Test for verifying dielectric rigidity of an insulating element

Which is part of some of our products. Thanks to this, we can determine, for example: the test voltage, working voltage, perforation voltage, test for checking the ground leakage, etc…

We check the insulating characteristics of products such as: dielectric carpets, benches, vinyl materials, insulating poles, gloves, etc… All of which are essential products for guaranteeing the worker’s protection during tasks involving electric hazards.

 


 

OUR TEST EQUIPMENT


For performing all of these tests and other specific ones which our clients may requires, as well as for developing new products, we have equipment such as:
 

  • Dielectric rigidity testers
  • High voltage transformer
  • Saline mist chamber
  • Horizontal dynamometer
  • Dynamometric keys
  • Oscilloscopes
  • Equipment for Glow Wire Test
  • Equipment for simulating thermal ageing of connections
  • Resistance Tester for Earthed Equipment
  • Fatigue Tester for Earthed Equipment.
  • As well as specific computer programmes for 3D design for developing new products
    which constantly innovate in the field of electrical and connection-related safety.
