Insulation and Continuity Testers

USER MANUAL

GSAFETY WARNINGS

nSafety Warnings and Precautions must be read and understood before the instrument is used. They must be observed during use.

nThe circuit under test must be switched off, de-energised and isolated before test connections are made when carrying out insulation and continuity

tests.

nCircuit connections and exposed metalwork of an installation or equipment under test must not be touched.

nThe live circuit warning and automatic discharge are additional safety features which may fail and therefore safe working practices must be

observed.

nThe voltage function will only work if the instrument is functional and switched on.

nAfter insulation tests, capacitive circuits must be allowed to discharge before disconnecting test leads.

nThe instrument should not be used if any part of it is damaged.

nTest leads, probes and crocodile clips must be in good order, clean and with no broken or cracked insulation.

nEnsure that hands remain behind guards of probes/clips when testing.

nNational Safety Authorities may recommend the use of fused test leads when measuring voltage on high-energy systems.

nReplacement fuses must be of the correct type and rating. Failure to fit the correctly rated fuse may result in a safety hazard and may cause damage to

the instrument in the event of an overload.

nThe battery cover must be in place whilst conducting tests.

n The MIT310A is designed for use only in a controlled electromagnetic environment.

Users of this equipment and/or their employers are reminded that National Health and Safety Legislation requires them to carry out valid risk assessments of

all electrical work so as to identify potential sources of electrical danger and risk of electrical injury such as inadvertent short circuits. Where the assessments

show that the risk is significant then the use of fused test leads may be appropriate.

NOTE

THE INSTRUMENT MUST ONLY BE USED BY SUITABLY TRAINED AND COMPETENT PERSONS.

GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Safety note:

If a voltage greater than 25 V appears on the circuit under test the

instrument will default to a voltage measurement and display the

supply voltage.

On supply voltages over 50 V the instrument will prevent the

test button from performing an insulation test, protecting your

instrument from damage.

General functions

Voltage Testing on High Energy Systems

Use extreme care when using or measuring voltages above 30 V,

particularly in high energy systems. Fused test leads are available as

optional accessories for local situations where increased protection is

required. See accessories section.

Tests lock

The LOCK Lindicates when an INSULATION test range is locked ON.

It is activated by holding down the [TEST] button, and pressing the LOCK

Lbutton.

Note: See analogue section for MIT310A

Warning: Hazardous voltages can exist on the insulation test range all the

time the [TEST] button is locked down.

Voltage warning (MIT300 only)

If a voltage exists on the circuit under test, the instrument will emit a

warning beep.

If a voltage greater than 50 V exists, testing will be automatically

inhibited.

Batteries

The Megger MIT300 series of instruments are supplied with batteries

fitted. When batteries become exhausted, refer to page 18, battery

replacement.

Warning: Do not switch the instrument on with the battery cover

removed.

Preliminary test lead check

Functional verification

1. Before each use of the instrument visually inspect the test leads, prods

and crocodile clips to confirm that their condition is good, with no

damaged or broken insulation.

2. Check continuity of the test leads by firmly shorting the leads together

and read the test lead resistance measurement directly from the display,

which should be less than 1.0 Ω.

Refer to page 10 for operation guide.

3. Supply voltage

Using an approved method, ensure the circuit to be tested has been

fully disconnected from the supply prior to using the instrument.

PREPARATIONS FOR USE (ALL INSTRUMENTS)

Voltage warning (MIT310A only)

If a voltage exists on the circuit under test the voltmeter will indicate this.

However voltages under 50 V will be displayed but may be difficult to read

from the analogue display.

Default voltmeter (MIT310, MIT320 and MIT330)

The default voltmeter automatically operates if a voltage is present across

the test probes of greater than 25 V.

In Volts range the meter operates at greater than 2 V.

If the voltage exceeds 50 V any further testing is inhibited for safety.

The voltage will be displayed.

Backlight operation (MIT320 and MIT330 only)

Both the display and test ranges are backlit. The backlight function can be

selected at any time while the instrument is switched on by pressing the

BACKLIGHT Jbutton.

The backlight function will switch off automatically 20 seconds after the

instrument has finished testing.

Display warning symbols

GRefer to user manual

Any time the warning triangle is displayed the operator should refer to

the user manual for further information.

LRange lock

Displayed at any time the [TEST] button is locked in the on position.

zLead nulled

Indicates that the test lead resistance has been removed from the test

result.

Battery condition indication. Refer to page 18.

fFuse blown indicator, appears when an instrument fuse has failed.

Refer to page 19.

Test lead connection

The Red/Black test lead set should be connected to the appropriate

sockets on the rear of the instrument marked + and – respectively.

Test probes and crocodile clips are supplied for connection to the circuit

under test.

Fused test leads are available as an optional accessory, please refer to

accessories list at the end of this document.

Application

Do NOT connect this instrument to conductors that exceed the rated

voltage with respect to each other or with respect to earth.

This instrument may be connected to CAT III conductors up to 600 V AC,

or CAT IV conductors up to 300V AC.

See the safety warnings for the definition of CAT ratings.

To maintain user safety and ensure accurate measurements, only use the

test leads supplied by Megger Limited.

4. The display shows the resistance value. (Maximum 99,9 Ω)

5. Disconnect the test probes to terminate the test.

6. On completion of testing switch to the [OFF] position. Alternatively auto

shut off operates after a period of instrument inactivity.

All continuity measurements are AUTO ranging from 0.00 Ω to 100 Ω on

Digital/analogue scale).

The MIT310A has manual range selection to 2 kΩ.

From 0.00 Ω to 10 Ω test current is greater than 200 mA. From 10 Ω to

100 Ω test current is greater than 20 mA. (See page 15 for MIT310A)

Test lead Null

(See page 14 for MIT310A)

Before using the continuity range or buzzer range for the first time, the test

lead resistance should be ‘zeroed out’. This ensures any measurement does

not include the resistance of the test leads.

1. Connect the test leads to the instrument and firmly short both leads

together.

2. Wait for the reading to stabilise and press the [TEST] button.

3. Display of the zconfirms test leads zeroing. The display

should be 0.00 Ω.

Note: Lead zeroing is retained when the instrument is switched off, or auto

shut-off operates.

To remove the ‘lead zero’ press the [TEST] button again.

Continuity test (MIT300, 310,320 and 330)

(See page 15 for MIT310A)

To make a continuity measurement:

1. Turn the instrument ‘On’ by selecting the continuity Ω range.

2. If required, zero test lead resistance, see test lead null (above).

3. Connect the test probes to the isolated circuit under test. The test will

start automatically.
