3. Running M4000 Tests
There are four test modes available with the M4000 software; all but
Clipboard require optional software:
• Clipboard Mode
This is a generic form for recording and storing test results, nameplate
information, weather conditions, test parameters, and notes, and is
described below. A new graphing function allows test results to be
graphed.
• External Reference/Source Mode (page 3-12)
This test mode enables the user to perform tests using an external
source and reference, extending the range of test voltage above the 12
kV of the M4000 test set.
• Leakage Reactance Mode (page 3-16)
This test mode enables the user to measure transformer leakage
reactance. Auxiliary hardware is required in the form of the M4110
Leakage Reactance Interface, or the M4130 Leakage Reactance
Module.
• DTA Mode (page 3-17)
