Basic and service errors for Insulation and Resistance ranges

The basic error is the maximum inaccuracy of the instrument

under ideal conditions, whereas the service error is the

maximum inaccuracy taking into effect of battery voltage,

temperature, interference, and system voltage and frequency,

where applicable. After determining the service error, we can

then calculate the measurement range. This is the range of

measurement over which the error in service is less than 30%

of the reading. Digital instruments are affected by the number

of digits error – for example a value 0,10Ω measured with the

continuity range may give a display in the range 0,07Ω to

0,13Ω which is a maximum error of 30%. Therefore the

measurement range measuring low resistance is 0,10Ω to

99,9Ω. When checking that a measurement does not exceed a

limit, the service error needs to be taken into account and
