Model: IR4056-20

The Hioki IR4056-20 is designed for electrical maintenance technicians and installers who need fast, reliable insulation resistance testing across different voltage classes. With five selectable test voltages of 50 V, 125 V, 250 V, 500 V, and 1000 V DC, it provides flexibility for testing control circuits, cables, motors, and industrial electrical equipment.

The tester measures insulation resistance up to 4000 MΩ at the 1000 V test range. Its semi-transmissive FSTN LCD with backlighting and bar-graph display helps keep measurement results visible in bright outdoor conditions and dim electrical panel environments.

A response time of approximately 0.8 seconds supports quick PASS/FAIL decisions during repetitive testing. The built-in case is designed to withstand drops from up to 1 metre onto concrete and includes storage compartments for test leads, making it practical for field-service work.

The IR4056-20 also includes a built-in AC/DC voltmeter for supplementary voltage checks, with measurement up to 600 V. Its CAT III 600 V safety rating makes it suitable for distribution-level electrical testing applications.

Need a different specification? The Hioki range also includes the IR3455, a high-voltage insulation tester designed for testing applications from 250 V up to 5 kV, so you can match the model to your exact application.
