Fluke 1520 Users Manual Auto-Shut-Off The Meter automatically turns off after 15 minutes of non-use. In Lo Ohms mode, the meter turns off after 5 minutes of non-use. To turn the meter back on, turn the rotary switch to OFF, then to the desired function. Measuring Insulation Resistance W Warning • Measuring insulation resistance requires the application of potentially dangerous voltages to the circuit. This may include exposed bonded metalwork. • Before proceeding, ensure that the installation i

MegOhmMeter Using the Meter To measure insulation resistance, do the following: 1. Select the test voltage. 2. Connect the probes to the circuit to be measured. The meter automatically detects if the circuit is energized, and displays the detected voltage. W Warning A repetitive beep and the flashing high voltage symbol ( Y ) warn the user if voltage more than 30 V ac or dc is present. If the voltage is > 30 V ac or dc, remove the voltage from the acf05f.eps circuit under test before proceedi

MegOhmMeter Using the Meter Using the LOCK Function to Measure Insulation Resistance The LOCK function holds the test voltage on the probes. Use LOCK to make long duration measurements without having to push and hold the TEST button. To use the LOCK function: 1. Press the TEST button, then press the LOCK button, and then release both simultaneously. W Warning In this mode a potentially dangerous voltage is continuously applied to the probes. In this mode, if the probes are disconnected from the
