Cable/Harness Testing Made Easy.

We are often asked questions about high voltage or "hipot" testing for cable assemblies such as: What is the purpose of high voltage? What defects are found? Is it safe for my operators? We have prepared a basic video on High Voltage Testing this month, supported with more detail in "Frequently Asked Questions" about High Voltage Testing on our web page.

If you have any questions or comments, call us at 1-800-441-9910.

   Video - Testing with High Voltage

What mental images do you have about testing cables with high voltages? What images do people on the production floor have when they get failures? If this is a mystery, a simple water metaphor may help you understand hipot testing a little better. We find that it helps many people understand specifically how high voltage tests identify insulation defects. It may help you better understand high voltage testing using Cirris' 1000H+, 1100H+, Touch 1 and CH+ testers. To view the video click here.
