Insulation is subject to many effects which can cause it to fail, including mechanical damage, vibration, excessive heat or cold, dirt, oil, corrosive vapors, moisture or humidity. The IDEAL Digital Insulation Meter is the tool every professional needs to determine whether the insulation is performing at an effective and safe level. During installation or routine maintenance, the Digital Insulation Meter identifies capacitive, absorption and leakage current, helping to prevent problems before they result in injury or equipment failure.
