Analog 5 kV Insulation Tester
DESCRIPTION
The BM15 & MJ15 are compact 5 kV
insulation testers. They are very
simple to use and provide a quick and
accurate reading of insulation resis-
tance. The instruments use an analog
display with a maximum reading of 20
G .
A voltage range of four test voltages
enables measurement of ac or dc con-
ductor potential. The four test volt-
ages available are 500 V, 1 kV, 2.5 kV
and 5 kV. The instruments are sup-
plied with a locking or non-locking test
button. The locking button allows
hands-free testing, the non-locking
button is recommended to prevent ac-
cidental mis-use and injury.
A bezel allows a scale plate overlay to
be added with PASS/FAIL bands for
GO/NOGO testing. This is particularly
useful for less experienced users and
enables a rapid decision to be made.
The new instruments have a choice of
power source, eight x LR6 (AA) alka-
line cells or the MJ15 offers an addi-
tional hand cranked generator. If the
test button is pressed the MJ15 uses
battery power. Otherwise the crank
handle is turned to save battery power
or for use when the batteries are un-
available.
Both units are built into a rugged case
designed for outdoor use. The
instruments are also supplied with a

INTERNATIONAL
soft carrying case, a test lead set, test
record cards and batteries.
Safety terminals suitable for locking
connectors are used for connection to
the test piece. An automatic discharge
circuit eliminates the voltage on
capacitive loads after a test. The de-
caying voltage can also be viewed on
the scale.
Fused test leads are available as an
option for voltage measurement. The
instruments meet the IEC1010 safety
specification and EMC specifications
and are fully CE marked.
APPLICATIONS
Insulation is important for the safety
of all electrical systems, providing a
barrier to hazardous live conductors.
Insulation can deteriorate due to the
affects of moisture, sunlight and heat.
A reduction in the value of insulation
resistance can lead to a potentially
dangerous situation caused by the
dangers of electric shock, or arcing
causing fire. If insulation resistance is
regularly monitored unusually low
values can be investigated before they
cause danger, or inconvenience and
cost due to equipment downtime for
repairs.
The BM15 & MJ15 are general purpose,
5 kV insulation testers for electrical
contractors and engineers who test
machinery, transformers, switchgear,
cables, etc.
This BM15 and MJ15 are used by:
• Electrical Contractors
• Maintenance Engineers
• Telecommunications Engineers
• Gas and Water Utilities
• Railway Companies
• Cable Manufacturers
• Mining Companies
