Preparation

Warning: Ensure that the circuit under test does not include devices or components that

can be damaged by 10KVDC; such devices include power factor correction capacitors, low

voltage mineral insulated cables, electronic light dimmers, ballasts and starters for

fluorescent lamps.

Connecting the Test Leads to the meter

The Black (Earth), Red (Line), and Green (Guard) test leads connect to the meter

directly above the dot matrix display (the meter jacks are color coded). NOTE: The Green

(Guard) lead is attached to the Red lead and should be used (refer to applications section

next).

Connecting the Test Leads to the device under test

The Black (Earth) lead is connected to the conductive material. The Red (Line) and

Green (Guard) leads are connected to insulating, sheathing, and covering material as

shown in the following applications section.

380385 V1.5 3/04

Operation

Powering the meter

Press the ON button to turn the unit on. Press the OFF button to turn the unit off.

Insulation Resistance Measurements

Warning: The circuit under test must be completely de-energized and isolated before

making test connections.

1. After turning the unit on, the display will prompt the user

to select a test voltage (diagram at right).

2. Select the test voltage by pressing one of the preset

voltage buttons (1KV, 2.5KV, 5KV, 10KV) or by pressing the Voltage Adjust buttons

(500+, 500-) to step through the available test voltages in 500V steps.

3. The resistance range for the selected voltage is indicated on the dot matrix display as

shown above.

4. Press the TEST START / STOP button again.

5. The display will prompt the user to connect the leads.

Press the TEST START/STOP button to start testing.

6. The elapsed test time appears on the upper line (right

hand side) of the display. The resistance reading is shown on the upper left hand side

of the display. The lower line shows the test voltage in bargraph format (see diagram

at right).

7. The HOLD icon will appear in place of the bargraph

when the test is complete and the voltage has been

discharged.

WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE THE TEST LEADS BEFORE THE HOLD DISPLAY

APPEARS.

8. The meter automatically discharges the system at the end of the test.

9. The meter automatically powers down after 5 minutes.

The EnersaveTM Mode

EnersaveTM mode conserves battery life by performing a relatively short test (10 seconds).

The EnersaveTM mode is the default test mode. To bypass this mode and run a longer test

(100 seconds max), press and hold the TEST button for 3 seconds when starting a test.

Bargraph Voltage Display

The bargraph represents the voltage present on the test leads as it rises, soaks, and

decays. The bargraph appears on the lower left of the dot matrix display during a test.

Automatic Under/Over Range Resistance Detect

If the display shows the message “LOW MΩ”, the test should be interrupted immediately

by pressing the TEST button. This message indicates that the insulation under test has

broken down and the meter is trying to inject a high potential onto a short circuit. If ‘HIGH’

appears, it is likely that the test configuration is open. Check the test set-up then test

again.

Elapsed Timer

The test duration is indicated on the display. This is particularly useful in determining

whether an insulating material under test will break down in a given amount of time.

Manual Test STOP

To stop a test in progress, press the TEST button. The test will immediately end and the

system will automatically discharge.

Automatic Test STOP

When in the default EnersaveTM mode, the test automatically stops after approx. 10

seconds. The test automatically stops after approx. 100 seconds if the meter is not in the

EnersaveTM mode.

Live Circuit Warning

If the test leads are connected to a live circuit (approx. 500V), a warning beeper will sound

and the meter will display “Live Warning…Circuit Live…”. In this case, correct the problem

and retest.

Automatic Discharge

At the end of a test, the meter automatically discharges the high voltage. The automatic

discharge status is reflected on the display. During discharge the beeper will sound and,

when completely discharged, the HOLD icon appears on the display.

Applications

Measuring Power Tools and Small Appliances

For small appliances, connect the Black (EARTH) lead to conductors and the Red (LINE)

lead to insulating material.

For single or double insulated power tools, one lead should be connected to the device’s

chuck, blade, etc. and the other lead to one of the AC power cord conductors (test both

conductors in turn). Refer to the power tool application diagram below.

Testing Motors

AC Motors

Disconnect the motor from the line by:

a. Disconnecting the wires from the

motor terminals or

b. Opening the main switch

If the main switch is opened, and the

motor also has a motor-starter, then

the starter must be held in the ON position. With the main switch opened, 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 indicated, the motor and other

components should be checked individually. If the motor is disconnected at the motor

terminals, connect the RED lead to the grounded motor housing and the BLACK lead to

one of the motor leads.

Plug For 2 or 3 prong plugs, connect the

RED lead to one conductor at a time

Connect the BLACK

lead to the chuck

Connect RED lead

to grounded housing

Connect BLACK lead

to the motor leads

380385 V1.5 3/04

DC Motors

1. Disconnect the motor from the line.

2. To test the brush rigging, field coils and armature, connect the RED lead to the

grounded motor housing and the BLACK lead to the brush on the commutator.

3. If the resistance measurement indicates a weakness, raise the brushes off of the

commutator and separately test the armature, field coils and brush rigging by

connecting one lead to each individually, leaving the other connected to the grounded

motor housing. This also applies to DC Generators.

Testing Single Conductor Cables

1. Completely disconnect the cable

under test from its source and

destination.

2. Connect the test leads to the

cable as shown at right.

Testing Multi Conductor Cables

1. Completely disconnect the cable under test from its source and destination.

2. Refer to the diagrams below for three possible tests.

Transformer Testing

Transformer tests are performed with the transformer completely disconnected from the

line and the load. Note that the case ground should not be removed.

The five tests listed below will completely test a single-phase transformer. Note that at

least 1 minute should be allowed

between each test.

1. High voltage winding to low voltage

winding and ground

2. Low voltage winding to high

3. High voltage winding to low voltage
