Go behind the scenes with Julia at Hitachi Energy’s test facilities in Ludvika, where high‑voltage equipment is pushed to the limits through extreme heat, freezing cold, driving rain, millions of volts, and maximum load – all to ensure the technology performs in real-world conditions.
In this episode, we step inside the High-Power Laboratory. Here, our high‑voltage breakers and other components are exposed to lightning‑fast short‑circuit tests, temperatures reaching thousands of degrees, and power levels equivalent to three nuclear power plants. Watch the film to learn how it works.
In the High-Power Laboratory, you’ll follow our engineers and technicians – a dedicated team whose expertise and commitment ensure that our high‑voltage components are ready for long and demanding operation.
