Why Us?

It is important to recognize High Potential Testing as one of the most hazardous procedures for an Acceptance Testing and General Electrical Maintenance testing company. This is precisely the reason why you would want to choose the company with an Experience Modification Rate (EMR) of Zero, with zero down-time lost due to injury.    All of our Field Technicians are rigorously trained in the necessary safety procedures that must be taken (OSHA-10, Arc Flash), in order for the HiPot Testing Method to be effective and approved for field testing, where construction and industrial work environments pose probable cautionary issues.

Industrial Tests offer the following HiPot Testing Methods and Procedures:

Direct Current (DC):

  • Cable
  • Acceptance
  • Installation
  • Maintenance
  • Field
  • Shop

Alternating Current (AC):

  • Capacitive Cancelling
  • Over-Potential
  • Hertz
  • Power Factor

Very Low Frequency (VLF):

  • Does not over strain the equipment under test
  • Deters the ability of space charges developing
  • Allows for continuous polarity fluctuations
  • Allows for much higher AC voltage testing limits (Phase to Ground)

Resonant AC:

  • Low power demand requirement
  • 10:1 test power requirement
  • Very light-weight and mobile

Partial Discharge:

  • Motors and Generators
  • Cables, Terminations, and Splices
  • Transformers and Bushings
  • Switchgear
