Hipot testers usually connect one side of the supply to safety ground (Earth ground). The other side of the supply is connected to the condu...

The test duration must be in accordance with the safety standard being used. The test time for most standards, including products covered un...

Most modern hipot testers allow the user to set the current limit. However, if the actual leakage current of the product is known, then the ...

The majority of safety standards allow the use of either ac or dc voltage for a hipot test. When using ac test voltage, the insulation in qu...

One of the advantages of using a dc test voltage is that the leakage current trip can be set to a much lower value than that of an ac test v...
