[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 297474, member: 1408"] I never did a 500V insulation test on IT stuff , not willing to begger it all up and foot the bill TBH . I did the IDS leads or whatever they're called . Although I'd guess with a PC you'd only megger as far as the primary on the input transformer . I did a continuity test (Low volt) from the plug top plns to the metal casing of PCs . And sensitive medical equipment ...no way TBH unless makers tell you in writing that you can wang 500V through it!!! Told you to just hire a tester every 2 years did I not ?? Does anyone ever listen to me ? :C We are told to disconnect stuff like emergency fittings and IIRC HF fluorescents shouldn't be meggered. [/QUOTE]
