In order to ensure that the insulation performance of the motor meets the requirements, in addition to selecting suitable electromagnetic wires and insulating materials, reliable process guarantees must be provided, such as process protection, suitable tooling, good varnishing equipment, and suitable process parameters.
Taking high-voltage motor windings as an example, most motor manufacturers will conduct inter-turn and withstand voltage tests on each coil, and conduct withstand voltage tests on the winding core before varnishing and on the entire machine during inspection tests. This brings us back to the customer's doubts about the withstand voltage issue.
Objectively speaking, the withstand voltage test is an irreversible destructive test. Whether it is for windings or single coils, it is not recommended to conduct repeated tests based on the necessity of finding problems. When repeating the test under special circumstances, the test voltage should be reduced in accordance with the requirements of relevant standards to minimize the damage to the insulation.
About the withstand voltage tester The withstand voltage tester is an instrument for measuring the withstand voltage strength. It can intuitively, accurately, quickly and reliably test the withstand voltage, breakdown voltage, leakage current and other electrical safety performance indicators of various objects under test. The withstand voltage tester can be used to find problems and determine the purpose of insulation performance compliance.
● Detect the ability of insulation to withstand working voltage or overvoltage. ● Check the insulation manufacturing or maintenance quality of electrical equipment. ● Eliminate damage to insulation caused by raw materials, processing or transportation, and reduce the early failure rate of products. ● Check the electrical clearance and creepage distance compliance of insulation. Principles for selecting withstand voltage test voltage
The best way to determine the test voltage is to set it according to the specifications required for the test. In general, 2 times the rated voltage plus 1000V is used as the test voltage setting. For example, if the rated voltage of a product is 380V, the test voltage is 2 x 380 + 1000 = 1760 V. Of course, the test voltage will also be set differently depending on the level of the insulation layer, and different product types have different voltage requirements.
