Safety information

The installation manual does not represent a 
complete set of all safety measures required for the 
operation of the device.
Special operating conditions can require addition-
al measures. The installation instructions contain 
information which must be observed to ensure your 
personal safety and avoid material damage.

Symbols used on the device:

The additional symbol on the de-
vice itself indicates an electrical 
danger that can result in serious 
injuries or death. 
This general warning symbol 
draws attention to a possible risk 
of injury. Be certain to observe 
all of the information listed under 
this symbol in order to avoid 
possible injury or even death.

Safety information in the installation manual is 
marked by a warning triangle and, in dependence 
on the degree of hazard, is displayed as follows:

Safety measures

When operating electric devices, it is unavoidable 
for certain parts of these devices to conduct haz-
ardous voltage. Consequently, severe bodily injury 
or material damage can occur if they are not handled 
properly:

•  Before making connections to the device, ground 

the device by means of the ground wire connec-
tion, if present.

•  Hazardous voltages can be present in all circuitry 

parts that are connected to the power supply.

•  There can still be hazardous voltages present in the 

device even after it has been disconnected from 
the supply voltage (capacitor storage).

•  Do not operate equipment with current transformer 

circuits when open.

•  Do not exceed the limit values specified in the user 

manual and on the rating plate! This must also be 
observed during testing and commissioning!

•  Take note of the safety and warning notices in the 

documents that belong to the device!

Safety

Safety information

The installation manual does not represent a 
complete set of all safety measures required for the 
operation of the device.
Special operating conditions can require addition-
al measures. The installation instructions contain 
information which must be observed to ensure your 
personal safety and avoid material damage.

Symbols used on the device:

The additional symbol on the de-
vice itself indicates an electrical 
danger that can result in serious 
injuries or death. 
This general warning symbol 
draws attention to a possible risk 
of injury. Be certain to observe 
all of the information listed under 
this symbol in order to avoid 
possible injury or even death.

Safety information in the installation manual is 
marked by a warning triangle and, in dependence 
on the degree of hazard, is displayed as follows:

Safety measures

When operating electric devices, it is unavoidable 
for certain parts of these devices to conduct haz-
ardous voltage. Consequently, severe bodily injury 
or material damage can occur if they are not handled 
properly:

•  Before making connections to the device, ground 

the device by means of the ground wire connec-
tion, if present.

•  Hazardous voltages can be present in all circuitry 

parts that are connected to the power supply.

•  There can still be hazardous voltages present in the 

device even after it has been disconnected from 
the supply voltage (capacitor storage).

•  Do not operate equipment with current transformer 

circuits when open.

•  Do not exceed the limit values specified in the user 

manual and on the rating plate! This must also be 
observed during testing and commissioning!

•  Take note of the safety and warning notices in the 

documents that belong to the device! 

Qualified personnel

To avoid bodily injury and material damage, only 
qualified personnel with electrical training are per-
mitted to work on the device who have knowledge 
of:

•  the national accident prevention regulations.
•  safety technology standards,
•  installation, commissioning and operation of the 

device.

Intended use

The device is:

•  Intended for installation in switchboard cabinets 

and small distribution boards. The mounting 
orientation is arbitrary (Please observe step 3 
"Installation").

•  Not intended for installation in vehicles! Use of 

the device in non-stationary equipment consti-
tutes an exceptional environmental condition and 
is only permissible by special agreement.

•  Not intended for installation in environments 

with harmful oils, acids, gases, vapors, dusts, 
radiation, etc.

•  Designed as an indoor meter.

Safe and trouble-free operation of the device pre-
supposes proper transport, proper storage, set-up 
and assembly as well as operation and mainte-
nance.

The device is a multifunctional network analyzer 
that:

•  Measures and calculates electrical quantities 

such as voltage, current, frequency, power, work, 
harmonics current, etc. in building installations, 
at distribution boards, circuit breakers and bus-
bar trunking systems.

•  Displays and stores measurement results and 

transmits them via interfaces.

Safety

Safety information

The installation manual does not represent a 
complete set of all safety measures required for the 
operation of the device.
Special operating conditions can require addition-
al measures. The installation instructions contain 
information which must be observed to ensure your 
personal safety and avoid material damage.

Symbols used on the device:

The additional symbol on the de-
vice itself indicates an electrical 
danger that can result in serious 
injuries or death. 
This general warning symbol 
draws attention to a possible risk 
of injury. Be certain to observe 
all of the information listed under 
this symbol in order to avoid 
possible injury or even death.

Safety information in the installation manual is 
marked by a warning triangle and, in dependence 
on the degree of hazard, is displayed as follows:

Safety measures

When operating electric devices, it is unavoidable 
for certain parts of these devices to conduct haz-
ardous voltage. Consequently, severe bodily injury 
or material damage can occur if they are not handled 
properly:

•  Before making connections to the device, ground 

the device by means of the ground wire connec-
tion, if present.

•  Hazardous voltages can be present in all circuitry 

parts that are connected to the power supply.

•  There can still be hazardous voltages present in the 

device even after it has been disconnected from 
the supply voltage (capacitor storage).

•  Do not operate equipment with current transformer 

circuits when open.

•  Do not exceed the limit values specified in the user 

manual and on the rating plate! This must also be 
observed during testing and commissioning!

•  Take note of the safety and warning notices in the 

documents that belong to the device!

Safety information

The installation manual does not represent a 
complete set of all safety measures required for the 
operation of the device.
Special operating conditions can require addition-
al measures. The installation instructions contain 
information which must be observed to ensure your 
personal safety and avoid material damage.

Symbols used on the device:

The additional symbol on the de-
vice itself indicates an electrical 
danger that can result in serious 
injuries or death. 
This general warning symbol 
draws attention to a possible risk 
of injury. Be certain to observe 
all of the information listed under 
this symbol in order to avoid 
possible injury or even death.

Safety information in the installation manual is 
marked by a warning triangle and, in dependence 
on the degree of hazard, is displayed as follows:

Safety measures

When operating electric devices, it is unavoidable 
for certain parts of these devices to conduct haz-
ardous voltage. Consequently, severe bodily injury 
or material damage can occur if they are not handled 
properly:

•  Before making connections to the device, ground 

the device by means of the ground wire connec-
tion, if present.

•  Hazardous voltages can be present in all circuitry 

parts that are connected to the power supply.

•  There can still be hazardous voltages present in the 

device even after it has been disconnected from 
the supply voltage (capacitor storage).

•  Do not operate equipment with current transformer 

circuits when open.

•  Do not exceed the limit values specified in the user 

manual and on the rating plate! This must also be 
observed during testing and commissioning!

•  Take note of the safety and warning notices in the 

documents that belong to the device!
