 lighting chain testing
i was watching the electrical engineers testing some mains light chains they bought from Argos [ fairy lights in bamboo shoots - ornamental thing it was].
They were hi pot testing, they were arguing over the test voltage. Ian said 500 vac and john said no its 3570 vac. They were arguing about class 1 or class 2
I am only a junior in the team so i could not offer a response. who is correct.
So that i can join in the discussion and get my feet under the table [ i start college soon].
What is hi pot testing
what is flash testing
these items are 240vac mains - what class are they
what should the test voltage be and trip current [ i seen this on the clare tester]
