6 Tips for effective insulation testing
1
Disconnect any electronic devices like motor drives, PLC’s, transmitters, etc. before performing insulation testing. Electronics can be damaged by applying higher than normal voltage.
2
The effect of temperature should be considered – it is recommended that tests be performed at a standard conductor temperature of 20 °C (68 °F) or that a temperature baseline is established while compensating future readings by using a DMM with a probe or an infrared thermometer.
3
Select a test voltage appropriate for the insulation being tested. The objective is to stress the insulation but not to over-stress it. When in doubt, use a lower test voltage. It’s usually appropriate to test insulation at twice the voltage it normally sees: for example 460 V to 600 V rated equipment is often tested at 1000 V.
4
When using an insulation tester, leave the leads connected when you stop the test. The insulation tester can discharge any residual test voltage.
5
Conductors that are close to each other have a normal capacitance. This will cause an insulation resistance reading to start low and increase steadily until it stabilizes. This type of increase is normal, but if the reading jumps violently down and up again this indicates arcing.
6
Although the current is tightly limited, an insulation tester can generate sparks and minor but painful burns. The unexpected surprise can cause an operator to jerk away. As always, work away from live systems and use safe work practices when working overhead.
Insulation Resistance Testing Solutions
Using Fluke Thermal Imaging to Troubleshoot Motors & Drives
Infrared cameras, also called thermal imagers, are useful for troubleshooting motor problems as well as for monitoring motor condition for preventative maintenance in power generation, manufacturing and commercial plants. Thermal images of motors reveal their operating condition as indicated by surface temperature. Such condition monitoring is important as a way to avert many unexpected motor malfunctions in systems that are critical to manufacturing. The onset of motor failures can often be detected by a variety of techniques, including vibration, ultrasound and thermal imaging.
In this article, we cover why use thermal imaging and what to scan, as well as some notes on what to look for, including shaft misalignment.

Why you need the Fluke 1587 FC Insulation Multimeter
Insulation multimeters are an integrated tool for maintaining and troubleshooting motor systems, electrical distribution, and production equipment. Carrying the Fluke 1587 FC will enable you to test insulation more often, making your maintenance tests more thorough and your troubleshooting more effective.
This multimeter combines a TRMS digital multimeter and a digital insulation tester in a single, compact unit. For this reason, it is capable of measuring a higher resistance than the average multimeter; allowing you to know when a cable is leaking under high voltage – see 0:25.
Its compatibility with Fluke Connect® makes it even more of an asset in your toolbox! Find out why at 0:58.
