Methods for measuring insulation resistance

Click:       Source:Zhengneng Electronic

    

Note: The insulation resistance test can only be carried out on the circuit without electricity. Before the test, check whether the test wire is good and confirm whether the circuit under test is powered


I、Four-step insulation resistance test

Step 1:
Turn the rotary switch to Ω, then press the yellow VSEL button on the left to select the voltage to be tested. There are: 250V/1000V/2500V/5000V



Step 2: Connect the grounding wire (black) to the EARTH end of the ES3025E meter and the other end to the ground of the device under test.

Step 3: One end of the high voltage bar test line (red) is connected to the LINE end of the ES3025E meter, and the other end is in contact with the device under test.

 
Step 4: As shown below, press the red TEST test button. The LCD displays the measured value. After the measurement, the display value is fixed and the insulation resistance value is read.

III、The insulation resistance value index


1. The insulation resistance of low-voltage lines and equipment after new and overhaul should not be less than 0.5 megaohms.
2. The value of the insulation resistance of the low-voltage line and equipment and per V voltage in operation shall not be less than 1 kΩ, for example 220V, the insulation resistance value shall not be less than 0.22 mega ohm, and the 380V shall not be less than 0.38 mega ohm.
3. The insulation resistance of the line and equipment in the humid environment and the electric volts per volt is not less than 500 ohms.
4. The insulation risk of portable electrical equipment or hand-held power tools should not be less than 2 megohms.
5. The insulation resistance of the control circuit should not be less than 1 megohm. In humid environments, it can be reduced to 0.5 megohms.
6. Overhead lines The insulation resistance of each suspension insulator should not be as low as 300 megohms.
7. The insulation resistance of high-voltage lines and equipment is generally not less than 1000 megohms.
8, The insulation resistance of a 6 to 10 kV cable line is not less than 400 to 1000 megohms.
9. The insulation resistance value before the power transformer is put into operation should not be lower than 70% when it is out of the factory, and it can be appropriately reduced during operation.

When the rated load of the motor is working to a steady state, the insulation resistance Rm (in MΩ) between the winding and the casing shall conform to the relationship expressed by the following formula.
In the formula: U is the rated voltage of the motor winding of the test, the unit is V; P is the rated power of the tested motor, the unit is kw.
Rm≥U/(1000+P/100)
Convert the cold resistance value for reference:
RMC≥U÷1000×(75-t)÷5
In the formula: RMC----Cold resistance evaluation value (Mega)
t----The winding temperature when measuring(℃)
u----Winding rated voltage(V).
