Hi,
With 2 of our alternators down with IR value of 1M? it is a precarious condition for us. Any one of the working alternators gets broken down then it would be disastor.
The heating with sodium vapour lamps and heat radiators is proving to be very slow.
I need your help with the procedure to follow for the DC INJECTION HEATING.
Ours being a seashore facility the problem of low IR is very rampant. It is surprising that no one here has tried it till now.

Thanks in advance,
D'man
 
Edison 123,
You are absolutely perfect in this topic.

It has worked nicely on one 670 kVA alternator. It took me 11 hrs to get the IR to 4M? from 0.5M? with meggering being done every hour after first 3hrs.

This is a first in this company.

Accolades for you
Thanks from the depth my heart
