15.11 Influence of noise
Definition of noise:
Injection of series interference (voltage / current) with system frequencies of: 16 2/3 Hz, 50 Hz, 60 Hz,
400 Hz or d.c. (frequencies by IEC 61557-5).
Measurement function ........................................ 2, 3, 4 – pole, Selective (Iron, Flex Clamp),
Wenner and Schlumberger method,
HF Earth Resistance (25 kHz), Potential
Max noise interference voltage
on terminals H, S, ES and E ...................................... 40 V rms
Max noise interference current through:
Flex clamps (A1487)................................................. 30 A rms (One turn)
Iron clamp (A1018) .................................................. 5 A rms
Max external magnetic field .................................... 100 A/m (No influence)
Noise rejection (* See note)
Measurement function ........................................ 2 Clamps
Max noise interference current through:
Iron clamp (A1018) ................................................. 5 A rms (Re < 20)
1 A rms (Re > 20)
Max external magnetic field .................................... 100 A/m (No influence)

Noise icon
High electrical noise was detected during measurement. Results may be
impaired. Limit [ Noise frequency is close (±6 %) to the test frequency].
To high input measuring signals on terminals H, S, ES, E, Clamp, F1, F2, F2, F3 or F4.
Possible reasons: max noise interference voltage or current have been reached; check the
number of turns on flex clamps.
The measuring range of the instrument is exceeded.
Measurement could not be started or displayed!
