Hi-Pot Adapter

Item Number: Category Search Terms , , , Brand:

For quick, reliable fault detection on underground cables, these units are available for phase-to-phase system voltages upto 35kV. By converting A.C. source voltage to pulsating D.C., these adapters permit testing of cables with a potential level equal to peak source voltage. This field effective method proves especially beneficial for- Testing new cable before initial energizing- Testing repaired cable before re-energizing- Testing suspect cable spans for faults. For metered readout, the Hi-Pot Adapters work in conjunction with CHANCE Phasing Tool No. H1876. A brass male fitting inside the larger end of either adapter simply threads onto the meter probe of the phasing tool. For testing and subsequent discharging, a brass female fitting at the smaller end of the adapter accepts either CHANCE Elbow Adapters or Bushing Adapters for 15 through 35 kV.

  • Illustrated instruction booklet shipped with each Hi-Pot Adapter explains testing and discharging procedures.
  • Units contain high-voltage rectifiers encapsulated in CHANCE orange 1.25 and 1.5 inch diameter Epoxiglas® housings.
