Description
Overview
The Megger S1-1568 is a 15kV diagnostic insulation resistance tester designed for power utilities and service companies in generation, transmission, and distribution sectors. This advanced instrument combines class-leading charge current, noise rejection, and software filtering capabilities for reliable insulation resistance measurements. Built for productivity, it features rapid charge Li-ion batteries and can operate from an AC source when the battery is depleted.
Safety is integral to the design with CAT IV 1000V safety rating at altitudes up to 4000m. The dual protective case (tough outer shell with fire-retardant interior) shields the instrument from damage, while an IP-rated design prevents moisture and dust ingress. Remote control via USB enables technicians to operate the tester safely from a distance, and Bluetooth connectivity integrates with Megger's asset management software for data transfer and analysis.
