Insulation resistance measuring procedure
 Select the R ISO function using the function selector keys.
 Set the required test voltage.
 Enable and set limit value (optional).
 Disconnect tested installation from mains supply (and discharge insulation as required).
 Connect test cable to the instrument and to the item to be tested (see
 Figure 5.6 and
 Figure 5.7).
Different test cable must be used for testing with nominal test voltage U
N
≤ 1000 V and
U
N
= 2500 V. Also different test terminals are used.
The standard three-wire test lead, schuko test cable or plug / tip commanders can be
used for the insulation test with nominal test voltages ≤ 1000 V. For the 2500 V
insulation test the two wire 2.5 kV test lead should be used.
 Press the TEST key to perform the measurement (double click for continuous
measurement and later press to stop the measurement).
 After the measurement is finished wait until tested item is fully discharged.
 Store the result by pressing the MEM key (optional).
