RVM 5462

The recovery voltage method is based on the phenomenon of the polarization of oil/paper impregnated insulation. The RVM 5462 Advanced Automatic Recovery Voltage Meter examines the oil/paper insulation condition by tracing the polarization spectrum. For example, in moist oil/paper insulation there is a polarization of water molecules when applying a DC voltage. The water molecules acquire a polarity, drift in the direction of the electric field, and become energized. After short-circuiting the insulation some energy will still remain stored in the molecules and the “recovery voltage” of this stored energy can be measured.
