The cable continuity test is intended for measuring the line
resistance and is used, for example, for connecting cables,
extension cables and cable reels. During the measurement, all
conductors are tested individually. You can change the following
testing parameters via the "
Limits
" button:
line length
(stated in [m])
line cross-section
(stated in [mm²])
no. of conductors
(max. for single-phase loads
(L, N, PE
))
R line per conductor (Ω)
(admissible limit of the line resistance in [Ω])
The cables of the test sample must always be unreeled
(e. g. in case of a cable reel)! The test frequency is
50 Hz.
Application
Class I, cable, continuity test
(e. g. multiple socket)

Connect the test socket to the cable adapter jack of the appliance
tester using a
multiple socket
, an
extension cable
or a
connecting cable
.
The test sample is supplied with the testing voltage.
The appliance tester automatically switches between the different
conductors
(L, N, PE
) and checks the respective line resistance.
Measurement
Connect the mains plug of the test sample to the test socket of
the appliance tester.
Multiple socket/
extension cable
Connecting cable
Connect the included cable
adapter to the shock-proof socket
of the test sample.
Connect the cable adapter to the
cable adapter jack.
Connect the connecting
cable to the cable adapter
jack.
Tap the “
Start
” button.
The appliance tester automatically switches between the different
conductors
(L, N, PE
).
Tap the “
Stop
” button to stop the test.
The “
Test result
” screen opens.
