Megavar engineers use this unit on commissioning projects across Australia. Hire it from a team that knows it inside out.
The HVA 60 performs high-voltage VLF withstand tests on medium- and high-voltage cables, switchgear, and rotating machinery. It helps verify insulation integrity before or after installation, repair, or maintenance.
It is suitable for testing cables rated up to 36 kV, including XLPE, PILC, and EPR-insulated cables, as well as transformers, motors, and switchgear insulation.
The unit delivers up to 60 kV peak (42 kV RMS) at 0.1 Hz with a true sinusoidal waveform, in compliance with IEC and IEEE testing standards.
Yes. The HVA 60 can be used with optional add-ons to perform Tan Delta (TD) and Partial Discharge (PD) testing, depending on your configuration.
Yes, the instrument includes internal memory and USB connectivity for easy data download and reporting.
Yes. Despite its high voltage output, the HVA 60 is housed in a compact, lightweight, and rugged case suitable for tough field environments.
