Megger Explanation: Without more context, I suggest it may refer to an instrument called a 'Megger' (TM), used to test insulation resistance. 'Megger' is derived from 'megohm meter'. The intrument is so well-known to electrical engineers that the term is often used (incorrectly, of course) as a verb, meaning 'to test the insulation'. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 mins (2009-01-19 22:24:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Megger The "Megger" instrument for measuring the insulation resistance of electrical ...
