1.3 Excess voltage category

The test system NSG 5500, as described in this manual, is related to the excess voltage category II according 
IEC 60664.

1.4 Range of validity

These instructions are valid for the complete installation. Further safety regulations for components installed 
in this test system or additional installed devices are not suspended by these instructions.

1.5 SYSTEM STOP button

Pressing the “SYSTEM STOP” button (on the front panel of the FT 5531) or opening another safety circuit cuts 
the voltages that may involve electrical shock by touch.

 DANGER!

 

The “SYSTEM STOP“ button does not disconnect the test system from the line 

voltage!

 

If a danger for life, machine or the product occurs, the “SYSTEM STOP“ button 
must be pressed! Thereby the test voltage in the DUT is disconnected.

 NOTE!

 

After resetting the “SYSTEM STOP“ button, the test system must be restarted 
before continuing operation is possible.
