7.3. POWER SUPPLY
The equipment power supply is obtained from:
Rechargeable NiMh batteries - 8 x 1.2 V / 3.5 Ah
External recharge: 85 to 256 V / 50-60 Hz
Minimum operating time (per IEC 61557-2)
Test voltage
Nominal load
Number of 5-s measurements at
nominal load (with 25-s pause between
measurements)
Average operating time
Assuming 1-minute DAR measurements 10 times a day and 10 -minute PI measurements 5 times a day,
the operating time would be 15 workdays or 3 weeks
Recharging time
6 hours to recover 100% capacity (10 hours if the battery is completely run down)
0.5 hours to recover 10% capacity (charge life: 2 days approximately)
Note: It is possible to recharge the batteries while performing insulation measurements provided that
the values measured are greater than 20 M . In this case, the recharging time is longer than 6
hours and depends on the frequency of the measurements.
