Continuity Tests

Five Resistance Values indicated in BLUE
all measured against either common point indicated in BLACK.

All fixed and verified: -

  • 0,25Ω
  • 0.5Ω
  • 1OΩ
  • 2OΩ
  • 5O Ω

The most critical areas of testing for R1+R2 or simply R2 are usually within the parameters of the CalCard EXT1




Insulation Tests

Five Resistance Values indicated in RED
all measured against either common point indicated in BLACK. All tested to 1,500 Volts.

All fixed and verified: -

  • 0,5MΩ
  • 1MΩ
  • 2MΩ
  • 10MΩ
  • 20MΩ

These are all the realistic values which may be encountered during actual insulation resistance testing.

0.5M , 1M & 2M are particularly relevant to BS7671 IEE 16th and 17th Edition Wiring Regulations:

Actual Size

The Calibration Checkbox CalCard Ext 1 is really credit card size.

Approximate measurements are: -

  • Height = 55mm
  • Length = 85mm
  • Thickness = 2mm
It is not however as flexible nor as brittle as your more familiar credit cards. The CalCard EXT1 is made from layered fibre glass and is very very strong and resilient to bending cracking and breaking.
Operation

Place the Calibration Checkbox CalCard Ext 1 on a surface. Perform the confirmation tests by simply: -

  • Without removing the probes from the meter.
  • Place one probe onto either of the two "Common" pads.
  • Place the other probe onto the required resistance pad
  • Confirm, note or check the reading corresponds as expected.
