Significant improvements in production line electrical safety testing are provided with the new PowerSmart automation and leakage test module by Clare Instruments. The module provides full leakage testing to EN 60990 and displays run test voltage and current during the functional tests. The power for the functional test can be either the internal supply or from the external connected electrical safety tester.

The module has been designed to work with standard electrical safety testers such as the Elite, with the addition of a safety test enclosure if required. Two versions are available as standard items - one for 16A and one for 50A applications. Single and three phase options can also be selected.

PowerSmart, when combined with both the Clare Elite comprehensive tester and a test enclosure system, reduces the risk of electric shock during high voltage automated production line testing and can be operated easily and safely by operatives using simple-to-use features.

It simplifies the test process giving immediate productivity benefits and enabling the user to safely perform tests on the production line.

For example, automatic electro-mechanical test probes and actuators which connect electrical test points to the product can be controlled directly from the module without the need for additional hardware.
