key.

10. Use the rotary knob to select the

button and press the rotary knob.

11. Use the rotary knob to select the measurement data of the first measurement and press

the rotary knob.
The traces of the first, second and third phases are displayed.

Recommendation if the fault position is not easily visible



If the fault position is not visible properly in the reflection image and the measurement has

been performed on a live cable, de-energise the cable and repeat the measurement with

the voltage protection disabled.
