Isolation Resistance Measurement (Iso.) - Intec ARGUS 300 Manual

3 Copper tests

3.1.5 Isolation resistance measurement (Iso.)

Isolation resistance measurement can indicate damage to cable isolation, moisture
penetration or oxidised contact points on the line.
A voltage check is performed before the measurement in which the voltage
limits given in the table (see page 7) may not be exceeded.
See the chapter Technical data page 9 for information on measuring ranges, resolutions
and accuracies of isolation resistance measurement.
Isolation resistance measurement settings
Before the measurement, the selected test parameters are displayed.
- Measuring voltage (in this example 105 V)
- Measuring current (in this example max. 1.05 mA)
- Polarity (in this example Automatic, to 1GΩ)
After selecting the "Menu" softkey, the following settings can be made:
- Polarity
- Measuring range
- Measuring voltage
- Susceptibility
- Remote kit command
- Remote kit
- Information bell
The configuration options can vary depending on the selected sockets.
