DC Insulation Testing
Diagnostic insulation testing today represents over a hundred years of constant development. When Sydney Evershed pioneered the first insulation tests in the late 19th century, the only measurable values were insulation at 500 volts and a basic continuity check. However, measurement techniques have continuously evolved to keep pace with new insulation technologies. From electronic design and household wiring to generators and power transmission systems, all different kinds of insulation must operate at a safe minimum value.
