KWG-ISO5 UNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The KWG-ISO5 generates a pulse-shaped measuring voltage. This is superimposed on the IT system to be monitored via terminals L1 / L2 (N) and PE. Insulation faults between the IT system and earth close the measuring circuit.
➢ Before carrying out any work on the appliance, switch it off completely and secure it against unintentional switching on again. ➢ The KWG-ISO5 may only be operated with correctly fitted protective covers. ➢ Do not operate the KWG-ISO5 in potentially explosive atmospheres.
7 - Installation and commissioning Before installation Before installation, check that: • the plug connections on the KWG-ISO5 are correctly plugged in and firmly engaged. • the mechanical assembly is correct. • the connections on the terminal board/terminal strip are made correctly (if present).

KWG generator controller. The insulation value is output via the controller CAN bus. At the same time, the insulation value can be further processed in the KWG generator controller and used to control relays, for example. Independently of this, the insulation value can also be read directly from the CAN bus of the insulation monitor.
