Readings in the range listed below 100 Meg–Ohm would be an indi-
cator that the system being tested may have a contamination prob-
lem. Where does the problem come from? As an example, the filter
drier may become saturated and hold large percentages of moisture
and the system function without a problem until such time as the
product operating conditions change. Should the room temperature
increase, or the condenser plug–up etc., the higher operating pres-
sures and temperatures may cause the drier filter to release a portion
of it’s held moisture. It is also imperative to avoid opening the sealed
refrigeration system whenever possible and when it is done to be
certain the true problem is correctly diagnosed and repaired. Re-
member, service gauge sets should only be installed after all external
checks have been performed.
Caution: Megger checks should NEVER be performed
on any compressor that is under a vacuum.
