Touch Current Test (I
TOUCH
)
Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury, NEVER
carry out this test unless you have first carried out a thorough visual
inspection, followed by a test of the earthing (Class I appliances), and
then a test of the insulation. You must verify that these tests are passed
before you do this test.
Caution
Live test! The appliance is energized at mains voltage. For this purpose,
switch on the appliance. Appliances driven by motors or equipped with
heating units may present a danger for the person testing (comply with
the appliance instruction manual). Please ensure that the appliance is in
a safe condition to operate and secure before the test.
The Touch Current test consists of:
• A fuse and L-N loop pre-test.
• A leakage current measurement with approximately 2 kΩ resistance connected between
earth and exposed conductive parts on the appliance via the test probe. The measurement
is performed by the direct measurement method.
To perform the Touch Current test:
1. Connect the appliance and the test probe as indicated on the Tester, see Figure 4.
• For Class II appliances apply the probe to any exposed metalwork on the
appliance.
• For Class I appliances apply the probe to any exposed metalwork on the
appliance that is not connected to earth.
