Introduction
Thank you for purchasing your AVC-25VA Dielectric Strength Tester with
mA indicator. This high-voltage power supply is designed especially for
measuring dielectric strength or breakdown (often called the "HIPOT"
test) as required by many CSA and UL specifications for both qualification
and production testing. Please read the following instructions carefully
before using your instrument. By following the steps outlined in this
manual your meter will provide years of reliable service.
Product Quality
This product has been manufactured in an ISO9001 facility and has

product specifications.
Safety
• This equipment operates at high voltage (2500V AC) and can pose a
risk of electric shock or electrocution. Never touch exposed electrical
connections while the unit is powered on.
• Only trained and qualified personnel should operate, maintain, or
repair this equipment. Improper use can result in severe injury
or death.
• High-voltage discharges and other sources of strong electric or
magnetic fields may interfere with the proper functioning of heart
pacemakers. Personnel using heart pacemakers should obtain
expert advice on the possible risks before operating this equipment
or being close to the equipment during operation.
• Before testing, ensure that all insulation on the equipment under test
is intact and capable of withstanding the applied voltage. Failure to do
so may result in damage to the equipment or inaccurate test results.
• Always ensure proper grounding of both the equipment under test
and the tester itself. Failure to ground the tester properly can result
in inaccurate readings or damage to the equipment.
