The most important application area of high voltage is the transportation of high voltage electrical energy from distant distances to the power plant. Special high-voltage equipment such as power transformers, cables, capacitors, insulators and the like is needed to carry energy at high voltage. In order to ensure reliable energy distribution, high-voltage devices must also undergo acceptable tests. These tests must be carried out at high impact voltages in accordance with local and foreign test standards. Only traceability is ensured in this way.
In high voltage tests and measurements, voltage and current measurements cannot be performed using conventional measuring devices since the amplitude is very high. In addition, the waveform and time parameters of the high voltage signal have to be controlled, making these measurements even more difficult.
In general, high voltage measuring systems consist of transducers, transmitters and recording devices or equipment. High voltage measurements have recently started in our country. The required features of the measurement systems to be used in high voltage measurements are detailed in IEC 60060-2 standard. All tests and controls on high voltage measurement systems include AC, DC and pulse high voltage measurement systems. The test and inspection organizations record the values obtained at the end of the tests and controls and evaluate the compatibility of the system according to the TS EN 60060-2 standard.
The electromechanical industry sector in our country mainly uses test systems, AC and pulse high voltage production and measurement systems. However, manufacturers with high voltage test laboratories are required to complete their accreditations according to ISO / IEC 17025 standards from TURKAK or a similar institution.
Our company, within the framework of electrical safety examinationsperforms high voltage measurements in accordance with the relevant regulations, standards and test methods published by domestic and foreign organizations. These standards are based on a few standards:
- TS EN 60060-1 High voltage test techniques - Part 1: General description and test rules
- TS EN 60060-2 High voltage test techniques - Part 2: Measuring systems
- TS EN 60060-3 High voltage test techniques - Part 3: Definitions and rules for field tests
