I have just started doing testing and trying to find my way with a Fluke(can't remember model number)It's a combined loop/meggar/rcd.
When I am doing insulation resistance I believe I'm supposed to test at twice nominal voltage(ie 240 volts set it to 500)
If it is clear and nothing is damaged it comes up at 500 megohms(I actually thought it was supposed to be 1 megohm with a minmum of 0.5 so how does the 500 reading relate to this?.Also it sometimes take ages for it to reach this reading(2-3 mins doesn't matter if its l-e or l-n)sometimes it takes so long I just set it to 200 just to get the test done quicker!Does anyone else have this problem?Any help is appreciated!
