Do YOU Know What Happens to a Circuits Insulation Resistance When the Circuit Length is Increased?

Описание: In this video I explain what happens to the overall insulation resistance of a circuit when the circuit length is increased. Often on site we test 3 time a single phase circuits for insulation resistance between line and CPC, neutral and CPC and between live conductors (line and neutral). However currently BS 7671 model forms only have 2 boxes for insulation resistance LIVE - LIVE and LIVE - EARTH and in this video I explain why testing LIVE conductor to EARTH is a more onerous test on the circuit and how the length of the conductors will have an impact on the circuits insulation resistance.
