    4. Operating Instructions CAUTION: BE CAREFUL ABOUT HIGH VOLTAGE PRESENT ACROSS LINE AND EARTH TERMINALS OF INSTRUMENT WHEN PRESS TO TEST BUTTON IS OPERATED. MAKE SURE TO EARTH CIRCUIT UNDER TEST. ALWAYS CONNECT EARTH TERMINAL OF INSTRUMENT TO EARTH. THE BUZZER WILL KEEP SOUNDING DURING INSULATION RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT.
  • Page 8: Insulation Resistance Measurement

    With the function switch set at MΩ position for Model 3121 and 3122 or GΩ position for Model 3123, place the line probe in contact with the circuit under test and operate the press to test button.
  • Page 9: Use Of Guard Terminal

    4-5. Use of Guard Terminal Illustrated in Fig. 2 is an example of the insulation resistance measurement of an electric wire. If the line probe is simply connected to the wire conductor and the earth lead to the immersion liquid container as shown, a measurement error will be introduced as this results in the measurement of the combined resistance of insulation resistance and the surface leakage resistance at the cut end of the electric wire.
  • Page 10: 5.Battery Replacement

    (For your information, optional adaptor Model 8020 is available to allow Model 3121,3122 and 3123 to be connected to a recorder for recording insulation resistance. It provides an output signal of 1 μA/10mV DC.) 6. Cleaning Meter Cover Do not try to remove dirt on the meter cover by rubbing hard with a dry cloth.
