5.0 TESTING THE MATS AND CABLE
5.1 TEST ONE: TOTAL CABLE RESISTANCE
(MULTI-METER REQUIRED)
1. Connect one meter clamp to one cold lead (pigtail) inner conductor and the
other meter clamp to the other cold lead (pigtail) inner conductor.
2. Test in accordance with the meter manufacturer’s instructions and record this

your results.
5.2 TEST TWO & THREE: INSULATION RESISTANCE
(MEGOHMMETER REQUIRED)
1. Connect one meter clamp to the cold lead (pigtail) inner conductor and the
other meter clamp to the yellow/green (ground) of the Heating Cable.
2. Test in accordance with the meter manufacturer’s instructions. Recommended
meter is a 500 VDC megohmmeter.
3. Megohmmeter reading should read “innite”.
