  • Adjustable test time and configurable alarm thresholds
  • USB transfer of stored results to a computer
  • Robust IP54 enclosure for professional field use
Professional Installation Requirements
  • Use is restricted to competent, trained electrical personnel. Test circuits must be isolated, de-energised and discharged before connection. High-voltage insulating gloves and appropriate electrical safety procedures are required; do not remove leads until the test circuit has fully discharged.
Applications
  • Insulation testing of transformers and rotating machines
  • High-voltage cable insulation testing
  • Testing generators, motors and switchgear
  • Electrical circuit and surge-arrestor diagnostic testing
  • Industrial electrical maintenance and compliance verification
  • Telecommunications and power-generation equipment testing
Standards & Compliance
  • AS 61010.1: Applicable Australian safety framework for professional electrical test and measurement equipment; the manufacturer states IEC 61010-1 compliance.
  • AS/NZS 3017:2022: Relevant verification guidance for insulation-resistance testing and test-instrument checks; this is an application and verification standard rather than a stated product certification.
Environmental Benefits
  • Rechargeable lithium battery reduces reliance on disposable batteries during repeated field testing
  • USB data storage and electronic reporting can reduce paper-based test records
  • Robust housing and serviceable professional design may extend operating life and reduce replacement waste
  • Supports preventative maintenance by identifying insulation deterioration before equipment failure and premature replacement
