Electrical Safety Testing

This white paper explores the evolution and critical role of advanced hipot testers in ensuring product safety. It details how modern testers perform dielectric withstand, insulation resistance, and ground bond tests, complying with global standards like IEC and UL. The paper emphasizes the necessity of reliable, accurate testing in manufacturing and certification processes.

Verification of electrical safety testing equipment is a procedure that is often overlooked by manufacturers. Running test verification is crucial to ensuring that a safety device will properly detect product failures. While the task of setting up a test verification can seem daunting, it’s a simple matter of having the necessary equipment and procedures in place so that the process is easy to follow.
