G Safety Warnings
Before commencing any testing, short the prods
together to check the batteries.
The TPT320 is designed to offer a high
degree of safety. It conforms to standards
DIN VDE 0682-401 and IEC/EN 61243-3.
To ensure that the unit is operated safely,
please read the following instructions
before using the device.
■
Do not use the instrument in a humid
environment.
■ Before testing a live circuit the voltage tester
should be checked by connecting to a
known voltage source (e.g. a suitable 120
/ 230 V outlet or a suitable proving unit)
before and after use.
■ Tests for voltage
should be made with both
poles.
■
Extreme care must be conducted when
testing voltages above 50 V AC / 120 V DC.
■ Ensure the tester is only used within the
stated measurement ranges and in low
voltage installations up to 690 V and in the
measuring category it has been designed for.
■ When testing ensure hands are behind the
barriers on the main body and remote probe.
Avoid touching the tips.
■ The instrument must be in good order, clean,
dry and with no broken case or damaged
lead or probes.
■
Do not use the unit with battery cap
removed and ensure when changing the
batteries no probe is connected to any
circuits.
■
Do not use the instrument if one or more
functions are not working correctly.
■ The
voltage warning triangle F LED
will illuminate to indicate voltage is present at
the tips in the event of exhausted batteries
while testing. This must not be used for
measuring purposes.
■ The audible indication should be considered
for audibility in noisy environments.
■ Remove the batteries if the tester is not to be
used for a long period of time.
■ The voltage tester must not be used with
exhausted or leaked batteries. Danger of
electric shock!
General point: Voltage tests have priority on the
TPT320. If no voltage is detected at the probe tip
(<10 V), the device is in continuous test mode.
