How to evaluate the insulation performance of low voltage wiring harness?

Publish Time: 2024-06-17
The insulation performance evaluation of low voltage wiring harness is a key link to ensure its safe and reliable operation. The following is a detailed explanation of the insulation performance evaluation of low voltage wiring harness:

1. Insulation resistance test

Insulation resistance test is one of the main methods to evaluate the insulation performance of low voltage wiring harness. It applies DC high voltage to both ends of the harness and measures its insulation resistance value to judge the insulation state. Under normal circumstances, without special requirements, the low voltage electrical insulation resistance can be calculated as not less than 1 megohm per kilovolt working voltage.

2. Dielectric strength test

Dielectric strength test is another important method to evaluate the insulation performance of low voltage wiring harness. It applies high voltage to the harness and detects the maximum voltage value that the harness can withstand, thereby evaluating the insulation state. Although this method can intuitively determine whether the insulation is damaged, the test equipment is relatively expensive and the test process is relatively complicated.

3. Insulation grade and temperature resistance

The insulation grade is generally determined by factors such as insulation protection type, protection level, and temperature change. Common insulation grades are A, E, B, F, and H, and each grade has its corresponding temperature resistance. Understanding the insulation level of the wiring harness can help us better evaluate its insulation performance.

4. Aging analysis of insulation materials

The degree of aging of insulation materials directly affects the insulation performance of the wiring harness. By analyzing the aging of insulation materials, we can understand their service life and aging degree, so as to judge whether the insulation performance of the wiring harness meets the requirements.

5. Precautions

When conducting insulation performance tests, the accuracy and reliability of the test equipment should be ensured.

During the test, the safety operating procedures should be strictly followed to avoid dangerous situations such as electric shock.

For low voltage wiring harnesses of different models and specifications, appropriate test methods and standards should be selected according to their actual conditions.

In summary, the insulation performance evaluation of low voltage wiring harnesses involves multiple aspects, including insulation resistance test, dielectric strength test, insulation level and temperature resistance, aging analysis of insulation materials, etc. By comprehensively evaluating these aspects, we can more accurately understand the insulation performance of low voltage wiring harnesses and ensure their safe and reliable operation.
