Elite Electronic Engineering Inc.
Lightning, Surge, and ESD Testing
 
Elite provides a wide variety of electrical transient testing services including industry standard waveforms to customized pulses. Our electrical engineers are capable of producing the methods and equipment to provide nearly any wave shape.

We utilize state-of-the-art arbitrary waveform generators along with high power amplifiers and dedicated burst generators. We also custom build R-C circuits to produce specialized pulses or high voltage long duration electrical surges.
