The TE Connectivity PC-DS-VL 1SNA166758R1500 is a professional ESSAILEC voltage transformer test socket with short-circuited contacts, designed for measurement, testing and protection circuits in industrial electrical installations. Part of the established TE Connectivity ENTRELEC ESSAILEC range, it provides a dedicated interface for connecting test equipment while helping simplify commissioning, maintenance and diagnostic work.
The PC-DS-VL is a base / half-base mounting socket using reliable screw-clamp connections. Its blue coding identifies the short-circuited-contact configuration within the ESSAILEC voltage transformer range, helping technicians distinguish the appropriate test interface in complex metering and protection installations.
Designed around the ESSAILEC voltage transformer platform, the PC-DS-VL supports circuits rated up to 8 A and features a 25 A for 5 s short-circuit current capability. The system provides IP20 protection without a lid and IP40 with the compatible lid fitted, while the PC-DS-VL has an approximate product weight of 130 g.
ESSAILEC test blocks provide dedicated interfaces between voltage transformer secondary circuits and electrical measurement, metering and protection equipment. By providing an accessible test connection, they help technicians perform commissioning, diagnostic and maintenance procedures while reducing the need to disconnect permanent field wiring.
The PC-DS-VL combines a short-circuited contact arrangement with screw-clamp wiring and base or half-base mounting. Compatible ESSAILEC lids and pre-wired plugs extend the system into a coordinated testing solution for switchboards, substations, protection panels and industrial power-distribution equipment.
