Electrical safety analyzers and ground bond testers perform a range of electrical safety tests in order to determine whether or not the device at stake (often medical equipment) follows electrical safety requirements.
Maintaining Electrical Safety
Electrical safety is a vital aspect to any environment that has electrical equipment. Whether it is a lab or a facility, there will always be devices that need to meet a variety of safety standards in order to maintain the quality and prevent malfunctions in electrical devices. Fire prevention, shocks, and surges are among the reasons for why these testing requirements exist.
What Is An Electrical Safety Analyzer?
An electrical safety analyzer tests a device to make sure it meets safety standards that involve electricity. Electricians, lab technicians, and other operators in a variety of fields use electrical analyzer testers. Electrical safety requirements must be met and maintained in all professional fields that use electrical devices or systems, and electrical safety analyzers allow technicians to maintain electrical safety and meet these requirements.

Electrical Analyzer Testing
There are a variety of test performed to ensure electrical safety like ground continuity tests, insulation tests, high voltage tests, chassis, line leakage tests, and a number of others. Ground bond testing, performed by ground bond testers, is one such test. Often an electrical safety analyzer is also used to test medical equipment.
ATEC’s Safety Analyzers
Advanced Test Equipment Rentals supplies a variety of electrical safety analyzers and ground bond testers that are equipped for AC/DC/IR tests. Depending on your needs, many can perform Corona Discharge Detection (CDD) tests that identify Corona discharge Start Voltage (CSV). There are also tests for Flashover Start Voltage (FSV), and Breakdown Voltage (BSV). Our safety analyzers also offer beneficial subsidiary functions, like programmable voltage, time parameters, current limit and more, to enhance the test reliability.
