Baur PGK 80 High Voltage Tester Repair
The Baur PGK 80 is an 80 kV VLF/DC cable test set — a higher-capacity portable HV tester for withstand-testing medium-voltage cable runs that need more than the 50 kV class. Its faults concentrate in the HV output stage, regulation, and metering.
June Company repairs and calibrates the PGK 80 for utility and contractor cable crews.
Common PGK 80 problems we fix
- Won’t reach 80 kV or output collapses — HV output-stage failure, often post-flashover, rebuilt for full output.
- Waveform/output instability — regulation degradation, repaired to spec.
- Metering off — voltage/leakage measurement drift, recalibrated.
- Internal HV arcing — insulation breakdown, repaired.
- Control or interlock faults.
FAQs
My PGK 80 won’t hold voltage — repairable? Yes. HV output-stage faults are the usual cause and they’re repairable, then verified so the set delivers full, stable output again.
Is it certified after repair? Yes — voltage and metering verified with a NIST-traceable certificate.
Every repair includes NIST-traceable calibration and a 90-day parts-and-labor warranty. Email us or submit a service request.
