Test Sequence
➭ Before conducting any leakage current measurements, make
sure that the “Ref. voltage L-PE” and “Testingfreq. Alt” mea-
surement parameters have been correctly set in SETUP (see
section 6.2).
➭ Set the rotary switch to the I
G
position.
➭ Connect the DUT in accordance with the selected measuring
method.
➭ Select the measurement type:
– By setting the parameters
or
– Directly via the Measurement Type key
➭ As an alternative, you can select the measurement type
directly using the key shown at the right.
➭ In the case of direct and differential current measurement,
measurement must be performed with mains plug po-
larity in both directions. Select the respective polarity
to this end by pressing the NL/LN key.
➭ Start the test: press the START/STOP key.
➭ After each reconnection to the mains, and as soon as
the first test is started, a mains connection test is exe-
cuted.
➭ In the case of the direct or differential measurement type:
Acknowledge the warning which indicates that line
voltage will be connected to the test socket.
➭ Switch the device under test on.
➭ The measured values are displayed. The measured
value recording symbol shown at the right appears.
Each time this key is pressed, the currently displayed
measured value is saved to buffer memory.
➭ Turn off the device under test.
➭ End the test: press the START/STOP key.
The save symbol appears (floppy disk showing the
number of measured values stored to buffer memory)
and prompts you to save the measured values to an ID
number.
➭ Read the measured values and compare them with the
table of permissible limit values.
➭ Press the ESC key in order to discard the measured
values stored to buffer memory and acknowledge by
pressing the key shown at the right.
Test Sequence with AT3-IIIE Adapter
Please observe the operating instructions for the AT3-
IIIE regarding correct connection of the test adapter and
the device under test, as well as peculiarities involved in
the test sequence.

The U (setpoint) and frequency (setpoint) measuring parameters for the “Alterna-
tive” measurement type are no longer included as of firmware version 1.7.0.
These parameters apply to individual measurements as well as test sequences
and have to be entered in SETUP (see section section 6.2).
