Introduction The Fluke Models 1503, 1507 and 1508 are battery-powered insulation testers (hereafter, Tester or UUT). These Testers meet CAT IV IEC 61010 standards. The IEC 61010 standard defines four measurement categories (CAT I to IV) based on the magnitude of danger from transient impulses.

Replacing the Fuse and Batteries Testing the Display Press and hold the blue key, and simultaneously turn the UUT on.
150X Series Calibration Manual Keypad Test The keypad consists of six keys located above the rotary switch. 1. To test the keypad, turn the rotary switch to and momentarily press each of the six keys. Each press of an operational key will cause the Meter to beep. No beep in response to a key press indicates a defective keypad.
Insulation Testers Disassembling and Reassembling the Meter Removing the Boot The standard Meter comes equipped with a snug-fitting yellow rubber boot. The boot helps protect the Meter from rough handling and is normally left on the Meter. The first step in disassembling the Meter is to remove the boot. Use the following procedure to remove the boot: 1.
150X Series Calibration Manual Opening the Bottom Case With the battery door removed, the next step in disassembling the Meter is to remove the bottom case. Use the following procedure to remove the bottom case: Note When removing the back cover, it is not necessary to remove the fuse or the batteries.

While holding the LCD assembly (face down) in one hand, position the PCA (fuse side up) over the bezel; match the guide holes in the PCA with the plastic guide pins on the bezel and the translucent light dispersing back panel. After the LCD assembly is in position, lock it in place by pressing (below the display) the bezel against the PCA;...
Meter (UUT) and its performance level. The performance test is recommended as an acceptance test for incoming inspection and as a calibration procedure for periodically ensuring the accuracy of the Meter. Fluke recommends running the performance test at least once a year.

Insulation Testers Performance Tests Source Voltage Accuracy Test, "R" Nominal Complete the test steps in Table 5 to verify source voltage of the insulation function under load. 1. Connect the test DMM and calibrator in parallel to the UUT INSULATION terminals.
Insulation Testers Performance Tests 3. Using the previously determined Meter Voltage Reading Error %, calculate the actual open circuit output voltage for each voltage range. Verify that the calculated value is within the limits shown in Table 6. The formula is UUT Recorded Reading x UUT Voltage Reading Error % + Recorded UUT Display Reading.

Insulation Testers Keys Used in the Calibration Steps Keys Used in the Calibration Steps The Meter keys behave as follows when performing the calibration adjustment procedure. T stores the calibration value and advance to the next step. H ignores the calibration value and advance to the next step. This key is also used to exit calibration function after the calibration adjustment sequence is complete.
