Safety measures
When operating electrical devices, certain parts 
of these devices are invariably subjected to 
hazardous voltage. Therefore, severe bodily 
injuries or damage to property can occur if they 
are not handled properly:

•  Before connecting connections, earth the 

device at the ground wire connection if 
present.

•  Hazardous voltages may be present in all 

switching parts that are connected to the 
power supply.

•  Hazardous voltages may also be present 

in the device even after disconnecting the 
supply voltage (capacitor storage).

•  Do not operate equipment with current 

transformer circuits while open.

•  Do not exceed the threshold values specified 

in the user manual and on the rating plate. 
Also adhere to this when inspecting and 
commissioning.

•  Observe the safety and warning instructions in 

the documents that belong to the device! 

Qualified staff

In order to prevent personal injuries and damage 
to property, only qualified staff with electrical 
training may work on the device, with knowledge 
of

•  the national accident prevention regulations
•  the safety engineering standards
•  installing, commissioning and operating the 

device.

Proper use

The device is

•  intended for installation in switch cabinets 

and small installation distributors. It can be 
installed in any mounting position (please 
observe step 3 "Assembly").

•  not intended for installation in vehicles! 

The use of the device in mobile equipment 
is considered to be non-standard 
environmental conditions and is therefore 
only permitted after separate agreement.

•  not intended for installation in environments 

with hazardous oils, acids, gases, vapours, 
dusts, radiation, etc.

The prerequisites of faultless, safe operation 
of this device are proper transport and proper 
storage, set-up, installation, operation and 
maintenance.

The UMG 96 RM is a multi-functional network 
analyser, which:

•  Measures and calculates electrical 

variables such as voltage, current, 
frequency, power, energy, harmonics 
(up to the 40th harmonic), etc. in building 
installations, on distribution units, circuit 
breakers and busbar trunking systems.

•  displays and saves measurement results 

and transmits them via interfaces.

hazardous voltage. Therefore, severe bodily 
injuries or damage to property can occur if they 
are not handled properly:

•  Before connecting connections, earth the 

device at the ground wire connection if 
present.

•  Hazardous voltages may be present in all 

switching parts that are connected to the 
power supply.

•  Hazardous voltages may also be present 

in the device even after disconnecting the 
supply voltage (capacitor storage).

•  Do not operate equipment with current 

transformer circuits while open.

•  Do not exceed the threshold values specified 

in the user manual and on the rating plate.

CAUTION!

Risk of injuries or 
damage to the device

Disregard of the connection conditions for 
the voltage measurement inputs can result in 
injuries or to the device being damaged.
Therefore, note the following:

• 

The voltage measurement inputs

 

-

must not be occupied with DC voltage.

 

-

must be provided with a suitable, 
labelled fuse that is positioned close by 
and a circuit breaker (alternatively: 
a line safety switch).

 

-

are dangerous to touch.

• 

Voltages that exceed the allowed network 
rated voltages must be connected via 
a voltage transformer.

• 

Measured voltages and currents must 
derive from the same network. 

C

NOTE!
As an alternative to the fuse and circuit 
breaker, you can use a line safety switch.

WARNING!

Risk of injury due to 
large currents and high 
electric voltages!

Current transformers operating with an open 
secondary circuit (high voltage peaks) can 
result in serious or even fatal injuries.
Avoid open operation of the current transformers - 
short-circuit unloaded transformers! 

13

C

NOTE!
With measurement range exceeding, 
the measurement device display shows 
"EEE". Further information on this can 
be found in the user manual.

User manual:

The voltage measurement inputs are designed for 
measurements in low voltage networks, in which 
rated voltages of up to 

•  277 V phase to earth and 480 V phase to phase 

in the 4-conductor system or

•  480 V phase to phase in the 3-conductor system

occur.
The measurement and surge voltages meet over-
voltage category 300 V CATIII.

WARNING!

Risk of injury due to 
large currents and high 
electric voltages!

Current transformers operating with an open 
secondary circuit (high voltage peaks) can 
result in serious or even fatal injuries.
Avoid open operation of the current transformers - 
short-circuit unloaded transformers!
