What is insolation resistance?
I think you mean 'insulation resistance'. This is exactly what it says it is, it is the resistance between opposite sides of an insulator or dielectric. It is in the order of megohms and, in the case of a cable, is inversely proportional to its length -i.e. the longer the cable, the lower its insulation resistance.
What is the difference between conductor resistance and insulation resistance?
The resistance of a conductor is relatively low while an insulator should have very high resistance. The former is used to transmit electricity and the latter is designed to inhibit flow of electricity.
What would the resistance of the wire if the resistance is 10 ohms be the same if it were twice as long?
The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its length, hence increasing the length twice will increase the resistance twice as well. Therefore the resistance will be 2*10 = 20 Ohms
What happens to the resistance when the length is double?
whenever the cable lengthened so is the resistance, their proportional to each other
What is the formula for calulating test voltage for Insulation Resistance Checking?
Estimated Insulation Resistance of a cable:IR = K log (D/d)K = specific insulation resistance in megohs - 1000 feet at 60 Deg. F (K = 2000 for PVC; 50,000 for EPR; 100,000 for XLP)D = diameter over insulationd = diameter under insulationIR = insulation resistance in megohms - 1000 feet. Note that IR is inversely proportional to the cable length. So don't forget to divide the calculated IR for 1000 ft. by your Cable Length (L) then multiplied by 1000.Be advised that in the real world, the measured IR may not be anywhere close to the calculated IR due to extraneous influences such as humidity, temperature, dirt, etc.
What happens to insulation resistance when decreasing cable length?

What is the relationship between insulation resistance and length of conductor in transformers?
when length is increased insulation resistance of cable is decresed i.e.,R is inversely proportional to L where R is resistance L is length

What are the two factors of a wire that will alter its resistance?
The resistance of the wire is directly proportional to the length and inversely proportional to the area of cross section. Also it depends on the material of the wire with which it is made. So three factors. Length, area of cross section, material.
What is the difference between conductor resistance and insulation resistance?
The resistance of a conductor is relatively low while an insulator should have very high resistance. The former is used to transmit electricity and the latter is designed to inhibit flow of electricity.
What change to a wire would cause its resistance to decrease?
Decreasing the length or increasing the thickness of the wire would cause its resistance to decrease.
What would not reduce resistance in the copper wire?
Increasing the length of the wire will not reduce resistance in a copper wire. In fact, resistance is directly proportional to the length of the wire according to the formula R = ρ * (L/A), where R is resistance, ρ is resistivity, L is length, and A is cross-sectional area.
What happens to the resistance of a conductor when the length of the conductor is reduced to half?
If the length of the conductor is halved, the resistance of the conductor also decreases by half. This is because resistance is directly proportional to the length of the conductor. Shortening the length leads to fewer collisions between electrons and reduces the overall resistance.
What is LV cable insulation resistance acceptance value?
The minimum acceptable insulation resistance value is calculated using the following formula: Rinsulation= (Vrated + 1 ) x (304.8 / L ) Where: Rinsulation is the minimum acceptable insulation resistance value, in mega-ohms; Vrated is the rated voltage of the cable (typically printed on the cable), in kilovolts; and L is the length of the cable, in meters (if the cable length is in feet, replace the number 304.8 with 1000).
How does resistivity vary if area is halved?
If the area is halved while keeping the length and resistivity constant, the resistance will double. This is because there is less space for the electrons to flow through, increasing the collisions encountered, hence increasing the resistance.
Does resistance increase as the cross-sectional area of the wire?
the resistance can never increase or decrease....... (you can't open the resistor and take out the something and make the resistance increase or decrease)AnswerSince resistance is directly proportional to the length of a conductor, increasing the length of a wire will increase its resistance. For example, if you double its length, you will double its resistance.
What happens to the resistance as the area increases?
Double the area means half the resistance. Resistance = resistivity times length / area. Resistivity is a property of the material only.
