High Voltage DC Leakage Tester

The newly introduced Model PT-5000W High Voltage DC Leakage Tester from HC Electric is a general purpose dual voltage leakage tester designed to test equipment for faults or high leakage currents. The test voltage can be set by the user to either 500 VDC or 5,000 VDC.

The handheld PT-5000W can be used to check for leakage on cables, transformers, capacitors, joints, terminations, insulators, etc.

Key Features:
• Portable unit tests de-energized and discharged capacitors, transformers, terminations and insulators

• Use in overhead or underground systems

• User selectable - test 500 VDC or 5,000 VDC

The PT-5000W can only be used on cables or equipment that has been verified to be de-energized and discharged. primary distribution voltage or secondary voltage. For further info, see http://www.hdelectriccompany.com/pt5000w.htm
