OPERATION
Live Circuit Warning
The live circuit warning indicator will illuminate if 60 V or more is detected at
the terminals. Testing should be aborted if lit.
Default Voltage measurement
The
210600
will act as a direct reading default voltmeter (0 to 600 V
a.c./d.c.) in the ‘Standby’ mode (when switched ‘On’, and any of the
Insulation test positions is selected). The ‘Test’ push must not be pressed
when making a voltage test. Note:- The
210600
is internally fuse protected
to 500 V. For fuse protection with supplies above 500 V, use Fuse Probe Kit
FPK5.
1.
Turn the instrument ‘On’ by pressing the ‘On‘/‘Off‘ switch-button once.
2.
Select any Insulation test position with the rotary selector switch. ’V’ is
displayed.
3.
Carefully connect the test leads to the circuit under test. Do not press
the ‘Test’ push.
4.
Read the voltage measurement directly from the display.
5.
Carefully disconnect the test leads and turn the instrument ‘Off‘ by
pressing the ‘On‘/‘Off‘ switch-button once.
Low Resistance measurement (k
Ω
)
1.
Turn the instrument ‘On’ by pressing the ‘On /’Off ‘switch-button once.
2.
Select k
Ω
with the rotary selector switch.
3.
Ensure that all test leads are clean and in good condition, and connect
them to the isolated circuit under test.
4.
Press the ‘Test’ push and read the measurement directly from the
display.
5.
Disconnect the test leads and turn the instrument ‘Off‘ by pressing the
‘On‘/‘Off‘ switch-button once.
Insulation Testing (M
Ω
)
Automatic circuit discharge is effective when the ‘Test‘ push is released, and
decaying voltage is displayed until the circuit is discharged.
1.
Turn the instrument ‘On’ by pressing the ‘On‘/‘Off‘ switch-button once.
2.
Ensure that all test leads are clean and in good condition, and connect
them to the isolated circuit under test.
3.
Select the required test voltage with the rotary selector switch.
4.
Press the ‘Test’ push and read the measurement directly from the
display. Overrange is indicated by ‘ ’.
5.
Release the ‘Test’ push and monitor any displayed voltage to confirm
when any discharging voltage decays to zero.
6.
When the circuit has discharged, disconnect the test leads and turn the
instrument ‘Off‘ by pressing the ‘On‘/‘Off‘ switch-button once.
