Since its creation in 1893, Chauvin Arnoux ® has continued to successfully innovate and develop new products in response to
customer needs and applications. Over the years, Chauvin Arnoux ® has developed extensive expertise and knowledge in many
product lines, including: c urrent probes, multimeters (the first multimeter patented in 1937!), ground testers, insulation testers,
environmental testers and many others in the portable test instrument realm.
One product line that stands out is Insulation Testers/Megohmmeters.
Our megohmmeter line finds its roots in the early 1900s. Limited technology was available, so a
galvanometer and a decade resistance box combined with a DC power source was used to make one of
the first megohmmeters. Years later, hand-cranked technology, first using a generator, provided the test
voltage. Today, similar technology is used in the Models 6501 and 6503 hand-cranked magnetizer, but a
regulated alternator provides rectified test voltage and a sealed case protects the meter from the
environment. Electronics set in the 1950s and 60s gave birth to e lectronic megohmmeters with
electronic amplifiers. Eventually, digital displays came to the scene, though analog meters remained
due to customer habits and preference.
Today, megohmmeters are digital and incorporate many intelligent features.
Timers, alarms and variable test v oltages are becoming common. AEMC ®
introduced a unique line of professional megohmmeters (Models 1050,
1060, 5050, 5060, 5070, 6505, 6527, 6550 & 6555) with added features,
such as: memory; automated tests and results (internal c alculations
of DAR, PI and other measurements); graphical displays; PC

control; and, report compliant s oftware. Market feedback has been introduced 2012
very positive and the megohmmeters are setting new industry
standards. All AEMC ® manufactured megohmmeters are designed
to the latest international safety and testing standards,
