15 kV insulation quality analyser with partial discharge indication
The AMIC-15K1 analyses insulation up to 40 TΩ with 15 kV of test voltage and up to 10 mA of current, adding a partial discharge indicator, a ramp test with breakdown-voltage indication and burnout fault location to the standard IR, DAR, PI, SV and DD measurements.
Advantages
15 kV for the largest objects
A highly efficient HV inverter delivers 15 kV and up to 10 mA, for a measuring range of 50 kΩ to 40 TΩ per IEC 61557-2; in line with the ANSI/NETA ATS-2009 tables, objects rated above 34.5 kV can be tested.
Partial discharges under control
The PDI indicator reveals partial discharges, and the ramp test (RT) raises the voltage smoothly — without electrical stress — recording the time and the voltage at which the insulation breakdown occurs.
Immune to interference
High resistance to electromagnetic interference allows uninterrupted work in power plants and near transmission lines up to 1200 kV AC and 500 kV DC, helped by digital filters averaging 10 to 200 s and immunity to interference voltages up to 1550 V.
Burnout fault location
An inverter of about 150 W intensifies the potential damage point, so faults can be located visually on exposed cables, by reflectometric methods or with a seismic-acoustic detector and geophone.
Remote testing and reporting
The AMIC Mobile application shows real-time graphs, starts and stops the measurement remotely and geolocates the test with the phone GPS, while the Reader software compares historical and current data to track insulation degradation.
Applications
- Single- and multi-core power cables.
- Transformers, motors and generators.
- Capacitors, switchgear and substation equipment.
- Electric rail vehicles and other power objects.
- Measurements near lines up to 1200 kV AC and 500 kV DC.

Frequently asked questions
What makes it an insulation quality analyser?
Beyond insulation resistance, it indicates partial discharges (PDI), performs ramp tests with breakdown-voltage indication and calculates the DAR, PI, SV and DD indices.
Can it work near high-voltage lines?
Yes. It withstands interference voltages up to 1550 V and currents up to 10 mA, and works uninterrupted near transmission lines up to 1200 kV AC and 500 kV DC.
How does the ramp test work?
The RT function raises the test voltage smoothly, without stressing the object, and records the time and the voltage at which the insulation breaks down.
Can measurements be controlled remotely?
Yes. The AMIC Mobile application starts and stops the test remotely, shows real-time graphs and records the GPS position of the measurement.
How long does the battery last?
The 14.8 V Li-Ion battery performs at least 1000 insulation resistance measurements per EN 61557-2 on one charge, and the meter also runs from the 90-260 V mains.
