When purchasing an electrostatic discharge (ESD) generator, it’s easy to focus on one specification: maximum output voltage. But choosing the right ESD simulator involves much more than selecting between 16 kV and 30 kV. Today’s electronic devices are...

When high voltage equipment fails, it rarely does so without warning. Transformers, bushings, and cables don’t just collapse overnight; they drift. Quietly. Gradually. A little moisture. A bit of contamination. Aging insulation is doing what time always asks of it....
