From our humble beginnings back in 1936, as a repair company servicing panel meters and instruments, Associated Research soon became a manufacturer, when founder James Inman designed the Vibrotest. The Vibrotest was the first battery operated insulation resistance tester ever created and became standard issue on all U.S. Navy ships during WWII. This was the first of what would become many firsts for AR.
With the increase of electrical products during the post-war economic boom, AR was again on the leading edge, this time with a Hipot Tester. Hipot testing indeed became the company's forte.
Over the years AR has continued to innovate and develop more advanced product lines in the Electrical Safety Compliance industry from basic entry-level manual Hipot and Ground Bond testers to fully-automated multi-function systems designed to meet the requirements of such agencies as UL, TÜV, CSA, IEC, VDE, BSI and the European Norms. These electrical safety compliance testing instruments will perform AC Hipot, DC Hipot, Insulation Resistance, Ground Bond, Line Leakage and Functional Run testing. Also available are accessory items such as switching matrices, probes and automation interfaces including IEEE-488 (GPIB), RS-232 or a printer controller.
