White Papers

Explore how intelligent automation is transforming cable and harness testing. This whitepaper examines the limitations of manual validation and explains how automated high-voltage testing, multi-point switching, guided workflows, and digital traceability can improve throughput, repeatability, quality, and compliance while supporting increasingly complex cable assemblies and production requirements.

Learn how galvanic corrosion impacts EMI shielding systems, degrades electrical performance, and reduces product reliability in harsh environments. Discover practical material selection and corrosion-mitigation strategies, plus insights from ASTM B117 salt-fog testing that compare passivation finishes, gasket materials, and metallic components to improve long-term shielding performance and durability.

Accelerate North American market access with this practical guide to NRTL, FCC, ISED, and SCC requirements. Clarify certification pathways, design for compliance early, and avoid costly retesting. Gain actionable insights across safety, EMC, radio, and regulatory alignment to reduce risk and streamline approvals from development through certification.

Discover how energy storage systems (ESS) ensure data center resilience, mitigate risks like thermal runaway, and comply with critical standards. Learn about evaluation processes, benefits for stakeholders, and future trends in energy storage safety and reliability.

This whitepaper demystifies the IEC 60601 family of medical electrical safety standards, explaining general, collateral, and particular requirements and how they impact global market access. It offers practical guidance on integrating compliance, risk management, and testing strategies early to streamline regulatory approval and accelerate time to market.

Learn how electrical safety testing must adapt to Industry 4.0 production environments with automated, high-speed hipot testing. This application note explains how programmable tests, seamless PLC/robot integration, and traceable data capture with Vitrek testers help manufacturers boost throughput, improve quality, and maintain compliance in smart, automated production lines.

Radio modules are transforming how products connect and communicate, but integration brings complex regulatory responsibilities. This whitepaper provides a clear, practical guide to navigating global approvals, testing requirements, and compliance risks, helping manufacturers accelerate development while ensuring their connected products meet the standards needed for successful market entry.

This whitepaper underscores that precise calibration of high-voltage test gear — especially when measuring 1 kV–150 kV systems — is essential for safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance. It details measurement techniques (voltage dividers, step-down transformers, etc.), the impact of environmental and connection factors on accuracy, and why traceable calibration (e.g. to NIST / A2LA) is a must to ensure consistent, reliable results.
