If an AC power frequency voltage test is performed,
make sure a high performance test transformer is
available due to the high capacity of the bars.
The capacities of the individual bars are shown in the
routine test reports. The required transformer power
can be calculated accordingly. The required
transformer power can be significantly decreased by
performing a very low frequency (0.1 Hz) test instead
of a power frequency test. It is recommended to
perform a high-voltage test as per the valid standard.
Because it is a repeated test, only perform this test at
85 % of the standard AC power frequency test voltage.
