Press the GO/STOP key on the instrument, the START
key on the remote switch probe or use the AutoStart
feature (see § 5.1.5). The instrument starts the
measurement and the “Measuring…” message is shown
on the display.
During this whole stage, do not disconnect the measuring
leads of the instrument from the system under test. The
following screen appears on the instrument's display.
The value of the prospective short-circuit current (Ipfc) is
shown in the upper part of the display, while the
Line/Fault loop Z
L-PE
impedance is shown in the bottom
part of the display.
The Standard (Std) prospective short-circuit current (Isc)
is calculated using the following formulas:
Z
MEAS
= measured L-L,L-N,L-PE loop impedance
U
NOM
= nominal voltage (depending on the system)
