Testing is an essential activity in any engineer's career. Whatever your role in industry electrical designer, purchase engineer, manufacturer, installation contractor or maintenance engineer a solid knowledge of tests to be carried out on a given piece of electrical equipment and interpretation of results obtained is a necessity. This manual is designed to familiarise you with various aspects of testing general electrical equipment and high voltage testing in particular. Examples are cited from various international standards regarding the procedure for conducting of tests and interpreting the test results. The need for keeping proper records of tests conducted both in the initial stages and later during routine maintenance is discussed. Some of the tests are too complex to be performed on a routine basis or may require specialised equipment which may not be normally available to user industries or even manufacturers. This is where the services of an independent and accredited test lab is useful. The role of such labs is briefly discussed.
