Laboratory for testing electrical equipment, materials, protective equipment and safety
History
The Laboratory for Testing Electrical Equipment, Materials, Protective Equipment and Safety has been working consistently on research and diagnostic testing of the state of electrical power equipment at various voltage levels for the demands of the electric power industry and other industries since the 1960s. Many users in the country and its surroundings have acknowledged how the field of work has expanded by introducing new and upgrading traditional testing methods. As the market becomes more liberalized, the Laboratory becomes more crucial for maintaining product quality, determining whether electrical power equipment complies with applicable laws and standards, taking part in testing and expert analyses, and providing recommendations.
Primary activity
- Type, routine, and special testing of different voltage levels of power equipment
- New equipment acceptance testing, as well as periodic diagnostic testing
- Supervision of power equipment acceptance tests at the manufacturer's facility (FAT) and acceptance testing at the installation site (SAT)
- Thermographic testing of power plant equipment
Test objects
- Circuit breakers and switches (heating test, industrial frequency voltage test and atmospheric shock voltage test, safety parameters test),
- Surge arresters (defining alternating and shock response voltages, testing with current waves and determining I/O characteristics, and recording drain current); (dielectric tests, heating tests),
- Power cables and cable accessories (dielectric tests, heating tests),
- Insulating protection equipment for electrical systems (testing gloves and footwear made of insulating material, insulating benches, voltage detectors, insulating poles),
- Items used in environments that require static electricity protection
