I've used a megger to test HV lines powering photomultiplier tubes.
Never used one with classic computer gear (yet).

I would
strongly recommend 'meggering' the transformer after giving it a
preliminary clean-up. If you've got insualtion troubles, it may not be

[Does the term 'megger' mean anything across the Pond? Over here it's a
common term (actually a trade name that's become generic) for a
high-voltage insulation tester]
Not a term that I've heard of. ?Sounds like swearing to my ears. :-)
