Limit values for the winding insulation resistance
The following table lists the measuring voltage and limit values for the insulation resistance R
These values correspond to recommendations provided in IEC 60034-27-4.

The values apply for the complete winding to ground. Twice the minimum values apply to the
measurement of individual assemblies.
• Dry, new windings have an insulation resistance of between 100 ... 2000 MΩ, or possibly
even higher values. An insulation resistance value close to the minimum value could be due
to moisture and/or dirt accumulation. The size of the winding, the rated voltage and other
characteristics influence the insulation resistance, and may need to be taken into account
when determining measures.
• Over its operating lifetime, the motor winding insulation resistance can drop due to ambient
and operational influences.
