
WARNING!
Ground the capacitor bank or harmonic filter and discharge all units according to supplier
instructions. Failure to follow this warning could result in damage to the device and to the ca-
pacitor banks, electric shock, heat generation, explosion, fire, bodily injury, or death. Please
refer to the Operating Instructions set forth in Section 3.
WARNING!
When working in the vicinity of high voltage, disconnect and ground around the work area. If
work must be carried out next to live plant components, the safety distance must comply with
applicable safety regulations.
WARNING!
When using ladders or platforms, work must be conducted in accordance with applicable
safety regulations. Avoid climbing on ladders and platforms in poor weather conditions.
WARNING!
Carry out a visual inspection to make sure that no tools are left and remove the groundings
(earthings) before energizing the capacitor bank or harmonic filter.
WARNING!
Avoid skin contact in event of leakage of impregnation fluid. Refer to the capacitor safety
instructions. In case of skin contact, wash off immediately with soap and water. Consult a
doctor if skin irritation persists.

Safety guidelines and warnings
Rechargeable battery pack
To avoid personal injury or product damage, refer to Section 6.3 for handling and
charging of the rechargeable battery pack, and follow the safety guidelines and
warnings listed below:
WARNING!
Do not disassemble, modify or destroy the battery. Doing so can cause fluid leakage, heat
generation, or explosion.
WARNING!
Do not use the rechargeable battery pack at a site that can get moist or immersed in water.
Doing so can cause the batter’s terminals to corrode, and/or cause electric shock or fire.
WARNING!
Make sure you connect batteries by their proper polarity. Connecting the battery in the
wrong polarity can cause fire or damage to the charger.
WARNING!
Do not incinerate or apply heat to the battery. Batteries may burst and release hazardous
decomposition products when exposed to fire.
WARNING!
Prolonged exposure to heat may cause the battery to produce hazardous metal fumes of
nickel, cobalt, aluminum and manganese, as well as hydrogen gas, caustic vapors of potas-
sium and sodium hydroxide and other toxic by-products.

Safety guidelines and warnings
First aid measures
General advice
The chemicals and metals in this battery are enclosed in a sealed can. Exposure to the
contents will not occur unless the battery is exposed to high temperatures or mechanical
or electrical abuse. A damaged battery will release concentrated potassium and sodium
hydroxides, which are caustic. Anticipated potential leakage of potassium and sodium
hydroxides is 1-2 grams per cell.
Eye contact
If a battery is leaking and material comes in contact with the eyes, flush thoroughly with
water for 30 minutes. Seek immediate medical attention.
Skin contact
If a battery is leaking and material comes in contact with the skin, remove any contaminated
clothing and flush exposed skin with water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation, injury or pain
persists, seek immediate medical attention.
Inhalation
If a battery is leaking, the contents may irritate respiratory passages. Move to an area with
fresh air. If irritation persists, seek immediate medical attention.
Swallowing
If battery contents are swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. If the victim is alert, have him/
her rinse his/her mouth and the surrounding skin with water for at least 15 minutes. Seek
immediate medical attention.
Note to physician
The acutely toxic ingredients are concentrated (35%) potassium and sodium hydroxides and
nickel. Anticipated potential leakage of potassium and sodium hydroxides is 1-2 grams.

Introduction
10 Portable Capacitance Meter CB-2000 — User´s Guide | ABB Power Capacitors
1. Introduction
1.1 Introduction
The CB-2000 is an advanced measurement unit especially developed for measuring the capacitance
of high power capacitors without making any disconnections within the capacitor bank. The ergonomic
design makes it easy to handle and with the shoulder strap attached, easy to carry. The capacitance
value is clearly displayed on an LCD legible both in daylight and dark environments.
The low voltage (less than 1.4 V) test signal is generated only when a measurement is made, in order to
minimize power consumption. The measurement frequency is automatically adjusted according to the
measured capacitance for best possible results.
To ensure reproducibility, up to five measurements can be stored and shown for each measurement
object. The measurements produced by the CB-2000 are time stamped and the internal temperature at
the time of measurement is stored as well. The data can later be downloaded to a PC for storage and
analysis using the accompanying software.
The CB-2000 is short-circuit proof and has a measuring range of 0-1000 μF.
1.2 Workflow
The handling and operation of the CB-2000 is quick and easy:
1. Prepare the CB-2000 for a measurement session by uploading the last session data or routine test data (optional).
2. After all safety measures have been taken on the capacitor bank, connect the voltage supply and clip-on trans-
former and perform a measurement.
3. Download the measurement data to a PC for analysis and storage (optional).
