Insulation Resistance Measurement of Rubber or Plastic Insulated Wires

The insulation resistance of wires can be measured in accordance with the JIS C 3005 standard.

■ Highlights
・The insulation resistance between wire conductors can be measured with a super megohm meter.
・The SM-8220, SM-8213, and SM-8215, which have a timer function, are useful for measurement
 in accordance with the standard.

・Under water:
 Immerse a wire in grounded pure water for 1 hour or more and then apply a DC voltage of
 100 V or more between the conductor and pure water for a single core wire and between the
 conductors as well as between a conductor and pure water for a multi-core wire, and measure
 the insulation resistance within a period of time between 1 and 5 minutes.
・In air:
 Apply a DC voltage of 100 V or more between the conductors in air and measure the insulation
 resistance within a period of time between 1 and 5 minutes. However, for a metal coated wire,
 measure the insulation resistance between the conductors and between the metal coatings that
 are grounded.

 There are 2 types of insulation measurement: room temperature and high temperature
 insulation resistance measurements.
