Figure 6 Standard mode insulation test
9.2 Insulation resistance testing – timed modes ‘t’, PI and DAR
Three types of timed test are possible:
(a) Standard count down timer (t)
Timed tests are performed over a timed period defined by parameter ‘t’ (also refer to Set-up
procedures 13).
(b) Polarization Index (PI)
PI is the ratio between the insulation resistance values recorded at 1 minute (assigned t1)
and at 10 minutes interval (assigned t2). i.e. after 1 minute and 10 minutes.
PI = 10 minute value/1 minute value
(c) Dielectric Absorption Ratio (DAR)
DAR is the ratio between the insulation resistance values at 30seconds (assigned t1) and at 60
second interval (assigned t2). i.e. after 30seconds and 60seconds.
