Our testing technicians are heavily trained on the ANSI standards so that you can rest assured that your equipment is safe for use.
Dielectric testing, also known as electrical gloves testing or high voltage glove testing, is a critical process to ensure the safety and effectiveness of electrical gloves used by professionals working with high voltage equipment. These gloves act as a protective barrier against electrical shocks and are essential in safeguarding individuals from potential hazards.
During the dielectric test, electrical gloves are subjected to high voltage electrical currents to evaluate their insulation properties. The purpose is to assess the gloves' ability to withstand voltage and prevent electric current from passing through, thus protecting the wearer. The test measures parameters such as leakage current, dielectric breakdown voltage, and overall insulation integrity.
Electrical glove inspection is another crucial aspect of dielectric testing. Inspectors thoroughly examine the gloves for signs of wear and tear, such as cuts, punctures, or deterioration. Additionally, they check for proper sizing, fit, and overall condition of the gloves. Any damage or defects are noted, and appropriate action is taken, such as repairing or replacing the gloves.
By conducting dielectric testing and electrical glove inspection, organizations can ensure that their workers are equipped with reliable and safe protective equipment. This helps minimize the risk of electrical accidents and ensures a safer working environment in industries where high voltage equipment is utilized.
