3. The minimum acceptable value of insulation resistance for any test is 0.5 M
ohm for LV systems and 0.25 M ohm for SELV and PELV systems.
5. The method of testing requires the connection of all three phases and
neutral bar to Earth using temporary Earth wires.
6. The test measures the insulation resistance of each conductor wire with all
other conductors connected to Earth. The test is done with all phase wires,
all neutral wires and all Earth wires and the values recorded in installation
testing report, refer to Appendix A20(d).
7. This test method checks the segregation of the conductor from all other
wires. Care is to be taken when testing the insulation resistance of the Earth
connections to ensure that there is no continuity between the equipment
and containment systems.
