Further information for Chauvin Arnoux P01295526 HV test lead 15 kV 50 cm blue
This product is a high-voltage cable from the brand Chauvin Arnoux, designed for measurement applications in the 15 kV range. It is a 0.5 metre long cable with a blue insulation jacket, specifically designed for use in high-voltage installations. The cable features an HS safety plug, ensuring a secure and reliable connection. The connection is made rearward, i.e. axially, enabling compact mounting and optimal space utilisation in tight installation environments. The blue colour serves as a visual identifier and supports quick recognition during operation.
High-voltage cables are required in electrical engineering for the transmission of electrical energy or measurement signals at high voltages. This cable is specifically designed for measurement tasks in the 15 kV range, with insulation strength and isolation adjusted to this voltage level. The use of an HS safety plug ensures that the connection can only be made under safe conditions, increasing the safety of operating personnel. The rearward connection type, also known as axial connection, enables a direct and stable connection, particularly in complex measurement setups.
HS safety plugs are standardised plug connections used in high-voltage technology to minimise the risk of incorrect connections or unintended current flows. They are designed to connect only with matching mating plugs, ensuring high safety during commissioning and maintenance. The use of this plug connection is common in industrial electrical engineering and with test and measurement devices.
Axial connection means that the plug is connected along the longitudinal axis of the cable. This design is particularly advantageous when the connection point is in a confined space or when flat mounting is required. The rearward configuration allows the cable to be connected directly to the rear of a device or measurement system without requiring additional space.
The cable is fitted with a blue insulation jacket serving as colour marking. In electrical engineering, colours are often used to distinguish cables with different functions or voltage levels. Blue is used here as an identifier, common in the context of high-voltage measurement technology, enabling quick identification during operation. The length of 0.5 metres is sufficient for many measurement tasks, especially when the connection between the measuring device and the test object is kept short to minimise interference and inductance.
The cable is designed for use in high-voltage installations, where high insulation strength and mechanical stability are required. Use in measurement systems requires high accuracy and reliability, so materials and construction are tailored to these requirements. The cable construction ensures a safe and stable connection, even under load from high electrical voltages.
Compatibility is a critical factor when selecting high-voltage cables. This cable is designed for use with devices requiring an HS safety plug with an axial socket. Use with other plug systems is not intended, as the plug connection is specifically adapted to the safety requirements of high-voltage technology. The length of 0.5 metres is suitable for many standard applications, but can be adjusted depending on the application environment if longer or shorter variants are available.
Installation is performed by simply inserting the HS safety plug into the corresponding socket. The rearward connection type requires no additional tools and can be carried out even in confined spaces. The connection is mechanically stable and electrically secure, ensuring reliable measurement. The colour marking supports quick identification and reduces the risk of incorrect connections.
In operation, the cable offers high reliability and safety. The use of an HS safety plug minimises the risk of accidents, especially during commissioning and maintenance of high-voltage installations. The axial connection type enables compact mounting, which is advantageous in industrial environments. The length of 0.5 metres is sufficient for many measurement tasks, ensuring the connection remains short and stable. The colour marking facilitates identification and contributes to safety.
