What is insulation megger draw and explain with neat diagram?

Meggar is a hand driven tool for measuring insulation resistance and earth resistance.


How can we decide a transformer failed due to earthing problem?

Meggar test or continuity test of winding with respect to body / earth will tell you the truth.


Can a meggar tester be use to measure voltage standing wave ratio in a feeder cable?

No, a megger tester cannot measure voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) in a feeder cable. A VSWR meter or network analyzer is typically used to measure VSWR, which is a way to characterize impedance matching in transmission lines. Megger testers are used to measure insulation resistance and continuity in electrical circuits.


How do you check with mega that you have good grounding on electrical circuit?

when you say "mega" I am asuming you mean meggar-ohmmeternot the lottery This instrument is not appropriate to test for good grounding Good grounding requires LOW resistanceA Meggar is used for measuring for HIGH resistances You need a MICRO-ohmmeter or ground resistance meter A company called AEMC makes nice ground testers


Identify one item that needs to be disconnected prior to carrying out insulation resistance tests?

The voltage source needs to be disconnected prior to carrying out insulation resistance tests. Disconnect any electronic devices like Variable Frequency Drives, Soft Starters etc. These devices are likely to get damaged if meggar test is done keeping them in circuit.


How much time duration is required while Meggar test is applied?

The time duration for a megger test is as long as it takes to turn the handle of the megger about five times. Voltage is generated on the first turn and if there is an insulation breakdown on the device being tested it will show instantaneously. If the megger is an electronic megger hold the generate button down for about three seconds.


How do you measure electrical insulation resistance value?

By Megger testing (meggering) of the motor any one can measure the IR of the motor. MEGGER is a device used to measure IR. Analog Megger device may generate 500 volts..it gives coil to coil or coil to body IR value...it should not be less than 2 Mega ohm, generally it should be or kept more than 5 mega ohm...thanks ...DEEPAK RAJPUT

What is the continuum of chemical use?

The continuum of chemical use refers to a spectrum ranging from no use to harmful or addictive use. It includes experimental use, recreational use, regular use, problematic use, and dependent use. Understanding this continuum can help in assessing, preventing, and treating substance use disorders.
