1. Safety Precautions
This product complies with the requirements of the following
European Community Directives: 2004/108/EG (Electromagnetic
Compatibility) and 2006/95/EG (Low Voltage) as amended by
2004/22/EG (CE-Marking).
Overvoltage category III 1000 V; pollution degree 2.
CAT I: For signal level, telecommunication, electronic with small
transient over voltage
CAT II: For local level, appliances, main wall outlets, portable
equipment
CAT III: Supplied from a cable under earth; fixed installed switches,
automatic cut-off or main plugs
CAT IV: Units and installations, which are supplied overhead lines,
which are stand in a risk of persuade of lightning, i.e. main-
switches on current input, overvoltage-diverter, current use
counter.
To ensure safe operation of the equipment and eliminate the danger
of serious injury due to short-circuits (arcing), the following safety
precautions must be observed.
Damages resulting from failure to observe these safety precautions
are exempt from any legal claims whatever.
* Do not use this instrument for high-energy industrial installation
measurement. This instrument is intended for use in installation
over voltage category II according to IEC 664. For measuring
circuit not exceeding 1000 V DC / 750 V AC.
* Do not place the equipment on damp or wet surfaces.
* Do not exceed the maximum permissible input ratings (danger of
serious injury and/or destruction of the equipment).
* The meter is designed to withstand the stated max voltages. If it is
not possible to exclude without that impulses, transients,
disturbance or for other reasons, these voltages are exceeded a
suitable presale (10:1) must be used.
* Disconnect test leads or probe from the measuring circuit before
switching modes or functions.
* To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test
and discharge all capacitors before taking any resistance
measurements.
