HVT Testers – High Voltage Test


HVT (High Voltage Test) systems are specialized devices designed for high voltage testing, which aim to check the insulation and electrical safety of components and electronic devices. These tests are extremely important in the production of high-voltage devices, such as industrial equipment, medical devices, power supplies, and electrical components in the automotive industry.
What are HVT tests?
HVT (High Voltage Test) tests check whether the insulation between the conductive elements of the system can withstand a specific voltage without breaking down. The aim is to ensure that the device is safe to use and that its insulation will prevent accidental contact of electrical current with components that should not be live.
Scope of application of HVT tests:
-
Insulation testing:
- The quality of insulation between conductive paths, circuit components, and between sections of the device is checked.
- Insulation tests cover both PCBs and entire devices. Insulation is tested by applying high voltage between selected points on the circuit.
-
Testing of finished devices or components at the production stages:
- HVT tests are performed at various stages of production:
- For PCB boards alone, to ensure that the tracks are properly insulated.
- For partially assembled devices, to detect potential insulation problems at an early stage of assembly.
- On finished devices, to ensure their safety before they are put into service.
- HVT tests are performed at various stages of production:
-
Dielectric strength testing:
- The device is subjected to a voltage higher than its normal operating voltage to ensure that the insulation will not break down under extreme conditions.
Use of needle testers in HVT:
- The needle tester plays a key role in HVT testing, enabling precise connection to test points on PCBs or devices.
- Thanks to precise needles (probes), it is possible to:
- Applying high voltage to selected points for insulation testing.
- Quickly and accurately connecting multiple points on a board simultaneously, speeding up the testing process.
- Reduction of errors resulting from manual connection of test points.
