Explaining Low Insulation Resistance Tests

Like a fortress, it guards the current's flow, 
Preventing leaks and mishaps, as we all know.

When this test is conducted with utmost care, 
A voltage is applied, and currents rare
Travel through the insulation, its core,
To measure resistance, as none had before.

Yet, if the resistance becometh low, 
A dire omen doth the test bestow.

Forsooth, it reveals leaks in the electrical domain,
Where current escapeth, causing concern and pain.

Such breaches in the insulation's might, 
Invite danger, as day invites the night.

Electrons astray, wandering amiss, 
May cause havoc, sparking chaos and abyss.

Aye, shocks and malfunctions may thus arise,
With potential flames that would mesmerize.

Thus, 'tis crucial to heed this warning cry, 
And rectify the issue ere dangers multiply.

Investigation and remedy must commence,
To restore insulation's pristine defense. 

So that electricity's path may be secure, 
And perilous encounters we may endure.

Hence, shouldst the low insulation resistance test disclose,
An ill omen, where current clandestinely goes,
Attend to it swiftly, with diligence and grace, 
To ensure safety and harmony in every place.
