Founded as Everett Edgcumbe, High Voltage Instruments Ltd. has been a pioneering force in test instrument design since its establishment in 1900. Over time, the company underwent a name change to Edgcumbe Instruments Ltd. and introduced the Metrohm brand.
Internationally renowned for its exceptional product quality, innovation, and value for money, the Metrohm brand enjoys a prestigious reputation. In April 2007, following a management buy-out, High Voltage Instruments Ltd expanded its portfolio by incorporating the Metrohm range of High Voltage products, originally designed by Edgcumbe Instruments.
Since 2007, the company has been headquartered in Glasgow, Scotland. However, in November 2020, after a takeover by T&R Group, High Voltage Instruments' manufacturing facilities were relocated to a state-of-the-art and larger manufacturing complex in Guildford, Surrey, in 2022.
Our Products Include:
High Voltage Detectors
Extensively utilised in the electricity industry, these devices are crucial for verifying that high voltage lines are safely de-energized before any work commences. This vital step ensures the protection and well-being of personnel involved.
Dead Break Testers
Precisely engineered for the purpose, these devices are specifically designed to be used on capacitive test points found in separable connectors and insulated polymetric cables within fused cable boxes.
Live Line Indicators
This battery-powered electronic unit is meticulously crafted to cater to the testing needs of DC systems, with a specific focus on Mass Transit Railway (Metro) and Tram models.
