Power Diagnostix’s HVcontrol resp. the STEP compact controls the variac of a high voltage transformer of an high voltage (HV) test setup. Together with the HV pilot software they are designed to automate high voltage test sequences.
Using a serial interface, the software connects to an HVcontrol or a STEP compact for the voltage control and surveillance, or to an HVcompact for voltage measurement. The software offers the convenient programming and editing of test sequences, analyses the measured data, and automatically generates a report after the end of a test sequence. Additionally, the HVpilot software can connect to an ICMcompact to read the partial discharge (PD) level and acquire a coloured PD pattern. Further, the software can receive data from a tan delta measuring bridge, i.e., from Power Diagnostix’s TDAcompact or a third-party device, such as the loss factor as well as the capacitance of the device under test.
HVpilot comes with templates for a variety of different test sequences, e.g.:
Step tests
Breakdown tests
Gas insulatetd switchgear (GIS) tests
Bushing tests
Switchgear tests
An export function allows to save the acquired data for MS Excel and MS Word as well as an XML file or plain text.
