ARGUS Copper Test Manual
2 Safety information copper tests
There are the following safety specifications:
VDC
0 V to 200 V
VAC
0 V to 200 V
IDC
0 mA to 150 mA
ISO
105 VDC, max. 2 mA
R
13 VDC, max. 15 mA
The following special instructions must be observed for the individual measurements:
Voltage
Be sure to observe the permissible measuring range specified above when measuring
voltage.
Capacitance/capacitive symmetry
Before measuring, make sure that the voltage thresholds given in the table below are not
exceeded during the measurement. Certain measurements can require a longer settling
time. An automatic “TRG-opt.” measurement can thus take some time.
Isolation resistance
Before measuring, make sure that the voltage thresholds given in the table below are not
exceeded during the measurement. During the measurement, the ARGUS can apply a
measuring voltage of up to 105 V max. 1 mA) to the line. Certain measurements can
require a longer settling time. An autotest can thus take some time.
Loop resistance/resistance symmetry
Before measuring, make sure that the voltage thresholds given in the table below are not
exceeded during the measurement. During the measurement, the ARGUS can apply a
measuring voltage of up ton 13 V (max. 15 mA) to the line.
DC current
Be sure to observe the permissible measuring range specified above when measuring DC
current. Make sure you connect the ARGUS in the circuit in series.
