Model 5060 performing insulation test on a generator.
Insulation can be subject to slow, gradual
degradation over long periods of time, as well
as sudden damage. The effects of moisture,
dirt, corrosion, chemical penetration and even
vibration can cause degradation of insulation.
The effects of this degradation can easily be
documented by using the automatic
Polarization Index test feature standard on all
models. Comparing the results over time will
provide valuable information for preventative
maintenance measures.
