SAFETY INFORMATION

The meters comply with:

IEC/EN 61010-1 3rd Edition Pollution Degree 2, Measurement Category IV 600V and Measurement Category III 1000V

IEC/EN 61010-2-31 for test leads

EMC IEC/EN 61326-1

Measurement Category IV (CAT IV) is for measurements performed at the source of the low-voltage installation. Examples are electricity meters and measurements on primary overcurrent protection devices and ripple control units.

Measurement Category III (CAT III) is for measurements performed in the building installation. Examples are measurements on distribution boards,

circuit- breakers, wiring, including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches, socket-outlets in the fixed installation, and equipment for industrial use and some other equipment, for example, stationary motors with permanent connection to the fixed installation.

WARNING: Read before using

  • To avoid possible electrical shock or personal injury, follow these instructions and use the Meter only as specified in this manual.
  • Do not use the Meter or test leads if they appear damaged, or if the Meter is not operating properly. If in doubt, have the Meter serviced.
  • Always use the proper function and range for measurements.
  • Before rotating the function range selection switch, disconnect test probe from circuit under test.
  • Verify the Meter's operation by measuring on a known voltage source.
  • Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the Meter, between the test probe or between any test probe and earth ground.
  • Use the Meter with caution for voltages above 30V ac rms, 42V ac peak, or 60Vdc . These voltages pose electrical shock hazards.
  • Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance.
  • Do not use the Meter around explosive gas or vapor.
  • When using the test leads, keep your fingers behind the finger guards.
