2.2 Insulation tests
Using a megohmmeter, measure the insulation resistance of OWC-R products at each stage of the installation
and note the values in the measurement chart on the electrical panel label available in the envelope provided
with the product.
Dangerous test. For the warranty to be applicable,
you must fill the measurement chart and ensure that all
8 measurements have been correctly recorded.
The system’s insulation resistance must be determined
by a certified electrician using the following method:
- With a calibrated megohmmeter only.
- Measure the insulation resistance at the loose end of the cold lead
between the phase conductor and the grounding.
- Record the value measured in the measurement chart.
- The value must be superior to 1,000,000 ohms.
- If the value is inferior to 1,000,000 ohms, postpone the work
and contact Ouellet Canada’s specialists at 1 800 463-7043.
