28. volts can be tested between 1 000 to 4 000 volts or higher Most double insulated products are tested at voltages much higher than the rule of thumb Testing during development and prototype stages is more stringent than production run tests because the basic design of the product is being evaluated Design tests usually are performed on only a few samples of the product Production tests are performed on each and every item as it comes off the production line The hipot tester must also maintain an output voltage between 100 and 120 of specification The output voltage of the hipot must have a sinusoidal waveform with a frequency between 40 to 70 Hz and has a peak waveform value that is not less than 1 3 and not more than 1 5 times the root mean square value Advantages and Disadvantages of AC Testing and DC Testing Please check with the Compliance Agency you are working with to see which of the two types of voltages you are authorized to use In some cases a Compliance Agency will allow either AC or DC testing to be done However in other cases the Compliance Agency only allows for an AC test If you are unsure which specification you must comply with please contact our CUSTOMER SUPPORT GROUP at 1 800 504 0055 Many safety agency specifications allow either AC or DC voltages to be used during the hipot test When this is the case the manufacturer must make the decision on which type of voltage to utilize In order to do this it is i
29. 1 Unless the item being tested has virtually no capacitance it is necessary to raise the voltage gradually from zero to the full test voltage The more capacitive the item the more slowly the voltage must be raised This is important since most DC hipots have failure shut off circuitry which will indicate failure almost immediately if the total current reaches the leakage threshold during the initial charging of the product under test Slaughter INTRODUCTION 2 Since a DC hipot does charge the item under test it becomes necessary to discharge the item after the test 3 DC testing unlike AC testing only charges the insulation in one polarity This becomes a concern when testing products that will actually be used at AC voltages This is a key reason that some safety agencies do not accept DC testing as an alternative to AC 4 When performing AC hipot tests the product under test is actually tested with peak voltages that the hipot meter does not display This is not the case with DC testing since a sinewave is not generated when testing with direct current In order to compensate for this most safety agencies require that the equivalent DC test be performed at higher voltages than the AC test The multiplying factor is somewhat inconsistent between agencies which can cause confusion concerning exactly what equivalent DC test voltage is appropriate The Ground Continuity Test The Ground Continuity test is checking to verify that there is low
