HV Testing Laboratory

Design from scratch or upgrade of high-voltage test laboratories for transformers and other high-voltage components: test hall, sources, measuring systems, shielding, procedures and the training of the people who will run it.

HV Testing Laboratory
What it covers
  • What we design

    Layout of the test hall and of the transformer test bay; AC, impulse and DC sources; measuring systems and their calibration; shielding and grounding for partial-discharge measurements; safety interlocks; procedures for routine, type and special tests.

  • Upgrade of an existing laboratory

    Assessment of the sources and instruments you have, what is missing to test the next voltage class or the next unit power, and a plan in steps. Feasibility analysis of the upgrade of a transformer factory from 245 kV to 550 kV in Egypt.

  • Beyond the laboratory

    For a new transformer factory we can design the whole manufacturing process, from the plant layout to the machinery and the process steps that power-transformer manufacturing requires.

How we work

From the list of tests to the first test with your staff.

  1. 1

    Requirement

  2. 2

    Concept

    Layout, sources, measuring systems and a budget estimate.

  3. 3

    Specifications

    Technical specifications of the equipment for the tenders, and the evaluation of the offers.

  4. 4

    Commissioning

    First tests carried out together with the people who will run the laboratory.
