Ikonix USA HiPot 5205A

The 5205A is a HiPot from Associated Research. HiPot, or high potential, is a class of electronic test equipment used to verify electrical insulation. Engineers use HiPot-testing instruments on cables, wires, circuit boards, appliances, electric motors, and transformers. As a product ages, its insulation may break down and result in current flow leakage. HiPot testers keep engineers safe from current leakages by detecting gaps and defects in the electronic device. Dielectric Testers, Insulation Testers, and Megohmmeters are similar to HiPot testers. Popular manufacturers include Biddle, Megger, Fluke, Associated Research, Quadtech, Instek, and Slaughter. Additional Features: Output: 0-5KV DC Current: 2A Input: 120V, 60 Hz, single phase 2% Accuracy The Associated Research 5205A is for dielectric withstand testing of rotating machinery, transformers, switchgear and cables for acceptance and routine maintenance in the field.
