Ground/Insulation Resistance Tester
LQ-5kV Megohmmeter: Heavy-Duty Insulation Testing for Power Infrastructure
The LQ-5kV Megohmmeter combines 10mA output current and 0.1-5kV adjustable voltage to test insulation resistance in 500kV substations, power plants, and underground cables. Its 2mA (50Hz) anti-interference capability enables accurate measurements without disconnecting live systems.

Time and alarm functions | maximum value of stopwatch is 19 minutes and 59 seconds. 20 minutes for a cycle. The stopwatch will tell the time at these time points: 15 seconds, 60 seconds and every 60 seconds.When telling time, resistance readings hold for 3 seconds.If the measured resistance is below the lower limit of range, the reading is invalid and the instrument will continuously sound to give an alarm. |
Display | three and a half bits LCD digital meter (three), respectively show test voltage, test resistance, test time. |
Power supply | DC: rechargeable lithium battery, DC15V power supply. With AC (50 / 60Hz) special adapter access port to charge the battery. |
Operating Conditions | Temperature:-20℃~+40℃;Relative humidity:20%~90% |
Dimensions | 315×240×180mm3 |
Weight | 5.5kg |
