If it was energized before its probably fine. Dry it out, heat it up, retest. Whats the PI/DAR? Winding specific?

The pi was 1.13 and the DAR was 1.10. I am not 100 :100: positive what you mean by the Winding specific?

Pretty low PI. Winding specific as in is it the HV or LV winding to ground that has low results, or between HV/LV, or all 3?

There’s lots of good reading on Megger’s site about insulation resistance testing
