Some Class I appliances (eg electric fans, vacuum cleaners) may not have any 
exposed  metal  to  connect  the  test  clip  to.  If  this  is  the  case,  then  use  the 
Class I plastic button The Insulation Resistance will be tested and a Pass or 
Fail will be displayed.  
 
Once the testing is complete, record the results on the Test Record.
