TESTING LABORATORIES FOR HIGH-VOLTAGE POWER EQUIPMENT - ASPECTS AND REQUIREMENTS TO ENSURE RELIABLE ENERGY SUPPLY

摘要

The paper gives an overview about the testing requirements to verify the product integrity and capability for high-voltage power products. Testing approaches respectively examples from the high-voltage, high-power and mechanical testing laboratory are presented and important testing aspects are discussed. Moreover, other general laboratory requirements aspects such as accreditation or environmental requirements are discussed as well. Finally, the testing capabilities of the switchgear factory Berlin are presented.
