Battery Replacement 1. When the battery power is not sufficient the LCD will display 2. Replacement of 6 new batteries, type 1.5V size “AA” is required. 3. Once replaced be sure to reinstall the battery cover and the four screws before operating. Measurements Insulation Resistance Measurements Measurements at 200MΩ/250V This is the voltage used for the majority of insulation resistance tests on normal installation requirements. To measure insulation resistance, press the test button to turn on the tester. The LCD will display the insulation resistance. Section VII indicated that subdivision of large installations might be necessary because of the large number of parallel insulation resistance. In such a case, an installation may be divided into sections, each being separately tested. Each section must have at least fifty outlets, an outlet being a switch, socket, lighting point etc. A switched socket counts as one outlet. The minimum accept- able insulation resistance is 1MΩ. For a large installation, the capacitance of the insulation will be high, and it will take longer for it to become charged by the direct testing voltage. Be careful not to take a reading until there is a steady reading, indicating that the charging process is complete. Note: The charge stored in the insulation will be discharged automatically when the test button is released. Be careful not to turn the range switch knob while the test button is pressed, or the instrument will be damaged.
Note: Make sure that the circuit under does not include components Which will be damaged by the 1000V applied. Many normal components of an installation are likely to be damaged if tested at 1000V. Examples are power factor correction capacitors, low voltage mineral insulated cables, electronic light dimmers, electronic ballasts and starters for fluorescent lamps etc… Lock Power on Feature For hands free operation a lock power on feature is incorporated in the press to test button. Set the LOCK button to lock test voltage, pressing it again will turn the tester off. Low Resistance (Continuity) Measurements 1. Set the range switch to 200Ω •))) Position 2. Connect the red test lead to the V Ω terminal and back to the COM terminal. 3. Connect the tips of the test leads to both ends of the circuit under test. Read resistance in Ω on the LCD. 4. When the impedance on circuit is below approximately 40Ω. It will indicate by a continuous beeper. AC/DC Voltage Measurements 1. Set the range switch to ACV or DCV position 2. Connect red test lead to “V Ω” terminal and black test lead to terminal “COM”. 3. Connect test prods of test leads IN PARALLEL to the circuit being measured. 4. Read the voltage value on LCD.

Power Tools & Small Appliances This test would also apply to other similar equipment that has a line cord. For double insulated power tools, the megohmmeter lead shown (See graphic on page 8) connected to the housing would be connected to some metal part of the tool (ie: chuck, blade). Note: The switch of the device must be in the “ON” position and the main power should be disconnected.
