HIGHVOLT managing director Dr. Ralf Bergmann (r) in conversation with a fair visitor

There was seemingly no end to the stream of visitors converging on the HIGHVOLT stand at the Elecrama fair in Bangalore, India, between 8th and 12th January 2014. Cable and transformer manufacturers, in particular, were keen to learn more about HIGHVOLT's experience with equipment for on-site testing. Attention was repeatedly focussed on the HIGHVOLT AC test systems with variable frequency.

They stand out not least by way of their robustness, mobility and a low PD background noise level. “Thanks to the fast and simple test set-up and minimal maintenance requirements, they are a very popular choice for voltage withstand tests on installed cables and transformers, for example,” explained HIGHVOLT engineer Andreas Horeth. “A further decisive benefit for cable testing,” he added, “is the possibility to connect several systems in series or parallel, as a means to test cables up to a hundred kilometres in length.”
