For a single-phase 240V motor, an acceptable insulation resistance reading is typically above 1 megohm (MΩ). However, many manufacturers recommend a minimum of 2 MΩ for optimal performance and safety. Readings below these values may indicate insulation deterioration and potential motor failure, necessitating further inspection or maintenance. Always consult the motor's specific documentation for precise requirements.
