3.  Connect  the  shuko  plug  into  a  230V  50Hz  socket  or  the  crocodiles  to  the 

conductors of the three-phase system (see previous pictures).  

4.  If  possible  disconnect  all  low  impedance  loads  downstream  the  point  at  which 

the  measurement  is  to  be  taken,  as  such  impedance  would  be  in  parallel  with 
the line impedance to be measured. 

5.  The key 

F4 

permits to select one of the following 

limit values for the contact 

voltage 

(which can be shown cyclically when pressing the key): 

  50V (default) 

  25V. 

6.  Press the 

START 

key

 

to execute a test. 

 
 
 

WARNING 

 

 

The 

R

A

  measurement  make flow a test  current  of 15mA. This may cause 

tripping of 10mA. If necessary effect the test upstream the switch. 

 
 
 

WARNING 

 

 

Never  disconnect  the  test  leads  from  the  circuit  under  test  when  the 
message 

" MEASURING "

 is displayed.
