Insulation Resistance Meter Sonel MIC-15k1

Insulation Resistance Meter Sonel MIC-15k1: The Ultimate Tool for Power Object Measurements

The Insulation Resistance Meter Sonel MIC-15k1 is the ideal tool for assessing the resistance of power objects, such as single and multi-core cables, transformers, motors and generators, capacitors, switches, and other devices installed in power stations. With its ability to measure resistance up to 40TΩ with a 15000V DC voltage rate test, it is unrivaled in its class.

How to Use Insulation Resistance Meter Sonel MIC-15k1

The MIC-15k1 meter can be used to verify if a cable is under voltage of 750V, check continuity of cables, e.g. PE connections, and equipotential bonding – using the current of at least 200 mA, according to EN 61557-4. The third socket (GUARD) allows users to verify the amount of leakage current that may “escape” through faulty or contaminated insulation. The meter also features a RampTest function (12 kV per minute) and digital filters that enable its operation in environments with high interferences, such as substations.
