Electrical and Electronic Test Equipment Market: High-Voltage EV Testing and 5G Signal Validation to Drive Market Growth

The global electrical and electronic test equipment market encompasses the full spectrum of instruments, systems, and apparatus used to verify, characterize, and validate the performance, safety, and compliance of electrical and electronic products, components, and systems across development, manufacturing, installation, and maintenance environments. Valued at approximately USD 16 billion in 2025, the market includes oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, power analyzers, insulation testers, high-voltage test systems, electromagnetic compatibility test equipment, battery test systems, and power quality analyzers — collectively serving the broadest possible range of electrical and electronic measurement requirements from sub-millivolt precision voltage measurement through megavolt-class high-voltage apparatus testing for power transmission equipment qualification.

The market experienced a broadly documented recovery in 2025 following the 2023 to 2024 inventory correction cycle. Keysight Technologies reported fiscal year 2025 revenue of USD 5.4 billion — up 8% year-over-year — confirming recovery across its electronic test instrument portfolio. Teradyne delivered USD 3.19 billion in 2025 revenue, up 13%, driven by AI semiconductor test equipment demand. Rohde & Schwarz exceeded EUR 3 billion in annual revenue for the first time. These results from the three largest electronic test equipment vendors collectively document that the electrical and electronic test equipment market returned to growth in 2025 on the back of 5G infrastructure deployment, AI semiconductor complexity, electric vehicle validation, and renewable energy installation — four structural growth drivers with multi-year demand visibility.

Consultant POV

The electrical and electronic test equipment market’s 2025 performance — Keysight +8%, Teradyne +13%, Rohde & Schwarz record EUR 3 billion+ revenue — is the most compelling evidence available that the market has completed its inventory correction and moved into a demand-driven expansion phase anchored by structural growth vectors with multi-year duration. AI semiconductor complexity, 5G/6G RF infrastructure, EV electrical system validation, CHIPS Act domestic manufacturing investment, and renewable energy electrical test demand are five concurrent structural drivers, each independently capable of sustaining market growth, and each at relatively early penetration relative to their full demand potential. The decade ahead will be defined by how much of the AI semiconductor complexity and EV electrification investment translates into incremental per-unit electrical test equipment procurement — and the evidence from 2025 suggests the answer is substantially more than historical semiconductor and automotive test market models would have predicted.
