Value Meaning
–100 % one-pole insulation fault at L–
0 % symmetrical insulation fault
+100 % one-pole insulation fault at L+
For values of 30 % and more, the alarm assignment of the relays distinguishes between insulation faults at L+
and L–.
From the values R% and R
• Fault at conductor DC+: R
• Fault at conductor DC–: R

Functional tests of contactors in the charging station and the vehicle
If the ISOMETER® is disconnected on one pole from the monitored voltage source during a functional test of
the charging station or vehicle contactors, a false alarm may occur depending on the location of an existing
insulation fault. For insulation faults above 250 k the false alarm can be prevented by a resistor of 200 k
connected directly between the terminals L+ and L–.
