We would like to inform you that the following devices manufactured by SKB EP, LLC are in operation at Sakhalin RHPP: PKV/M7, MIKO-2.3, PKR-2.

The devices have proven themselves to be a good side in terms of operation. Their use allows you to significantly save time for diagnostics of electrical equipment and improve the quality of repairs. The devices are distinguished by ease of operation, compact design, good build quality and high accuracy.

We are grateful to SKB EP, LLC for the manufacture of high-quality diagnostic devices and for the interest that was shown to the experience of use of their devices. We also hope for the manufacture of new developments that will interest the specialists of electrical laboratories of power enterprises.

In August 2019, our company purchased MIKO-7 milliohmmeter for the needs of the electrotechnical laboratory. This device was purchased to replace the DC bridge R333.

During the use, the device has proven itself on the positive side.

The main advantage that was noted when working with MIKO-7 is the high measurement speed that significantly reduced the time required to check the resistance of the transformer windings.

I would also like to mention the strong robust and shockproof case of MIKO-7 that allows you to transport the device without fear of damaging it.

The only inconvenience is the lack of a built-in battery for the possibility of autonomous operation. As far as we know, this flaw is taken into account and corrected in the new modification of the device MIKO-7M(A).

[Manufacturer note]: You are absolutely right. Modified milliohmmeter MIKO-7M(A) is equipped with a built-in battery. You can learn more about its characteristics on the corresponding page of our website.

During the entire operation of the device, there were no failures in its operation.

We look forward to further cooperation and recommend SKB EP as a reliable and competent partner.

Since 2017, we have been measuring resistance of the main circuits of high-voltage column and tank circuit breakers with the help of MIKO-21 microohmmeter.

Advantages of the device: intuitive and easy-to-use interface, touch-screen color display, small dimensions and weight, a wide range of manually set values of the test current, the ability to transfer measurement results to the computer. MIKO-21 works both from the 230V network and from the built-in power supply. The complete set of the device assumes the possibility of choosing different test cable options.

During the operation, there were no failures or malfunctions in the operation of the microohmmeter.

The service of isolation, overvoltage protection and measurements of Central Power Networks of Yakutskenergo, PJSC currently uses 4 measurement devices manufactured by SKB EP, LLC:

• MIKO-1 - 3 pcs.;
• MIKO-9A - 1 pc.

MIKO-1 device has been actively operated since 2012 to measure contact resistance of high-voltage circuit breakers, disconnectors, separators, and other electrical equipment of switchgears. The device is easy to use, has a small weight and dimensions. Due to the reliable contact and cable connections measurement accuracy of the data obtained is high. Furthermore, the device is equipped with a convenient bag. During operation, the device has proven itself as a simple, unpretentious to use, but quite an accurate device.

MIKO-9A device has proven itself perfectly (it has been in operation since 2019) when working on measuring DC resistance of power and measurement transformers. Among the main advantages of the device, we would like to point out the following:

• Possibility of simultaneous measurement by 3 phases;
• Reliable contact and cable connections;
• High accuracy and speed of the measurements;
• The ability to compare the data obtained with the factory data directly during the measurement process;
• Large battery capacity, choice of operation from mains or battery;
• Compactness, light weight, easy-to-use interface.

Devices manufactured by SKB EP, LLC have definitely proven themselves on the positive side, no malfunctions were found in their work. These devices can be recommended to the enterprises engaged in the repair, operation and diagnostics of high-voltage equipment.

I would like to inform you that in the branch of FGC UES, PJSC - Kuban CMEN uses MIKO-1, MIKO-2.3, MIKO-10, and MIKO-21 microohmmeters.

During the operation, MIKO-group devices have proven themselves to be the best in terms of reliability, ease of use and accuracy of the results obtained on the state of the switching equipment (circuit breakers, disconnectors). The devices are also good at resistance measurement of pressed connections, resistance measurement of transformer windings. The devices are easy to transport (there is a special carrying bag), they are convenient to use due to the small size and built-in power supply.

Among the disadvantages there is the lack of crocodile clips (or clamps) in the standard complete set for connecting to a large-section busbar (rigid busbar, hollow wires).

[Manufacturer note]: Device complete set includes those cables that are most often used on various types of objects. Cables that help to measure resistance on large-section busbars are unfortunately used not as often, so they are included to the additional complete set of the devices and are available by request.

Devices manufactured by SKB EP, LLC gave a good account of themselves and can be recommended to the companies performing adjustment or repair works, testings and measurements.
