----------------------------- Click "Show more" ------------------------------------------
A tutorial on insulation testing. I cover the different test methods, an analogy on how insulation testing works, safety and the use of insulation test equipment.
In this video:
* What is insulation testing / what is megger testing / what is PAT (Portable Appliance Testing) testing?
* Electrical safety when working in a DB board / breaker box or around high energy circuits.
* Insulation test types: Proof test, Spot test, Time Resistance testing, Step Level Voltage test, Polarization Index (PI) test, Dielectric Absorption
Ratio (DAR) test.
* Leakage currents: conductive leakage current, capacitive charging leakage current and polarization absorption leakage current in a dielectric.
* Fluke 1587 Insulation Meter

    Keith, this is a topic that I was eager to learn about... You did a great job on explaining in simple terms what an Insulation Test is all about and how it can help us troubleshoot some of the electrical situations that occur on electrical systems...

    I don't care what they say about you, I am 75, & although I am not an electrician, I have learned a lot from your great instruction video., even though I wouldn't legally be allowed to carry out these tests, but this gave me a greater in depth understanding.
