Moisture Resistance Test
Moisture Resistance Test

Various electrical systems have different voltage levels and regular maintenance of all kinds of electrical systems is required in order to ensure continuity by preventing interruptions and ensuring the safety of life and property. In addition to many factors, high temperature and humidity are effective in the failure of electrical systems.

For example, the loosening of a simple switch on an electrical panel can cause high temperatures, which can lead to short-circuiting or electrical arcing. Similarly, high humidity in the environment can cause the air to become conductive and cause electrical discharges called the Corona effect.

Humid and foggy weather environments can easily be ionized. In particular, the power transmission lines are highly affected by humid and foggy weather, and if the air is ionized, purple rings appear on the surface of the phase conductors. This event is called corona.

Electric current causes loads on electrical devices. Improper installation, aging, mechanical stresses or damages result in increased resistance and electrical energy begins to convert into heat energy. As a result, warming starts. Temperature values ​​can be easily measured using thermal imagers. This event occurs in areas such as switches, transformers, high-voltage lines, connecting points, electric motors and the humidity and temperature control of the environment must be performed.

It is very important to have the necessary electrical tests done in order to avoid any risky situation. Authorized laboratories also carry out moisture resistance tests in many electrical tests. The laboratories comply with the criteria and conditions determined in the current legal regulations during these test studies as well as the standards developed by domestic and foreign organizations.

These laboratories use state-of-the-art test equipment in order to ensure that the tests are fast, reliable and of high quality and employ trained and experienced engineers in their staff.
