4. Overvoltage/Installation Category

DMMs are categorized depending on the risk and severity of transient overvoltage that might occur at the point of test. Transients are short-lived bursts of energy induced in a system, e.g. caused by lightning strike on a power line.

The existing categories according EN 61010-1 are:

CAT I	A CAT I-rated meter is suitable for measurements on protected electronic circuits that are not directly connected to mains power, e.g. electronics circuits, control signals...
CAT II	A CAT II-rated meter is suitable for measurements in CAT I environments and mono-phase appliances that are connected to the mains by means of a plug and circuits in a normal domestic environment, provided that the circuit is at least 10 m apart from a CAT III, or 20 m apart from a CAT IV environment. E.g. household appliances, portable tools...
CAT III	A CAT III-rated meter is suitable for measurements in CAT I and CAT II environments, as well as for measurements on (fixed) mono- or poly-phased appliances which are at least 10 m apart from a CAT IV environment, and for measurements in or on distribution level equipment (fuse boxes, lighting circuits, electric ovens).
CAT IV	A CAT IV-rated meter is suitable for measuring in CAT I, CAT II and CAT III environments as well as on the primary supply level. Note that for all measurements on equipment for which the supply cables run outdoors (either overhead or underground) a CAT IV meter must be used.

Warning: This device was designed in accordance with EN 61010-1 installation category CAT III 600V. This implies that certain restrictions in use apply that are related to voltages and voltage peaks which can occur within the environment of use. Refer to the table above.

This device is suitable for measurements up to 600 V:

• measurements in/on low-voltage distribution boards (distribution boards behind meter box)
• measurements on (fixed) mono- or poly-phased appliances and circuits except in CAT IV environments (e.g. mains outlets, electric ovens, lighting circuits, bus bars, low-voltage distribution boards and circuit breakers).

This device is NOT suitable for:

• Voltages above 1000 V

- Measurements on distribution equipment and outdoor installations including meter boxes and equipment/circuits outside or remote from the domestic environment e.g. circuits in sheds, garden houses and free-standing garages, or circuits using underground wiring e.g. garden lighting, pool-pump...

THIS DEVICE IS ONLY SUITABLE FOR MEASUREMENTS UP TO 600 V IN CAT III.

5. Pollution Degree

IEC 61010-1 specifies different types of pollution environments, for which different protective measures are necessary to ensure safety. Harsher environments require more protection, and the protection against the pollution which is to be found in a certain environment depends mainly on the insulation and the enclosure properties. The pollution degree rating of the DMM indicates in which environment the device may be used.

Pollution degree 1	No pollution or only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs. The pollution has no influence (only to be found in hermetically sealed enclosures).
Pollution degree 2	Only nonconductive pollution occurs. Occasionally, temporary conductivity caused by condensation is to be expected (home and office environments fall under this category).
Pollution degree 3	Conductive pollution occurs, or dry nonconductive pollution occurs that becomes conductive due to condensation that is to be expected (industrial environments and environments exposed to outside air - but not in contact with precipitation).
Pollution degree 4	The pollution generates persistent conductivity caused by conductive dust or by rain or snow (exposed outdoor environments and environments where high humidity levels or high concentrations of fine particles occur).

Warning: This device was designed in accordance with EN 61010-1 pollution degree 2. This implies that certain restrictions in use apply that are related to pollution which can occur within the environment of use. Refer to the table above.

THIS DEVICE IS ONLY SUITABLE FOR MEASUREMENTS IN POLLUTION DEGREE CLASS 2 ENVIRONMENTS.
