display still be in the status of monitoring the insulation voltage for
the tested .
e)Subsequently, discharge the balance insulation voltage of the tested

Turning the function switch o r p r e s s t h e EXIT button
can exit automatically from testing status during the process。

POWER TOOLS AND AMALL APPLIANCES

This test would also apply to other similar equipment that has a line
cord. For double insulated power tools, the megohmmeter lead shown
connected to the housing would be connected to some metal part lf
the tool(e..g chuck,blade).
Note:The switch of the device must be in the ―ON‖position and the
main power should be disconnected.

MOTORS
AC-Disconnect the motor from the line by disconnecting the wires at
the motor terminals or by opening the main switch. If the main switch
is used and the motor also has a starter then the starter must be held,
by some means, in the ―ON‖ position. In the latter case, the measured
resistance will include the resistance of the motor, wire and all other
components between the motor and the main switch. If a weakness is
in dicated, the motor and other components should be checked

16
individually. If the motor is disconnected at the motor terminals,
connect one megohmmeter lead to the grounded motor housing and
the other lead to One of the motor leads. DC-Disconnect the motor
from the line. To test the brush rigging,field coils and armature connect
one megohmmeter lead to the grounded motor housing and the other
lead to the brush on the commutator. If the resistance measurement
indicates a weakness,raise the brushes off the commutator and
separately test the armature, field coils and brush rigging by
connecting one megohmmeter lead to each of them individually,
leaving the other connected to the grounded motor housing. The
above also applies to DC Gemerators.

17
CABLES
Disconnect the cable from the line. Also disconnect opposite end to
avoid errors due to leakage from other equipment. Check each
conductor to ground and /or lead sheath by connecting one
megohmmeter lead to a ground and /or lead sheather and the other
megohmmeter lead to each of the conductors in turn. Check insulation
resistance between conductors by connecting megohmmeter leads to
conductors in pairs.

18

Note: Accuracy specifications consist of two elements:
 (% reading) – This is the accuracy of the measurement circuit.
 (+ digits) – This is the accuracy of the analog to digital converter.

Enclosure Double molded, waterproof

Shock (Drop Test) 6.5 feet (2 meters)
Diode Test Test current of 0.9mA maximum, open
circuit voltage 2.8V DC typical
Continuity Check Audible signal will sound if the resistance is
less than 35 (approx.), test current
<0.35mA
PEAK Captures peaks >1ms

Input Impedance >10MΩ VDC & >9MΩ VAC
AC Response True rms
AC True RMS: The term stands for ―Root-Mean-Square,‖
which represents the method of calculation
of the voltage or current value. Average
responding multimeters are calibrated to
read correctly only on sine waves and they
will read inaccurately on non-sine wave or
distorted signals. True rms meters read
accurately on either type of signal.
ACV Bandwidth 50Hz to 1000Hz
Crest Factor ≤3 at full scale up to 500V, decreasing
linearly to ≤1.5 at 1000V
Display 40,000 count backlit liquid crystal with
bargraph
