HV Diagnostics HVA34 High Voltage Test System

The HV Diagnostics HVA34 High Voltage Test System accommodates testing requirements for 25 kV rated cabling, as per the IEEE400.2 testing standard revisions. The test set is suitable for testing capacitors, switchgear, transformers, insulators, bushings and rotating machines (IEEE 433). It is available to rent from TechRentals.

This single-piece system, weighing less than 20 kg, includes: ±34 kV DC hipot; 24 kV/34 kV (RMS/peak) AC Very Low Frequency (VLF) hipot; fault conditioning mode; sheath testing mode; and vacuum bottle testing mode.

VLF is preferable to traditional DC proof testing for applications involving rotating machines and medium-voltage (MV) solid dielectric cables, such as XLPE and EPR. The product can output a symmetrical, load independent, sinusoidal output waveform across the full load range. The unit also features automatic or manual cable test sequences complying with IEEE 400.2, VDE 0276, CENELEC, HD620 S1, NEN 3620, SANS 10198 and IEC 60060-3.

Other features include: large output load capability (up to 12 µF); short circuit protected; downloadable to PC or USB; and internal storage of test reports.

A set up and download service for this product is also offered.
