Insulation Resistance Testing Prolongs Equipment Life
Testing insulation is an important way to qualify a new installation. Testing also protects and prolongs the life of electrical systems and motors.
Over the years, electrical systems are exposed to environmental factors such as dirt, grease, temperature, stress, and vibration. These conditions can lead to insulation failure, resulting in loss of production or even fires. Periodic maintenance tests can provide valuable information about the condition of insulation and help predict possible failure of the system.
