True, but unfortunately I don't currently own or have access to such a

You want to do a high voltage insulation test (aka 'megger' test) at

I've wound a number of them in the past, including some rather unusual HV
stuff for custom equipment. I'd certainly double check my work with a
meter, but I'd be ok with it.
