VLF withstand voltage tester

General information: VLF stands for Very Low Frequency. VLF is generally considered to be 0.1 Hz and lower, its major application is for testing solid dielectric cable, transformers, motors, generators, switchgear and other electrical apparatus. A VLF hipot is just an AC output tester but with an output frequency of 0.1 Hz or lower rather than 50/60Hz. Although the frequency is very low, it is still an alternating current with polarity reversals every half cycle. At 0.1 Hz
