2.2 Insulation Test

Measure Thermat’s insulation resistance at each step using a megohmeter
(fig. 2.2) and record readings on the measures’ table (this la bel is avail-
able at the opening of the product).

For the warranty to be valid, fill out the measures’ table and ensure that the
10 readings have been correctly noted.

A qualified electrician must measure the system’s insulation resistance as follows:
- Use a calibrated megohmeter only;
- Measure insulation resistance at the free end of the cold lead, between the

phase conductor and ground;

- Write the reading in the measures’ table;
- This reading must be over 1,000,000 ohms;
- If the reading is under 1,000,000 ohms, stop work and contact Ouellet
