Product Introduction
An impulse voltage generator is a device that generates impulse voltage waves. It is used to test the insulation performance of electrical equipment under atmospheric overvoltage and switching overvoltage. Therefore, an impulse voltage generator can generate not only lightning impulse voltage waveforms and lightning impulse voltage chopped waveforms, but also switching impulse voltage waveforms.
This series of impulse voltage generators can be used to conduct impulse voltage tests and other scientific research on insulator strings, long air gaps, bushings, instrument transformers, transformers, and other test objects.

FAQ
Q: 1. How does an impulse generator work?
A: The impulse generator produces impulse voltage waves by charging main capacitors through a charging transformer and rectifier, then discharging them via a spark gap and wave-shaping resistors (front and tail resistors) to form the required waveform.
Q: 2. What is lightning impulse?
A: Lightning impulse is a type of impulse voltage wave used to test insulation performance of power equipment against atmospheric overvoltages. The generator can produce lightning impulse voltage waves.
Q: 3. Will lightning strike a generator?
A: The manual does not state whether lightning will strike a generator. However, the impulse generator is designed to test equipment such as transformers, bushings, and insulators against lightning impulses.
