Electrical safety testers: ensuring reliability and compliance with standards

We develop electrical safety testers and standards testers to customer specification, so you can run accurate analyses against the applicable standards.

We develop electrical safety testers and standards testers to customer specification, so you can run accurate analyses against the applicable standards.

What is an electrical safety tester?
An electrical safety tester, also called a standards tester, measures whether an electrical system or product meets safety standards, such as:

EN 60335 (household appliances)
EN 60204 (safety of electrical equipment in machinery)
EN 60598-1 (lighting equipment)
Testers check insulation resistance, leakage currents, earth resistance and voltage withstand (hipot tests).

Why safety tests matter
Legal compliance: many companies are required by law to test products or systems before they reach the market.
User safety: a tested product reduces the risk of accidents.
Quality assurance: catching defects early prevents recalls and production stoppages.

IONIO’s customer-specific test solutions
We build electrical safety testers to fit your application, tailored to your requirements and processes rather than off the shelf.

Our solutions offer:
Accurate measurements.
Intuitive operation and clear measurement results.
Applications ranging from simple checks to extensive norm tests.
Development to your specific application.
In-house service and calibration

We also run our own service and calibration department. Our engineers service, calibrate and, where needed, upgrade your equipment, so the test system stays accurate and up to date.

Example: motors and control cabinets
Say you build electric motors or control cabinets. With testers developed for your case, you can:

Check the insulation of cables and components.
Analyse earth connections and leakage currents.
Meet international standards such as EN 60204 and EN 60598-1.
That lets you confirm the product is safe before it reaches the end user.

Working with IONIO
We work with SCHLEICH GmbH, a supplier of test and measurement systems. Combined with our own service and calibration department, that covers advice, implementation, maintenance and optimisation.
