    Simple measurement of live and neutral resistance to ground with a multimeter. If it is too low, there is a possibility of leakage.

    Precautions for the use of multimeters.

    1) Before using the multimeter, "mechanical zeroing" should be carried out, that is, when there is no measured electricity, the multimeter pointer should be pointed at the position of zero voltage or zero current.

    2) In the process of using the multimeter, do not touch the metal part of the meter pen with your hands, so that on the one hand, you can ensure the accuracy of the measurement, and on the other hand, you can also ensure personal safety.

    3) When measuring a certain amount of electricity, it is not possible to shift gears at the same time as the measurement, especially when measuring high voltage or high current.

    More attention should be paid to. Otherwise, the multimeter will be destroyed. If you need to change gears, you should disconnect the watch pen first, and then go to measure after changing gears.

    4) When the multimeter is in use, it must be placed horizontally to avoid errors. At the same time, care should be taken to avoid the influence of external magnetic fields on the multimeter.

    5) After the multimeter is used, the transfer switch should be placed in the maximum gear of AC voltage. If it is not used for a long time, the battery inside the multimeter should also be taken out to avoid the battery from corroding other devices in the meter.

    The multimeter can only check whether there is a short circuit, and many leakages are caused by insufficient withstand voltage, so you need to use a shake meter to check.

    First of all, determine whether there is indeed a leakage. The insulation resistance of the limb can be measured with the R 10k step of the analog multimeter, or the digital multimeter can be placed in the AC current gear (which is equivalent to an ammeter at this time), connected in series on the main switch, and all switches can be switched on and all loads (including bulbs) can be removed. If there is an electric current, it means that there is a leakage phenomenon.

    Once the line leakage is determined, you can proceed with the inspection as follows:

    1.Determine whether it is leakage between the phase line and the neutral line, the leakage between the historical beam or the phase line and the earth, or both. The method is to cut off the zero line, if the ammeter indication is unchanged, it is the phase line and the earth leakage; If the ammeter indicates zero, it is a leakage between the phase line and the neutral line; If the indication of the ammeter becomes smaller but not zero, it means that there is leakage between the phase line and the neutral line, and between the phase line and the earth.

    2.Determine the leakage range. Remove the shunt fuse or pull the circuit breaker, if the ammeter indication remains unchanged, it means that the bus leakage; If the ammeter indication is zero, it is shunt leakage; If the indication of the ammeter becomes smaller but not zero, it indicates that there is leakage on the bus and shunt.

    3.Find out the leakage point. After the above-mentioned inspection, then disconnect the switch of this line lamp in turn, when disconnecting a switch, the ammeter indicates to return to zero, then this branch line leakage; If it becomes smaller, it means that in addition to the leakage of this branch line, there is leakage elsewhere; If the ammeter indication remains unchanged after all lamp switches are disconnected, it means that the section of the trunk is leaking.

    By narrowing down the scope of the accident in turn, you can further check whether there is any leakage at the joints of the line and the place where the conductor passes through the wall. After finding the leakage point, the leakage fault should be eliminated in time. The load side starts to take the lead to the front end step by step to detect, and you can judge whether the work is caused by the line or the component.

    After eliminating the short-circuit fault point, install the qualified fuse and then send power.

    Lighting circuit short circuit, open circuit, leakage is the most common fault, only we carry out specific measurement and analysis, in order to accurately find out the fault point, determine the nature of the fault, and take effective measures to eliminate the fault as soon as possible.

    1. You can first use a voltage tester to measure the phase of the live wire, disconnect the total power supply, and then cut off all the loads and unplug the switch, use the r*1k file of the multimeter, or use the r*10k file to measure the resistance of the live wire to the ground, if necessary, you can measure it in sections, from the middle of the line or at the place, until you find out the grounding point, generally look at the first ** there is a broken skin or joint, these places have more problems.

    2. You can also insert the multimeter connector into the corresponding binding post to measure the amount of AC current, and then use a pen to measure the zero line or ground wire, and the other pen to measure the place where you suspect leakage, and look at the multimeter number, if it is 0, say that there is no leakage here, no voltage, if it is 220 or other voltage indicators that exceed 36V, they are all leakage, indicating that it is not safe here.

    3. Determine whether it is leakage between the phase line and the neutral line, or between the phase wire and the earth, or both, by cutting off the zero line, if the ammeter indication remains unchanged, it is the phase line and the earth leakage; If the ammeter indication is zero, it is leakage between the phase line and the neutral line, and if the ammeter indication becomes small but not zero, it means that there is leakage between the phase line and the neutral line, and between the phase line and the earth.

    Detect the leakage of the circuit with a multimeter:

    1. First of all, you need to turn off the power supply at home, if there are some electrical appliances with relatively large power and the source is on, you should also unplug the socket, so that it will not affect the test results.

    2. Adjust the gear of the multimeter, to adjust it to the resistance gear, and then adjust it to the correct range, generally to adjust to more than 200 megaohms, first put the watch pen of the multimeter on the wire, and the other watch pen should touch the ground or directly contact the wall, but it is best to directly contact the grounding wire.

    3. Carefully observe the display screen of the multimeter, if there is a number, then it is the insulation resistance value of this wire.

    4. If the insulation resistance value is megaohm, it means that the wire is unqualified, because its insulation is relatively poor, and there will be the problem of leakage.

    5. If the measured value reaches the megaohm, it means that the wire does not have a rising state problem, the insulation value is within the normal range, and there is no leakage problem. After that, you can use the same method to measure other wires, one by one.

    Hello:——1. The multimeter can measure voltage, current, and resistance, and is also called a three-purpose meter. Digital multimeters have relatively high sensitivity and high internal resistance, but it is inaccurate to measure the leakage (insulation resistance) of strong electrical lines.

    2. The leakage detection (insulation resistance) of the indoor power supply circuit requires a special instrument - a shake meter to measure, which can measure and simulate the insulation resistance in the case of real power supply, which is very accurate and is a common special testing tool for electricians.

    3. The power supply voltage of our indoor circuit is 220V, and a 500V shake meter should be used to "shake the test". The insulation resistance of the indoor circuit is greater than 2m.

    Q: Sometimes there is leakage, sometimes there is no leakage.

    1. All the multimeters I have come into contact with generally have the following functions:

    1. On-off test (buzzer, resistance).

    2. Resistance test.

    3. Current test (suitable for small electrical appliances, which should be measured by electrical appliances) 4. Voltage test (AC, DC).

    5. Some meters can measure some tubes (with pins), but I haven't used them.

    When you say leakage, I usually use a shake meter or a hanging air to open the leakage to protect the direct power transmission. With a multimeter, sometimes the thread threaded in the metal pipe can be measured. But this is rare.

    The current of the two wires is measured separately at the output of the switch, and if their difference is not zero, there will be leakage. Of course, it is more convenient to use a clamp ammeter, which is often used by meter inspectors in the power department to check for theft.

The bad part is the transformer, the transformer in the circuit can be used for the audio output transformer for transistor radio, the secondary is used as the primary of the step-up transformer, the tap in the middle of the primary is not used, and the taps at both ends are used as the secondary of the step-up transformer. If you can't find a suitable transformer, you can also use the silicon steel sheet of the radio output transformer to make your own, and use a high-strength enameled wire with a diameter of 0 25mm for 110 turns for the primary stage, and a high-strength enameled wire with a diameter of 0 21mm for 520 turns for the secondary. A layer of insulating paper should be added between the primary stages, and attention should be paid to the eponymous end of the primary stage coil. >>>More
