Figure 5.45: Examples of clamp current measurement result
Displayed results:
Main result ............. clamp current
Notes:
When measuring leakage currents, the neighboring magnetic fields and capacitive
coupling (especially from the L and N conductors) can disturb the results. It is
recommended that the clamp is as close as possible to the grounded surface and
away from wires and other objects under voltage or carrying current.
METREL offers high quality current clamps for this application.
Current clamp shield terminal connector (green terminal) can be left open.
5.2.14. Functional test
Functional test is the simplest way to ensure that the appliance is working properly.
Note:
This test should only be performed once the DUT has passed all other tests
applicable to this type of appliances.
Scope of test
Check following items while the appliance is operating:
RCDs and other disconnection devices.
How hot the appliance becomes during operation.
Rotating parts, fans, etc.
Power consumption.
Lamps and indicators.
Etc.
Especially safety relevant functions should be checked.
Functional test procedure
Select the FUNCTIONAL TEST function.
Plug the device under test to the instrument’s test socket and supply the
instrument.
Select and start POWER sub-function. Switch on the appliance and check that it
operates correctly.
Select PASS or FAIL according to the result of functional test.
Store the result by pressing MEM key (optional).
