4.3 Electrical Safety
Before removing any covers or performing maintenance repair and service,
isolate from electrical supply by removing mains plug. Where mains supply is
required during these activities, only competent persons should perform the
work.
Check that the power supply is compatible with the requirements stated on the
label and connect in accordance with IEE regulations or to local requirements.
This machine may be operated through a standard socket outlet when fitted with an
appropriate 3 pin plug fused in accordance with the label.

Brown wire (black) L Live or Power

4.3.1 Portable Appliance Tests (PAT)
All ELE designed products are tested for electrical safety prior to sale.
An electrical safety test label is fitted (usually adjacent to the mains input socket). Should no
label be found, please contact ELE’s Service Department quoting the serial number of the
equipment.
Organisations have an obligation to ensure equipment is maintained and is safe for use.
Regular PAT testing is one means of ensuring equipment continues to be electrically safe.
Important: do not connect PAT leads to sensitive components such as PCBs, control
switches, etc.
DO NOT FLASH TEST ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT.
Use the earth stud (M5 socket head) on the rear of the
machine panel or an external earth connection. Contact
ELE’s Service Department for assistance.
ELE International recommends the use of a UPS for all soil testing equipment given the
significant period of time these tests usually take. A loss of power during a test stage will
likely result in the test data being lost and the requirement to restart the whole test.
