Insulation Tester
Before an Insulation Test
15
1537 only:
• Make a ramp test selection
• Measure dielectric discharge (DD)
• Compare insulation resistance
• Set a time limit/duration for the test
Use these features alone or in combination. Configure or validate (as
appropriate) each feature before you start an insulation test.
Preset Test Voltage Selection
To make a preset test voltage selection:
1. Turn on the Tester.
2. Push E to scroll through the preset test voltage options (250V, 500V,
1000V, 2500V).
The test voltage selection shows on the display.
Note
The actual test voltage can be up to 10 % higher than the selected
test voltage.
Program a Test Voltage (1537 only)
To set a test voltage in between the preset test voltages, proceed as follows:
1. Turn on the Tester.
2. Push E to select the test voltage.
3. Continue to push
E to scroll through the preset test voltage options
(250V, 500V, 1000V, 2500V). Select the voltage closest to the level
required.
The test voltage selection shows on the display.
Push
L or M to increase and decrease the voltage in 100 V steps until the
correct voltage level shows.
Note
The test voltage can be up to 10 % higher than the test voltage you
select.
