3. Function Function 3.1 Features 3.3 Function description • Insulation monitoring in extensive unearthed power supply systems up to The insulation monitoring device ISOMETER® iso1685DP-425 continuously monitors the entire insulation resistance of an IT system during operation and triggers an alarm when AC 1000 V/DC 1500 V the value falls below a preset response value.
Function Function 3.3.1 Insulation monitoring If the EDS function is activated, the ISOMETER® starts the insulation fault location after the value has fallen below the response values R and R .

Function Function 3.5.2 Automatic self test All supply voltages are continuously monitored. The following tests are continuously car- ried out in the background: • Connection E-KE • Temperature monitoring of coupling and locating current injector A self test is automatically run at 24-hour intervals. During the automatic self test, the alarm relays K1 (11-12-14) and K2 (21-22-24) are not switched.
