Chauvin Arnoux P01295516 HV test lead 5 kV (35 cm) with axial socket (blue) content_copy

The product is a high-voltage cable from the brand Chauvin Arnoux, designed for measurement applications in the 5 kV range. It is a blue-coloured cable with a length of 0.35 metres, specifically designed for use in high-voltage measuring instruments and systems. The cable features an HS safety plug, ensuring a secure and reliable connection. The rear mounting, also known as an axial socket, allows for precise and stable installation on measuring devices, particularly in arrangements where the plug is inserted towards the interior of the device. This design is typical for applications requiring a compact and secure connection, such as in laboratory environments or field measurements with mobile equipment.

High-voltage cable is designed for use in electrical systems with voltages up to 5 kV. The use of an HS safety plug ensures that the connection can only be established under safe conditions, thereby reducing the risk of short circuits or electrical accidents. The plug is designed to fit only into compatible sockets that also meet the safety standard. The axial socket enables rear mounting, where the plug extends into the socket, which is particularly advantageous for devices with limited space.

Applications include testing and measuring high-voltage installations, for example in electrical engineering, maintenance of transformers, switchgear, or in industrial electrical manufacturing. The cable is designed for use in environments where high electrical safety is required. The blue colour serves as a visual identifier and can be used within colour-coding systems for specific voltage ranges or functions, with the exact meaning depending on the operator’s internal guidelines.

Functions and equipment in detail include the integrated safety plug connection, ensuring a secure and reliable electrical connection. The length of 0.35 metres is suitable for short connections between measuring device and test object, with the cable construction providing high mechanical stability and electrical insulation. The use of a high-voltage cable always requires compliance with applicable safety regulations, especially when working with voltages above 1 kV.

Technology explained simply shows that the cable was specifically developed for the high-voltage range. The insulation is rated for the 5 kV voltage class, meaning it has the required electrical strength to prevent breakdowns under operating conditions. The HS safety plug is a standard in high-voltage technology, enabling a secure connection by allowing insertion only into compatible sockets. The axial socket is a special design where the plug extends into the socket, enabling compact mounting.

Compatibility and accessories refers to use with other high-voltage measuring devices and systems that also use HS safety plugs and axial sockets. The cable is not compatible with other plug systems that do not meet the HS standard. It can be used in combination with other high-voltage cables and measuring devices, provided the plug connections match. The blue colour serves as a visual identifier, but has no specific technical function.

Individual features such as length, voltage class, and plug connection are detailed in the technical specifications. The use of the cable always requires compliance with applicable safety regulations, especially when working with high voltage. Installation is done by simply inserting the plug into the axial socket, with mechanical stability ensured by the plug and socket design. The cable is designed for use in environments requiring high electrical safety and requires no additional mounting aids.

Operational advantages lie in the secure and reliable connection guaranteed by the HS safety plug. The axial socket enables compact mounting, which is particularly beneficial in limited space conditions. The length of 0.35 metres is ideal for short connections, with the cable construction providing high mechanical stability and electrical insulation. The blue colour serves as a visual identifier, but has no specific technical function. The use of the cable always requires compliance with applicable safety regulations, especially when working with high voltage.
