High voltage tracking test apparatus and tracking index test apparatus are both test equipment used to test certain physical properties of insulating materials, but the physical properties tested by the two equipment are different, therefore, the test standard base on the two equipment are also different, the following are the main differences between the two equipment. 1. Definition The high-voltage tracking tester is to simulate the power frequency (48Hz-62Hz), using liquid pollutants and inclined specimen to evaluate the resistance to tracking and corrosion of electrical insulating materials under severe ambient conditions. The electrical tracking refers to the continuous deterioration of the solid insulating surface due to the discharge of a local area and the formation of conductive or partial conductive channels. The tracking index test apparatus is to simulate the conductive substances deposited on the surface of insulating material caused by diffe...
