5. Impostazione
Before performing any measurements, ensure the instrument is set up correctly and safely.
- Inspect the Instrument: Check the Megger ZC-7 for any visible damage. Ensure the hand crank operates smoothly.
- Ispezionare i cavi di prova: Verify that the test leads are clean, undamaged, and have intact insulation.
- Select Appropriate Test Voltage: Refer to the table below to select the correct test voltage (V) based on the measured equipment's voltage. This is crucial for accurate and safe testing.
| Measured Equipment Voltage(V) | Select Test Voltage(V) |
|---|---|
| Più di 10000 | 5000 |
| Below 10000~3000 | 2500 |
