VLF Cable Testing
VLF testing applies a 0.1 Hz sinusoidal AC voltage, so the capacitive charging current is a small fraction of what a 50/60 Hz hipot would draw. That lets a portable set withstand-test long, high-capacitance shielded cables โ after laying, on acceptance, and in maintenance โ with a voltage distribution that stays close to service conditions.
66 kV acceptance testing needs a higher VLF test voltage than this range provides โ contact our engineers before selecting a set.
Technical Guide
Test voltages by cable class, test duration and frequency, sine vs cosine-rectangular waveforms, tan-delta interpretation โ and how VLF compares with DC and DAC/OWTS. Built on IEEE 400.2-2024, IEC 60502-2, IEC 60229 and GB/T 3048.8.
