The DAR and PI diagnostic (MI 3102H BT only)
Analysing the changes in the measured insulation resistance over time and calculating the
DAR
( D ielectric A bsorption R ation) and PI ( P olarization I ndex) are very useful maintenance tests of
insulating materials.
Diagnostic test is a long duration test for evaluating the quality of the insulation material under
test. The results of this test enable the decision to be made on the preventive replacement of
the insulation material.
DAR is ratio of insulation resistance values measured after 15 seconds and after 1 minute. The
DC test voltage is present during the whole period of the measurement.
