Insulation

Resistance

Measure-

ment

Resistance

from main

circuit to

ground

Measure insulation

resistance between

phases, between

electrodes, and

between circuits and

ground. Megger test

at 1000V.

Resistance should be

50M

Ω

or greater.

Resistance

from control

circuits to

ground

Measure insulation

resistance between

circuits and ground.

Megger test at

500V.

Resistance should be

Ω

or greater.

If the insulation

resistance is low,

wipe off the vacuum

interrupter and other

insulation surfaces

with a clean dry

cloth and then

repeat the test. If

necessary, replace

faulty parts.
