Insulation resistance varies very little with rating. Motors of all HP, voltage and phase ratings have similar values
of insulation resistance.
Insulation resistance values above are based on readings taken with a megohmmeter with a 500V DC output.
Readings may vary using a lower voltage ohmmeter, consult factory if readings are in question.
