POWER LEAD AND BATTERY CHARGING
5
If the power lead supplied is not suitable for your mains connection, do
not use an adaptor. Always use a power lead fitted with the correct plug.
The instrument is fitted with a two-pin IEC60320 power inlet. Most power
leads are made with three-core cable, so the ground connection will not
be used.

If using a fused plug, ensure that it is fitted with a 3 Amp fuse.
The instrument can be powered from 85 - 265 Vrms a.c. at 50/60 Hz. The
battery will charge as long as the mains supply is connected, except when
a test is in progress. The power On/Off button has a green LED, which
illuminates when mains power is present. For optimum battery life, charge
the battery after each use. A completely exhausted battery will take 14
hours to recharge.
