Original USSR Megger with Manual Generator – Bakelite Case – Cold War Electrical Testing Device – Operational Status Unknown An authentic Soviet hand-cranked megohmmeter, manufactured in 1967, intended for professional measurement of insulation resistance in electrical installations. This instrument represents a typical example of Cold War–era Soviet industrial engineering, widely used in aviation support units, military facilities, power stations, and industrial laboratories. The device features a manual generator designed to produce a nominal test voltage of 500 volts, allowing resistance measurements in the kilohm and megohm range. ----- Please note: the instrument has not been tested and its working condition is unknown. No functional checks, calibration, or electrical measurements have been performed. The housing is made of robust bakelite, characteristic of Soviet measuring equipment of the period. The analog scale with kΩ / MΩ markings remains clearly visible and intact. All observed components appear original, with no signs of modern replacement. This megohmmeter was manufactured according to GOST 8038-60, confirming standardized production for institutional and industrial use in the USSR. The year of manufacture (1967) is indicated on the scale. Due to the lack of testing, this item is offered strictly as a historical, collectible, or display piece, suitable for collectors of scientific instruments, Cold War technology, aviation ground equipment, or industrial design. Technical details: Type: Hand-cranked megohmmeter (insulation resistance tester) - Test voltage (nominal): 500 V - Measurement scale: kΩ / MΩ - Standard: GOST 8038-60 - Year of manufacture: 1967 Power source: Manual generator Case material: Bakelite Origin: USSR Testing status: Not tested – operational condition unknown Condition: The instrument is preserved in original, unrestored condition. Visible signs of age include scratches, scuffs, oxidation on metal parts, and wear to the leather carrying handle, all consistent with long-term professional storage or use. ----- Important: The device has not been tested. The seller cannot confirm whether the instrument is functional or non-functional. Sold as-is. Historical context: During the Cold War, megohmmeters of this type were essential tools for checking insulation integrity in aircraft electrical systems, military installations, industrial machinery, and power infrastructure. Their manual operation allowed use in remote locations without external power sources. Shipping: Ships from Ukraine within 3 working days after auction ends.
