NOTE: The input current may be a depolarization current resulting from an earlier insulation measurement. It is recommended to start a new DAR and PI measure-ment after the current has dropped to a negligible value (on the order of 100pA) to avoid variations on these measurements.

NOTE: This adjustment provides the best compromise between the measure-ment build-up time and the presence of external interference voltages (§ 4.2).
Ifnointerferencevoltageispresent,choose0.03toobtainarapidmeasurementbuild-uptime.
Example: If an insulation measurement is performed at a test voltage of 5000V and the limit is set to 0.10, it will be possible to perform a correct measurement with the presence of an external interference voltage ≤500V, to the detriment of a longer measurement build-up time.

• Connecttheinstrumenttotheinsulatortobetested.• Start the measurement using the START/STOP button and read the
results.
WARNING: If an external voltage is present that is greater than the thresholds described in § 4.2, then measurement is prohibited.

To be able to save your measurements, you will need to do the following:SettheinstrumenttoSET-UPandpresstheMEMbutton(thedisplayshows“MEMAllclr”).PresstheMEMbuttonfor2s(thedisplayshows“MEMALLFrEE”).Mea-surementsarenowreadytobesaved.
First Function - MEM (Save)Results can be recorded in the instrument’s memory and stored along withaddressesdefinedbyanobjectnumber(OBJ)andatestnumber(TEST).Anobjectrepresentsa‘box’intowhichwecanplace99tests.Thus,anobjectcanrepresentamachineoraninstallationuponwhichacertainnumberofmeasure-ments(insulation,resistanceandcontinuity)arecarriedout.
