  2. Sulfur hexafluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_hexafluoride

    Sulfur hexafluoride was used as a non-toxic test gas in an experiment at St John's Wood tube station in London, United Kingdom on 25 March 2007. [29] The gas was released throughout the station, and monitored as it drifted around.

  3. Sulfur hexafluoride circuit breaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_hexafluoride...

    An SF 6 circuit breaker rated 115 kV, 1200 A installed at a hydroelectric generating station. Sulfur hexafluoride circuit breakers protect electrical power stations and distribution systems by interrupting electric currents, when tripped by a protective relay.

  4. Electrical safety testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_safety_testing

    An insulation resistance test (IR test) measures the electrical resistance of insulation by applying a voltage between two locations, and measuring the resultant current flow. Proper safety precautions must be taken when doing this test, such as exclusion zones, making sure no wires are exposed, and personal protective equipment is worn.

  6. Electrical outlet tester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_outlet_tester

    A quick supplemental screening test for these simple miswiring errors can be performed using a non-contact voltage tester (NCVT) or non-contact voltage detector. [4] If a problem is thus identified, it can be investigated further using more-advanced equipment, or the outlet in question can be de-energized and disassembled for careful scrutiny. [4]

    This is determined by the polarity of the voltage on the highly curved electrode. If the curved electrode is positive with respect to the flat electrode, it has a positive corona; if it is negative, it has a negative corona. (See below for more details.) The physics of positive and negative coronas are strikingly different.
