Electrical insulation begins to age and thus deteriorate as soon as it is made. Exposure to harsh environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures, mechanical damage, and chemical vapors, ...
Among the various diagnostic methods used to assess transformer condition, capacitance and Tan Delta testing has gained broad ...
In our previous issue, we described time-resistance and dielectric absorption ratio tests. Two other useful insulation resistance tests are the short time and step voltage tests In our previous issue, ...
The Megger MIT200 series of 250-V, 500-V and 1000-V insulation and continuity testers perform insulation testing to 1000 MΩ Continuity testing can be done at 200 mA down to 0.01 Ω. The testers include ...
The street scene shows damage caused by an explosion in a manhole as a result of gases generated by a low-voltage arcing fault. North America, according to statistics published by the IEEE Insulated ...
