HIGH VOLTAGE INSULATION TESTING

Setting the industry standard for HV testing.

High voltage insulation testing helps identify weaknesses or degradation in cable insulation that could lead to faults or breakdowns, thus preventing electrical hazards or failures in power transmission systems.

The Automeg® tester is commonly used for testing the insulation resistance of high voltage cables. This type of testing is essential for ensuring the integrity and safety of HV electrical systems.

Automeg

Faster inspection times, greater accuracy.

Automeg® streamlines QA for manufacturers by automating the high voltage insulation cable testing testing process to quickly identify issues and enhance efficiency and reliability.

Perfect for manufacturing and maintenance environments, the Automeg reduces turnaround times while maintaining the highest performance standards, making it essential for quality assurance in automotive, aerospace, rail, and beyond.

Case Study

Subsea HV Cable Testing

One of our customers for subsea oil and gas applications uses the Automeg for testing high voltage insulation cables and connectors to determine and verify the safety of their electrical insulation.

The HV testing is being used to verify:

  • Insulation resistance
  • Breakdown voltage
  • Leakage current

The customer is performing tests at 3500V DC underwater to check for arc and insulation failure between the shield and the back shell of the connectors.

Our Automeg system has a safety integration that prevents the person from having direct contact with the harness assembly.
