Kilovolt KPG 54kV - VLF Test Set
The Kilovolt KPG 54kV is a portable, high-voltage test system designed specifically for insulation testing of medium-voltage power cables using very low frequency (VLF) sinusoidal output. It is an essential tool for commissioning, diagnostics, and preventive maintenance of XLPE and PILC cables, helping to identify insulation defects and deterioration accurately in the field.
Features & Benefits
- Output voltage up to 54 kV peak ensuring effective testing of cables up to approximately 33 kV class.
- Stable 0.1 Hz very low frequency sine wave output for precise insulation evaluation.
- Load capacitance support up to several microfarads depending on test voltage.
- Integrated high-voltage measurement and leakage current monitoring for enhanced safety and data accuracy.
- Automatic test sequences and built-in safety interlocks reduce user errors and protect equipment.
- Compact and portable design enables easy transportation to field sites.
Material & Build
The test set is built with robust, high-quality electrical components housed in a compact casing to withstand rigorous field conditions. Its design incorporates advanced HV electronics to deliver consistent and precise test signals with minimal power consumption.
Use Cases / Applications
- Commissioning and acceptance testing of medium-voltage power cables.
- Routine maintenance and preventive diagnostics of XLPE and PILC cable insulation integrity.
- VLF withstand and diagnostic testing to detect insulation weaknesses, defects, and aging.
