Figure 8: IaltEq measurement
Outlet conditions:
- Normal
- Open PE
Do not touch exposed conductive parts of the tested appliance while
measurement is in progress –
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
The test voltage is max. 127 V / 50 or 60 Hz, and the short circuit

PE
terminal (if Open PE is selected plug into the
PAT
terminal).
•
Switch on tested appliance’s mains switch.
