Overview of Insulation Resistance Tester

:2025-03-27 08:43:33:

Insulation resistance tester is an instrument used to measure the insulation resistance of electrical equipment. It plays an important role in the maintenance, repair, testing, and calibration of electrical equipment. The following is a detailed introduction to the insulation resistance tester:

1. Working principle

The insulation resistance tester applies a voltage to excite the tested equipment, and then measures the resulting current, using Ohm's law to calculate the resistance value. It usually uses DC voltage as excitation instead of AC voltage to ensure measurement accuracy.

2. Main features

① High precision measurement: The insulation resistance tester has high precision and can accurately measure the insulation resistance value of electrical equipment.

② Strong anti-interference ability: Some advanced insulation resistance testers have anti-interference ability and can accurately measure in strong electric field environments.

③ Easy to operate: The insulation resistance tester is designed to be simple and easy to operate, and users only need to perform simple operations to complete the measurement.

Multifunctionality: Some testers also have other functions such as measuring capacitance and dielectric loss.

3. Precautions for use

① Safe operation: Before measurement, the power supply of the tested equipment must be cut off and short circuited to ground to ensure the safety of personnel and equipment.

② Environmental requirements: The testing environment should be relatively dry to avoid excessive humidity affecting the measurement results.

③ Correct wiring: Connect the tested equipment correctly according to the wiring requirements of the tester to avoid inaccurate measurements or damage to the tester caused by wiring errors.

④ Regular calibration: To ensure the accuracy of measurement results, the insulation resistance tester should be calibrated regularly.

4. Scope of application

The insulation resistance tester is suitable for insulation testing of various electrical equipment, including but not limited to:

① Power system: used to test the insulation resistance of key equipment such as generators, transformers, busbars, cables, etc.

② Industrial automation: used to test the insulation performance of electrical equipment such as motors, controllers, sensors, etc.

③ Architecture and infrastructure: used to test the insulation performance of electrical equipment such as distribution boxes, lighting systems, elevators, etc.

④ In the field of new energy, it is used to test the insulation performance of equipment such as photovoltaic panels, inverters, and energy storage batteries.

⑤ In the field of transportation, it is used to detect the power supply equipment, signal systems, and electrical systems of electrified railways and vehicles.

5. Maintenance and upkeep

① Regular cleaning: Use a clean soft cloth to wipe the tester housing and display screen to remove dust and stains.

② Avoid falling: During carrying and storage, avoid the tester from being subjected to vibration, impact, or falling.

③ Regular inspection: Regularly check whether the wiring, plugs and other components of the tester are intact, whether there is any damage or aging phenomenon.
