Insulation resistance test:
This test is used to find the insulation resistance of motor for 1 min or 10 min through high voltage insulation tester. By this we can find the insulation level.
Polarization index:
This is the ratio between insulation resistance for 10 min to insulation resistance for 1 min.
insulation resistance can be measured by means of megger, with built in d.c generator. It is measured between the conductor and the earth. earth resistance can be measured by means of earth resistance tester. For good effective earthing, th earth resistance should be of order 0.5 ohm
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.
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.
The primary difference between THW and THWN insulation types lies in their moisture resistance. THW (Thermoplastic Heat and Water-resistant) insulation is suitable for use in dry and wet locations but is not rated for exposure to oil or moisture. In contrast, THWN (Thermoplastic Heat and Water-resistant Nylon-coated) insulation is designed to withstand moisture and can also be used in wet locations, making it more versatile for outdoor and damp environments. Additionally, THWN insulation has a nylon coating that provides added protection against heat, abrasion, and chemicals.
In regards to the capacity of a conductor, the rating is in amperage. Voltage is an insulation factor which refers to the amount of voltage that can be applied to an insulated conductor before the insulation breaks down. A break down of insulation is the main factor of creating a short circuit condition.
The electrical polarization index (PI) test is a type of insulation resistance test used to assess the condition of insulation in electrical equipment. It involves measuring the resistance of the insulation between conductors at different voltages to determine if the insulation is deteriorating. A higher PI value indicates better insulation quality, while a low PI value may signal insulation breakdown or moisture contamination.
Resistor is a current a insulator is a not conductive and conductors can conduct.

A continuity test checks to ensure that there is no break in the conductors. An insulation test checks to ensure that the insulation is sound.
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
In the context of light propagation, the difference between p and s polarization lies in the orientation of the electric field. P polarization has the electric field oscillating parallel to the plane of incidence, while s polarization has the electric field oscillating perpendicular to the plane of incidence. These orientations affect how light interacts with surfaces and materials.
The higher the R-value, the better the insulation. Therefore, a material with an R38 insulation value will have less heat loss compared to a material with an R30 insulation value since it provides greater resistance to heat flow.
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.
Only the spelling, they are two spellings for the same thing.

The difference is the type of insulation on the conductors. Type AC used a thermoset insulation , Type ACT is a theromplactic insulation.
