Always comply with local safety regula-
tions.
Symbols
Caution, refer to accompanying docu-
ments.
Protective conductor terminal/test
ground.
Ground
For connecting an additional
ground between the main unit and
accessories or to ground external
objects e.g. optional trolley.
Open ground = the ground Loop
Detector will indicate that the separate
“Test Ground” on the side panel is not
connected to safety/chassis ground.

Equipment. Please utilize your local
WEEE collection facilities in the dispo-
sition of this product and otherwise
observe all applicable requirements.
Warning and Caution Notices
Warning and caution notices are used throughout
this manual where applicable and should be strictly
observed. These notices appear in the format shown
below and are defined as follows:
Warning
Warning, as used in this manual, is defined as
a condition or practice which could result in
personal injury or loss of life.
Caution
Caution, as used in this manual, is defined as
a condition or practice which could result in
damage to or destruction of the equipment or
apparatus under test.
Open ground detection
1.
The unit has an open ground detection circuit
which gives alarm if the mains outlet ground
is missing or different from the station/test
specimen ground. The alarm can be configured
by the user to give an alarm only or actually lock
the unit and prohibit any test signal generation.
2.
The mains outlet must have a PE, protective
earth (ground) connected to station ground.
Normally mains outlet PE is connected to station
ground. If that is not the case there are two
alternatives:
▪ In compliance with local safety regulations
and permits, use an isolation transformer
where the secondary side Earth/Ground is
to be connected to station ground using a
separate ground cable (not via TRAX unit!)
▪ In compliance with local safety regulations
and permits, use a temporary grounding
connection by connecting mains outlet
ground with station ground.
Instrument safety
1.
This instrument operates from a single-phase
power source. It has two-pole terminal with
ground connector and requires a two-pole, 16A,
three-terminal, voltage and ground type con-
nector. The voltage of the power source must
be within the following rated operating voltage:
100-240 V ± 10 %, 47 / 63 Hz.
2.
Before making connection to the power source,
determine that the instrument rating matches
the voltage of the power source and has a suita-
ble two-pole terminal with ground connector.
