How It Works: Dual-Mode Operation
DC Withstand Voltage Mode: Powered by AC 220V, the unit outputs 0-10kV DC voltage to perform withstand voltage testing on electrical equipment, with leakage and breakdown conditions reflected in real time on the ammeter and voltmeter.
Impulse Discharge Mode: The charging circuit and discharging circuit work together, and the impulse magnet organically combines the DC high-voltage power supply, energy storage capacitor and high-voltage discharge ball gap. The ball gap periodically discharges to inject high-energy impulse signals into the faulty cable, enabling acoustic and magnetic synchronized fault point determination for cables rated 10kV and below.
Complete System: The host applies high-voltage high-energy pulse signals to the cable under test, while the discharge rod performs safe DC current-limiting or short-circuit discharge after testing. A safe and complete cable fault testing workflow from impulse injection to fault pinpointing.
