Dale 600 Meter Procedure
When measuring system chassis currents with the Dale 600, always use the CHASSIS selection of the
external/chassis function switch. This requires the ground clip lead and changing the meters switches
in accordance with the IEC 601-1.1. Refer to the Dale 600 Instruction Manual for meter self-test and
operation. Record the highest leakage current measured.
Follow these steps to test the unit for leakage current.
1.)Turn the VIVID P3 unit OFF.
2.)Plug the unit into the meter, and the meter into the tested AC wall outlet
3.)Plug the black chassis cable into the meter's “CHASSIS” connector and attach the black chassis
cable clamp to an exposed metal part of the VIVID P3.
4.)Set the tester's “FUNCTION” switch to CHASSIS position.
5.)Follow the test conditions described for respective test points shown in
.
6.) Keep a record of the results with other hard copies of PM data kept on site.
