Electrical

ARDL’s capabilities for electrical testing include ASTM and ISO specifications to test a variety of materials to measure their performance where electrical insulation or resistance is important for safety or required protection.  We can test for dielectric breakdown voltage, dielectric strength, volume resistivity, conductivity and electrical resistance.

Available Methods
