Product introduction
YDQ 5kVA AC DC hipot tester is a special high-voltage transformer that uses high insulation strength gas (usually sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆)) as the main insulation medium. It has become the mainstream equipment for modern high-voltage insulation testing, especially on-site testing, due to its outstanding advantages of being lightweight, efficient, safe, and maintenance free. It represents an important trend in the development of high-voltage testing equipment towards miniaturization, oil-free, and high reliability. Despite challenges such as high sealing requirements and SF₆ gas environmental issues, its comprehensive advantages make it an irreplaceable player in the power industry.

Product advantages
1. Small size and light weight: This is YDQ 5kVA AC DC hipot tester most significant advantage. Compared to oil immersed transformers of the same voltage level, its volume and weight can be reduced by 20% -60%, making it very suitable for situations that require frequent movement and on-site operations.
2. Excellent insulation performance: SF ₆ gas has high dielectric strength and stable performance, which can effectively prevent internal discharge.
3. Oil free design, safe and clean: eliminates potential oil leakage, fire and environmental pollution problems of oil immersed transformers, especially suitable for use in indoor, subway, mining and other places with strict fire prevention requirements.
4. Easy maintenance: Due to its fully sealed structure, there is basically no need for maintenance in daily use, saving the trouble of handling insulation oil.
5. Good electrical performance: good output voltage waveform and high stability.

working principle of 5kVA AC DC hipot tester
Its fundamental principle is the same as that of a conventional transformer, which is electromagnetic induction.
A lower power-frequency voltage (e.g., 200V or 400V) is applied to the transformer's low-voltage winding.
Through electromagnetic induction, a much higher voltage (e.g., 50kV, 100kV, 300kV, or even higher) proportional to the turns ratio is induced in the high-voltage winding.
This high voltage is brought out and applied to the equipment under test. The equipment is observed to see if it breaks down within a specified time period, thus determining whether its insulation strength is qualified.
The exceptional insulating properties of SF₆ gas make it possible to achieve high-voltage insulation within a compact space, which is the fundamental reason for its small size.
Application Scenarios of YDQ 5kVA AC DC hipot tester
1, Manufacturing and Maintenance of Power Equipment
1. Handover test and preventive test of power plant and substation equipment:
Power transformer: Conduct power frequency AC withstand voltage test and DC withstand voltage test to check the strength of the main insulation and longitudinal insulation.
High voltage switches (circuit breakers, isolating switches, GIS combination devices): Conduct a voltage withstand test between the broken and conductive parts and the ground to verify their insulation performance.
