Physical and chemical testing

Laboratory for physical and chemical testing has more than 65 years of experience in specialized tests of physical and chemical properties of materials for electrotechnical applications.

Also, the laboratory has more than 30 years of experience in the development and diagnostic of physical, chemical, and dielectric tests of transformer oil and paper for assessment of the condition of the transformer insulating system.

In the last two decades, the basic activity of the Laboratory is the testing of insulating liquids and paper for electrical insulation in accordance with the requirements of national and international standards (HRN, EN, IEC, ISO, ASTM).
