Sequence of operations |
Comments | |
1. Visual inspection |
| |
|
- Plant has an own transformer |
|
|
- Neutral point of transformer is earthed by a fusible cut-out |
|
|
- All metallic pans that do not belong to the service circuit are connected with each other by a protective conductor |
The protective conductor must not be connected with the neutral conductor! |
2. Measuring |
| |
|
- The insulation resistance is greater than 25 ohms/volt |
|
3. Functional testing |
| |
|
- The insulation resistance is to be reduced to a value less than 25 ohms per volt |
Supervisory facility must switch off! |
