Core Measurement Capabilities
True Peak Voltage Measurement
Accurately captures peak voltages up to 500V input (equivalent to 5MV test voltage at 10,000:1 ratio) with ≤1% error. The peak/√2 mode directly correlates with RMS values for simplified interpretation.
Programmable Voltage Ratio
4-digit ratio switch (1-9999) enables direct kV readout of test voltages. When set to actual transformer ratio, eliminates calculation errors and provides direct high-voltage measurements.
Flashover Event Capture
Automatically holds and records the exact voltage value at flashover instant, with 10ms response time for reliable dielectric strength test analysis.
Measurement Workflow
Connect: Input terminals to test transformer secondary
Set Ratio: Configure voltage ratio switch to match transformer
Select Mode: Choose between Peak, Peak/√2 or RMS display
Test: Apply AC withstand voltage to test object
Record: Read actual test voltage directly in kV on display
Capture: Unit auto-holds flashover voltage value for analysis
