COURSE OVERVIEW

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Megger testing. It covers the electrical insulation testing; the Megger type testing devices; the power system faults; the insulation resistance testing application and needs; the difference between insulation resistance test instruments; the factors affecting insulation resistance readings; the type of insulation resistance tests; the test voltage, equipment rating, AC testing and DC; the DC electrical test set and dying test; the effect of temperature humidity on insulation resistance; and the safety precaution during insulation test in electrical equipment.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the minimum value for insulation resistance and leakage in electrical power system; the provision for portable RCD test results; the Megger device for building wiring, power supply and connections; the communication cable with computers; the multi-voltage Megger insulation testers and voltage method; the testing of bushings, potheads and insulators; the Megger 1K.V and 10 K.V insulation test; the combined insulation, continuity, loop, RCD test and earth spike test; and the insights in typical fault condition and key measurements in troubleshooting techniques.
