Our equipment supports wide-range adjustable DC test current from 200A up to 6500A, fully covering all current load requirements for EV charging connectors, power terminals and high-current electrical accessories as specified in IEC 62196 and related international testing standards.
The ultra-high 6500A maximum output enables authentic simulation of extreme overload and long-duration rated current operating conditions, allowing labs and manufacturers to accurately assess temperature rise, heat conduction and contact reliability of large-current components.
This full-spectrum high-current capacity eliminates the need for multiple separate test power supplies, delivers consistent, stable constant current output during long-hour temperature-rise cycling tests, and guarantees reliable, repeatable certification test data for product safety compliance verification.
