Datasheet

User Manual

• Q. What is a high voltage insulation tester?
  A. A high voltage insulation tester is an electronic device used to measure the insulation resistance of electrical equipment and systems. It applies a high voltage to the equipment and measures the resistance to current flow through the insulation. This test helps assess the quality and integrity of insulation in various electrical components.

• Q. How does a high voltage insulation tester work?
  A. A high voltage insulation tester generates a high DC voltage and applies it to the equipment's terminals. It measures the resulting current flow through the insulation and calculates the insulation resistance using Ohm's Law (R = V/I). The higher the resistance, the better the insulation quality.

• Q. Is it safe to use a high voltage insulation tester?
  A. Yes, it's safe to use a high voltage insulation tester when proper safety procedures are followed. Users should be trained in electrical safety, wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), and ensure that the equipment being tested is properly de-energized before connecting the tester.

• Q. Are there portable and handheld high voltage insulation testers available?
  A. Yes, portable and handheld high voltage insulation testers are available. These compact devices are convenient for field testing and maintenance, offering features like data logging, wireless connectivity, and user-friendly interfaces.
