About High Voltage

What is High Voltage testing?
Circuits and equipment are generally classified as ‘high voltage’ when they have a nominal voltage exceeding 1000 volts AC or 1500 volts DC. High voltages are generally found in the electrical distribution network where it is common to see systems operating at 11,000 VAC, 33,000 VAC, 132,000 VAC and even 400,000 VAC.

How to carry out High Voltage Testing?
There are many standards and procedures which related to high voltage testing, often these have been created by the generation company or distribution network operator and form the basis for their staff safety training. Earlier we mentioned the process of safe isolation and this basic practice forms the starting point for most high voltage training courses around the world.
