DC Hipot Testing is an important electrical test method, which is mainly used to verify the stability and reliability of high-voltage insulation or insulation systems. In this test, a high DC voltage is applied to the insulated conductor for a specified time, and it is seen whether insulation breakdown or leakage current occurs. This test is generally used to evaluate the insulation condition of substations, cables, transformers, and other electrical components.
Through DC Hipot testing, damage or weakness in the insulation can be detected, which reduces the risk of dangerous electrical faults in the future. Proper safety measures must be taken while performing this test, as high voltage can cause fatal accidents. DC Hipot testing is considered an essential part of modern electrical maintenance operations. It helps to maintain the smooth and safe operation of the power supply system by ensuring the performance of the insulation.
