Insulation testers measure the electrical insulation strength between two conductors by applying a high voltage across them and measuring any current that flows. This is to test for “leakage” paths and insulation breakdown in electrical circuits. eg checking house wiring for leakage between active and neutral conductors or testing electrical appliances such as toasters, irons etc. This model features two resistance test ranges; 200MΩ and 2000MΩ with four test voltages on each range; 100V, 250V, 500V and 1000V. It also has auto power off to maximise battery life. The included high quality silicon test leads are designed specifically for insulation tester use and have removable alligator clip adaptors. Supplied with rubber holster and soft protective carry case.
Requires 6 x AAA or 2 x 18650 cell batteries (sold separately).
