This user manual covers the operation, configuration, and technical specifications of the Sonel MIC-15k1 insulation resistance meter.
The Sonel MIC-15k1 is a modern digital measuring instrument designed to measure insulation resistance in electrical systems. It features test voltages ranging from 50 V up to 15 kV and can measure resistance values up to 40 TΩ. The device supports various measurement modes, including double-lead, three-lead, surface/volume resistance (Sr), increasing voltage (SV), ramp test (RT), dielectric discharge (DD), and partial discharge indicators.
| Test voltages | 50 V, 100 V, 250 V, 500 V, 1000 V, 2500 V, 5000 V, 10000 V and 15000 V or adjustable within the range of 50...15000 V |
|---|---|
| Measurement range | up to 40 TΩ |
| Accuracy (R ISO ≥ 1000*U N) | 0…+5% or 0…+10% from the set value |
| Frequency range | 45...65 Hz |
The meter must be operated only by appropriately qualified personnel with relevant certificates authorising them to perform works on electric systems.
You must ensure that the tested object is disconnected from the power supply before starting the measurement.
It indicates incorrect operation; if this repeats after restarting, it suggests the meter is damaged.
