High Voltage Test Range For Power Industry Applications

The range of high voltage safety testing equipment available includes neon and digital voltage indictors, safe discharge units, neon and digital phasing equipment, insulator leakage detectors and current clamps.

The KDIE high voltage indicators include both neon and digital systems to confirm the presence of voltage on earthed neutral electrical circuits up to 33KV.

These are supported by a range of high voltage phasing rods that enable phase comparisons to be made at the point of paralleling two circuits without the interposition of voltage transformers or secondary wiring circuits. A neon type instrument is available for use on circuits up to 11.5KV and digital versions are available for use on systems up to 15KV and 33KV.

The range of HV Indicators and HV Phasing Units is supported by a hook ammeter for accurately measuring current flow on overhead power lines and a large jaw clamp meter for the measurement of current flow through large conductors.

In addition to the standard range of test equipment, specialist testers are also available for the safe discharge of stored energy in large capacitors and electrically charged equipment.

A dedicated airfield ground lighting voltage detector has also been introduced for proving dead on AGL systems up to 5kV.

All high voltage test and measurement equipment in the Seaward range complies with international safety standards and are manufactured in accordance with IEC 61243.

As well as specialist carrying cases, a range of accessories is also available in support of the main high voltage test instruments. These comprise proving units, battery chargers, overhead line extensions and bend end adaptors for specialist switchgear locations.
