1. A newly installed test is
4160V emergency
generator has an
insulation resistance
value of 150 Megohms
after one minute with
an equipment
tempera- ture of 32
degrees C. Is this
value acceptable per
NETA standards?

testing-stan- Neutral voltage (277 V) should be used in the formula. 5 A on
dard-should-you-choose-to- the line will also be 5A on the windings since the
determine-dielectric-breakdown- transformer configuration is a Wye configuration. I also

this calculation since it isn't mentioned in the question and

This was originally a True/False
statement question. The answer
stat- ed that the load side is wrong.
The reference above seems to imply
that meter sockets and meter
disconnect switches should generally
be connected on the line side.
