... reading may well be unacceptable. Why, because the circuits all possess resistance and resistors in parallel have the effect of reducing the overall value. The diagram below shows 4 circuits each with a 'healthy' insulation resistance value of 2 MΩ. The result of this is that 4 x 2 MΩ circuits give ...
