Detailed Product Overview

In installation and maintenance work, insulation resistance measurements are routinely carried out when checking wiring, distribution boards, motors and electrical equipment after repairs or during periodic inspections. For these tasks, a dedicated insulation tester is often the appropriate choice instead of a multifunction installation tester or combined test instrument. 

The IR4057-90 consists of the IR4057-50 insulation tester and the Z3210 Bluetooth adapter. The included tester is a digital, battery-powered insulation tester that provides five selectable test voltages from 50 V to 1000 V and measures insulation resistance up to 4000 MΩ. It complies with EN 61557 requirements for insulation resistance and protective conductor continuity testing in low-voltage installations. 

Digital Bar Graph and Fast PASS/FAIL Evaluation

Alongside the numeric measurement display, the IR4057-90 includes a digital bar graph for continuous visual indication of insulation resistance during testing. Resistance changes can be observed directly on the scale. The comparator function evaluates insulation measurements within approximately 0.3 seconds and indicates PASS or FAIL acoustically and visually. In the event of a FAIL result, the display backlight turns red. 

PASS/FAIL thresholds can be defined individually for each test voltage. Settings remain stored even after switching the instrument off or selecting another range. With the comparator function switched off, the instrument instead displays the insulation resistance value after 60 seconds during an ongoing measurement. This supports time-based evaluation when longer test durations are required. 

Protective Conductor Testing and Voltage Measurement

Protective conductor testing is performed with a 200 mA test current in accordance with EN 61557-4. The defined test current applies sufficient load to the protective conductor connection to identify increased contact resistance, loose terminals and oxidized connections. This provides a more reliable assessment than a low-current continuity check performed with a standard digital multimeter. 

The instrument also includes AC and DC voltage measurement up to 600 V, allowing verification that the test object is not live before insulation testing. For added safety, the 500 V and 1000 V test voltages must be manually unlocked before the first measurement. This prevents accidental activation of higher test voltage levels. 

For Daily Field Work

The IR4057-90 complies with CAT III 600 V and has been tested for a 1 m drop onto concrete. It is specified for operation in ambient temperatures from -25 °C to 65 °C. The instrument is integrated into a protective hard case that forms a single unit and provides storage space for test leads and accessories. Test leads remain connected during transport. 

The high-contrast display with backlight supports work in distribution boards and poorly lit technical rooms. An optional L9788-10 test lead with integrated LED illumination and measurement trigger allows measurements to be started directly from the probe. 

With the included Z3210 Bluetooth adapter, measurement data can be transferred directly to the free GENNECT Cross app on iOS or Android devices. Results can be stored wirelessly and exported as structured reports, reducing manual documentation effort during installation and maintenance. 

Like all HIOKI insulation testers, the IR4057-90 is designed and manufactured in Japan at HIOKI’s own production facilities in Nagano Prefecture.
