Insulation resistance: The value of the measured voltage from the measuring equipment must cor- respond to at least the rated voltage of the device to be tested against grounding, but no less than 500 V DC voltage. The measurement current must be at least 1 mA (this corresponds to a load resistance of 0.5 MΩ).
Visual inspection General During a visual inspection, the tests described below are to be carried out without further dismantling of the equipment. Safety related parts must not show any visible defects. Furthermore, defects which may present a danger dur- ing the visual inspection must be written down. Deficiencies identified that may be the cause of other hazards must be repaired immediately, otherwise further use must be restricted until the defect is recti- fied.
Welding current Lines must not be damaged or defective (do not use insulation or adhesive circuit tape to repair damage) Coupling/plug devices must not be deformed, damaged, or thermally dam- aged Strain relief devices and bend radius protection devices must be effective Lines/plugs must be suitable for their area of application and power Housing and cov- Housing parts, insulating parts, and protective covers must be present and in...
