New KP-Test: High-voltage safely under control
Voltage testers from the KP-Test product family are being used worldwide. PFISTERER has now launched the new KP-Test 5H for the high-voltage range from 36 to 420 kV – successfully tested in accordance with IEC 61243-1 by the Institute of Electrical Energy Supply and High-Voltage Technology (IEEH) at the Technical University of Dresden.
The successor to the KP Test III has all of the special features that are already well-known from the KP-Test 5: the red signal that indicates the presence of voltage is generated by six light emitting diodes that are highly visible and thus can be easily differentiated from the green light that illuminates when there is no voltage present. The new arrangement of the test lamps supports the strength of the optical signal, and the integrated acoustic signal ensures additional safety. Neither poor visibility conditions nor loud background noise are able to affect how these are perceived by the person carrying out the test. The enhanced self-test with micro-controller complements the safety package by monitoring all of the voltage tester's functional units. To facilitate simple testing of whether transmission lines are voltage-free, the new KP-Test 5H is available with insulating rods of different lengths.
