Leakage current flows inside the insulator, but it also flows between conductors through the surface of the insulator.\r\nWhen the insulator surface is dry and clean, the leakage current is low; when the surface is humid and dirty, the leakage current tends to be high. \r\nThis affects not only the test targets but also the jig wiring that connects the testers. Therefore, it is desirable to keep the testing room dry and clean.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h4>What to do when an insulation test or self-diagnostic failure occurs during the rainy season<\/h4>\r\n<p>If humidity is thought to be the cause, perform self-diagnosis on the tester itself.\r\nIn case of NG self-diagnosis, leave the tester and testing jig in a dry environment (less than 50% humidity) for several hours.\r\n(*An environment with 69% humidity may cause sparking or other abnormalities.)\r\nIf humidity is removed, the self-diagnosis is OK.\r\n*Please conduct self-diagnosis by stand-alone.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<a class=\"c-btn c-btn--s u-mr10\" href=\"https:\/\/www.naccorporation.com\/en\/faq\/1738\">Click here to learn how to conduct a self-diagnosis.<\/a>\r\n<\/br><\/br>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3103,"menu_order":43,"template":"","meta":[],"electrical-knowledge-cat":[127],"electrical-knowledge-tag":[128],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naccorporation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/electrical-knowledge\/3102"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naccorporation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/electrical-knowledge"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naccorporation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/electrical-knowledge"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccorporation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccorporation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/electrical-knowledge\/3102\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccorporation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3103"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naccorporation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3102"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"electrical-knowledge-cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccorporation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/electrical-knowledge-cat?post=3102"},{"taxonomy":"electrical-knowledge-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naccorporation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/electrical-knowledge-tag?post=3102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
