Hi there! Today we will be learning about what is called pagsubok ng hipot cableing. You may be saying, “What does that mean?... It is a special test to find out whether the electrical equipment is safe to use. This is so critical because we do not want to have applications of the devices that may lead to a crime, an accident or such.
Have you ever plugged an appliance, like a phone charger, or a lamp, and you felt a small shock? That is not safe at all! It can be very dangerous. Hipot dielectric testing prevents those shocks from occurring. This is by ensuring that electrical equipment is able to withstand the quantity of electricity, also known as voltage, that it is designed to service without crashing or failing. That way, we can use our devices safely, knowing they are secure.
Next we are going to discuss both varieties of hipot testering, AC and DC. AC testing is for equipment which works with alternating current. This is the type of current that most domestic devices, such as fridges, microwaves, and TVs, run on. DC testing, on the other hand, is for devices that run on direct current. This electricity is found in batteries, such as those found in toys and remote controls. Both electrical testing and PAT testing are extremely important because they ensure that all manner of electrical equipment is safe for everyday use.
Hipot dielectric testing is generally carried out to manufacture electronic devices, so they can be sold to the individuals. We take data but only up until October 2023. They have to guarantee their products safe for potential customers because if a defective product hurts someone, they could be in hades. I learned that by testing their devices, manufacturers can uncover issues and repair them before the devices are delivered to you. This allows to know possible failures and avoid accidents and also to keep people safe.
What to do after doing a hipot dielectric test? Once the test is complete, it will inform you whether your electrical equipment is safe for use. If it doesn’t make the cut, then that means there’s something off, and you will need to repair that before using it again. Compliance with Testing Protocols and regular equipment inspections can never be overemphasized. This helps us to avoid being in potentially dangerous situations and keeps ourselves and our families safe.
