Insulation resistance on certificate?

[Danielwareham]

What should you be filling in for Insulation resistance on a installation cert? Is >200 if the readings are all ok?

Thanks

depends what your tester reads.

Pretty much what I thought. Just looking at the OSG examples of completed certs they seem to show a lot of variation. Mine as I've had no problems so far always come up the same reading.

Thanks

yeah, some meters read >99, some >199. some >299.

As above, but I still tend to stick >200 even if I'm using another tester that goes above this... Think it's just habit. and the fact that on the draft written sheet I just write > and no value then type it up later.

We have one that goes to >2999 we use it for the offshore equipment that has to be tested >1000
