When the elec\u00adtri\u00adfi\u00adca\u00adtion of the world was still in its infan\u00adcy, two friends Franz Josef Koch and Kurt August Sterzel found\u00aded the com\u00adpa\u00adny \u201eKoch & Sterzel Spezial\u00adfab\u00adrik wis\u00adsenschaftlich\u00ader Appa\u00adrate und Instru\u00admente oHg\u201c in Dres\u00adden. With\u00adin a decade, they devel\u00adoped it into a lead\u00ading com\u00adpa\u00adny for high-fre\u00adquen\u00adcy tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy, test\u00ading sys\u00adtems, mea\u00adsur\u00ading trans\u00adduc\u00aders and the con\u00adstruc\u00adtion of X\u2011ray appa\u00adra\u00adtus. After the Sec\u00adond World War, the VEB Trans\u00adfor\u00adma\u00adtoren- und R\u00f6nt\u00adgen\u00adwerk Dres\u00adden (TuR) was found\u00aded from the remains of the heav\u00adi\u00adly destroyed pro\u00adduc\u00adtion facil\u00adi\u00adties. The Koch & Sterzel prod\u00aduct range was con\u00adtin\u00adued, fur\u00adther devel\u00adoped and adapt\u00aded to the new sci\u00aden\u00adtif\u00adic require\u00adments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the reuni\u00adfi\u00adca\u00adtion of East and West Ger\u00admany, Siemens AG took over the busi\u00adness and, in 1995, found\u00aded the high-volt\u00adage test\u00ading tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy as a sep\u00ada\u00adrate com\u00adpa\u00adny named HIGHVOLT. In the fol\u00adlow\u00ading years, numer\u00adous new devel\u00adop\u00adments were cre\u00adat\u00aded such as XXL reac\u00adtor coils for test\u00ading extra-long cables, ful\u00adly auto\u00admat\u00aded test sys\u00adtems for dis\u00adtri\u00adb\u00adu\u00adtion trans\u00adform\u00aders, and com\u00adplex mea\u00adsure\u00adment tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy. The com\u00adpa\u00adny, which has been part of the Rein\u00adhausen Group since 2002, con\u00adtin\u00adues its con\u00adtri\u00adbu\u00adtions to mak\u00ading the ener\u00adgy sup\u00adply of tomor\u00adrow safe and sus\u00adtain\u00adable with its inno\u00adva\u00adtions and solu\u00adtions in the field of high-volt\u00adage test\u00ading tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the 1990s onwards, advances in cable tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy make it pos\u00adsi\u00adble to trans\u00admit ever high\u00ader volt\u00adages. HIGHVOLT\u2019s work is instru\u00admen\u00adtal in estab\u00adlish\u00ading res\u00ado\u00adnance test\u00ading of these cables as a glob\u00adal\u00adly accept\u00aded stan\u00addard tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy.

The prod\u00aducts of the Dres\u00adden-based com\u00adpa\u00adny are more in demand than ever in view of the grow\u00ading glob\u00adal demand for ener\u00adgy. In order to meet the grow\u00ading demand for mod\u00adern high-volt\u00adage test\u00ading tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy, a new pro\u00adduc\u00adtion site was opened in Klip\u00adphausen in August 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n
