Brilliant video Martin. Had to laugh because since Christmas we have had trouble with our electrics tripping out the main RCD on our consumer unit every time it rained. After extensive testing by an electrician, he found that the central boiler had a low IR and that rain water was coming in through the flue and causing the electrics to become damp. Your video has explained it all. Can't thank you enough.
if that happens again turn off all your breakers then reset your rcd then one by turn back on your breakers it will show you which circuit breaker has a fault on it ok
I really enjoy watching your videos Martin , you seem to be able to get your tutorial across very calmly and very informatively , Thank you for taking the time to make these , they are a great help .
Thank you Sir, you're the best. We were using this device at work on an aircraft testing some stuff.I came here looking for some second opinion type of explanation because I didn't understand it quite well but you sir gave me everything I needed about Insulation Testers. Now I'm gonna work with it with confidence.MegaLove from 🇿🇦.
Damn this is pure GOLD. Really impressed by your teachings, thanks for sharing your knowledge! I'm probably going to be surfing your vids for some time in the future, can't wait!
Never knew there was leakage in insulation.I just though it was shorted or not shorted.Good stuff.I work on Air Conditioners and always have circuit breakers tripping.I will use a good tool for resistance testing.
Great video! Thanks for making it. I'm an Electronics Tech who was thinking about buying a Megger tester. I was just wondering if you could clear something up. At 14:56 in, you said you'd like to see an additional mega-ohm for each additional 1000V put on the line. But your board says 1000 Ohms, which is a kilo-Ohm, not a mega-ohm. So for 2000 Volts, should I see 2 mega-ohms or 1001000 ohms? Or was it supposed to be 1000 Ohms for each additional VOLT you added above 1000 Volts (making it 2 mega-ohms for 2000 volt input)? Thanks for any additional info on this you can offer. All the best! Appreciate the help!
Hi Martin, I always use 5kV insulated silicone (rubber certified) gloves when handling my HV test gear, they are a bit thick, but I don't leave anything to chance... The mininium voltage I test on is 1.5kV and I go up to 3kV. This is for insulation testing on audio and power transformers. Cheers!
How can you check insulation readings on the kettle, if you measure between live and neutral you should get a very low resistance reading and not a high or infinity reading because you are passing current through the heating element? In the case of light fixtures etc, you would remove the lamp/bulb but for appliances such as kettles, driers, etc, how do you check unless you disconnect the heating elements?
You have to flick the switch on the kettle to pass through the heating element, as long as the kettles switch is up you're not passing through the heating element.
I am also not wary happy about high voltage, I have some tricks I use, maybe you find them useful. When I have done as you demonstrates I do always put a single stranded wire from hot to neutral so if anyone turns on the power it will shorten before any power can reach me. If I can't do that, I do often run a long wire from hot to the nearest outlet with earth, again to prevent me getting a schock! Thanks for your fantastic video by the way:-)
great video, good information. here in the UK us electricians are not allowed to use a non contact volt probe or a multi-meter to test if the installation is isolated. we have to use a voltage indicator the is approved to GS38, then we have to prove the indicator with a known source or a proving unit. i personally like my fluke T150, but a lot of the other guys i know like to use the martindale test lamps.
+mjlorton hi I asked a question yesterday and have been trying to find answers on the net to it but no luck ..would you mind giving me some advice on my query please
at 22:28 you tested isolation between Line and Neutral of an appliance used to warm the water. I expect to see a SMALL resistance out of this test, since it is a heater, but you show 2.2 GOhm. Could you explain this discrepancy, please ?

Just in the final part of the video you mention about grounding the conductor to make sure it's discharged and to not upset the readings. Does you do that before or after the insulation resistance testing ? What I usually do, it's to touch the cable ends with a piece of insulated wire to discharge them.
On earth testing you should put 10 Amps thru, which will burn out (blow) a flimsy conductor. I've seen earth terminals to equipment body with just 2 of the 18 strand copper cable in actual contact. Good video thanks.
thank you very much, your videos have always been helpful. that's a fluke 1587 you are showcasing? I am bout to buy one. I was wondering what is the difference between 1587 and 1507?
I'm just 15 minutes in and I heard you on two separate occasions call 1M (mega ohm) a "thousand ohms" 1 mega ohm is 1 million ohms. 1 kilo ohm is 1,000 ohms, or am I missing something here completely?
In the UK insulation resistance should not be less than 1m Ohm as the minimum anything between 1 m and 2 m needs therther in festigation, 3 m and higher is acceptable ptible
It appears he wrote it down incorrectly based on what he is saying. What you have mentioned is spot on and I was thinking the same thing, I’m glad you brought it up
Hi great video. 1 question please. So do you actually go around the plant, factory, house or building, and disconnect all the equipment like pc's, toasters, bulbs, burglar alarms, etc. surely you will miss something, and then run the risk of blowing up something. pls could u explain
The resolution of the 1587 is only 100Kohm (0.1Mohm). Would it not be smarter to check that the earth pin on the plug is connected to the metal body of the kettle with a regular multimeter? Then you know for sure that you have a low impedance connection and not 50Kohm or something like that.
Probably the best explanation on UA-cam. Very pedagogical.
Thank you very much Professor. Your lessons are simply perfect. If I was in UK I'd surely support all of your sponsors.
This video has open my eyes in terms of the Energy Audit services my company offers. Thank you for your help.
It's one in a million video! Very educative and an up to date information everyone in the electrical field can appreciate. Thumbs up!

if that happens again turn off all your breakers then reset your rcd then one by turn back on your breakers it will show you which circuit breaker has a fault on it ok
I'm hoping the electrician cured the fault - so far so good. If it happens again I'll certainly try this. Thanks.

Very very informative video, thanks alot for posting this. Keep posting videos like this in future.
You are awesome! Thanks for the tutorial. Better than my test and tag teacher years ago!👍👍👍cheers from Australia
Thank you, excellent video, information that's vital to your health.
Good Video, as usual. Very useful tester for sure.
Great video. I had no idea about the safety precautions you should take with these types of testing meters. Thanks for the safety tips.

Hello! Very helpful video! Thanka a lot. Just a notice:
At video 15.10 you mention 1000 Ω as 1 ΜΩ. Isn't it 1 kΩ?
1 megOhm = 1000000 ohm's
eh... 1mΩ = 0.001 Ω, 1MΩ = 1.000.000 Ω, and yes, he wrote it wrong, i think he means 1M not 1k
Great explanation for educating elecrics

Great find, I just subscribed. Thank you so much very informative. Love the explanations with the visual and demonstrations.
Regarding from video 20:10, To connect + and - together. In case I select a range to 500V, if my result is >550 M ohm. What should I do?
Very good teaching much appreciated. Thanks
Thanks. Very helpful and easy to understand.

Awesome video. Thanks for doing this, Martin!
My pleasure Robert, thanks for watching. Cheers, Martin.
What a very nice tutorial video 2 thumbs up martin.
at 22:28 you tested isolation between Line and Neutral of an appliance used to warm the water. I expect to see a SMALL resistance out of this test, since it is a heater, but you show 2.2 GOhm.
Could you explain this discrepancy, please ?
Donato Greco i think the heater is thermostat is open on in off position. Meaning the switch is not colsed the heater is off.
Because it's not switched on, I think. switched on there would be almost no resistance.
Greco,..from the start of these video he is using 1587 insulation multimeter also known as MEGGER TESTER, insulation means,.. Cover of conductor
Hi John! Im just revising this nice vid!
Thank you very much sir....expect more videos from you
Great explanation
that was a very nice teaching
VERY VERY VERY GOOD VIDEO
Really useful video
VERY EDUCATIVE. THANK YOU. REGARDS
Good video with nice analogy.
At minute 14:50 1000ohm = 1Kohm not one Mohm.
20:30 What's the insulation resistance of a pair of rubber gloves? (excluding the rather expensive high voltage protection gloves)
At 1000 volts an insulation resistance tester will show 1. Ive tested rubber gloves. I don't know why but I did.
Very interesting! Great video! Thanks Martin.
Excellent video , thank you so much.
Amazing. Thank you so much
Thank u very useful for this video.
Excellent video! Really helpful!

Very useful video
thank you for that sharing ,sir,
this helped a lot .... thanks
Do you have a video explaining how to test for Double Insulated appliances? Thank you
On earth testing you should put 10 Amps thru, which will burn out (blow) a flimsy conductor. I've seen earth terminals to equipment body with just 2 of the 18 strand copper cable in actual contact. Good video thanks.
Well done
Is there an example which shows testing a wire with faulty insulation such as one damaged by a surge?
thank you very much, your videos have always been helpful. that's a fluke 1587 you are showcasing? I am bout to buy one. I was wondering what is the difference between 1587 and 1507?
thank you for sharing
good job ... keep going
What about power tools with electronic speed/torque controls? Wouldn't higher voltage destroy components?
I'm just 15 minutes in and I heard you on two separate occasions call 1M (mega ohm) a "thousand ohms" 1 mega ohm is 1 million ohms. 1 kilo ohm is 1,000 ohms, or am I missing something here completely?
In the UK insulation resistance should not be less than 1m Ohm as the minimum anything between 1 m and 2 m needs therther in festigation, 3 m and higher is acceptable ptible

Thank you !
Hi great video. 1 question please. So do you actually go around the plant, factory, house or building, and disconnect all the equipment like pc's, toasters, bulbs, burglar alarms, etc. surely you will miss something, and then run the risk of blowing up something. pls could u explain
Martin what are green light fixture suspended above your head? Halogen fixture?
No...LED Eco Zone brand on Amazon.
The resolution of the 1587 is only 100Kohm (0.1Mohm). Would it not be smarter to check that the earth pin on the plug is connected to the metal body of the kettle with a regular multimeter? Then you know for sure that you have a low impedance connection and not 50Kohm or something like that.
Great Video
What happens when doing insulation resistance test on a stove and oven heating element. Do you have to disconnect the power cord from the appliance
thanks for usefull information
I shocked myself with a Megger once. It was kinda funny.
Very Helpful
