DIELECTRIC TEST SUBCOMMITTEE

SCOPE

Study and review engineering aspects of test voltage requirements for service conditions, or conversely, voltage tests that will determine that service requirements are met for liquid filled transformers and reactors;
Develop and maintain related standards, recommended practices and guides for such criteria;
Coordinate with other technical committees, groups, societies and associations as required.
