3. Test individual leads, selecting by the

LEAD

switch.

4. To apply the high voltage to the lead safely, press the

LIFT

GROUND/ISO TEST

switch to

ISO TEST

. The current is limited with a

120 k

Ω

resistor for user protection.

5. While

ISO TEST

is energized, read the isolation current in

microamperes.

6. Perform the test using the

OUTLET

switch in both

NORMAL

and

Point-to-Point Measurements

The Analyzer provides the capability of making point-to-point leakage current,
isolation current, and resistance measurements between selected points,
otherwise known as a dual lead measurement.

Note

Additional optional accessory cables must be purchased to perform
these tests.

Leakage Current

Leakage Current between two points is also measured for permanently
installed equipment as additional verification of the integrity of the installation.
These measurements are equivalent, as the relationship between volts and
current across 1,000

Ω

is one mV per

μ

A.
