General description 3. General description The Megger ® DLRO ® 200 is an AC powered low resistance ohmmeter deigned to measure DC resistances in the low milliohms or microhms using a maximum test current of 200 Amps DC The maximum test current available is dependent upon the power supply, the resistance of the test leads and the resistance of the item being tested.
The POWER lamp will illuminate, the instrument will display the firmware version number and perform a calibration check. If this is successful the display will show “CALIBRATED”. If the check fails the display will show “NOT CALIBRATED”. DLRO 200 V1.00 COPYRIGHT...

If all memory has been filled, a message MEMORY FULL will appear and no more tests results will be stored although testing may continue without storing results. The main menu screen will also display “300 MEMORY FULL” instead of the number of stored tests. Data is stored for up to 10 years in battery backed RAM. www.megger.com DLRO®200...
A message CURRENT FLOW will appear if a current greater than approximately 10 mA is still flowing after a test is completed. This suggests that an inductive load has been accidentally tested and is still discharging. Do not disconnect the current loop while the discharge warning is showing. DLRO®200 www.megger.com...

Ideally the test specimen should be grounded during the test. If it is not grounded, noise pickup (50/60 Hz etc.) can affect accuracy and increase measurement errors by up to 1% typically. Excessive noise will cause the “EXTERNAL VOLTAGE” warning to be shown. DLRO®200 www.megger.com...
