1.1. Precautions safety measures
1.1.1. Preliminary
* As the possibilities of high transient overvoltages occurred in today’s power systems increase, more
stringent safety standards are set for the electrical test equipment. Transients on electrical systems(power
grid, feeder or branch circuits) will trigger a series of incidents that may result in serious personal injury.
To protect you against transients, safety must be built into the test equipment.
Overvoltage category /// In brief /// Examples
- CATI/// Electronic /// • Protected electronic equipment.
• Equipment connected to (source) circuits in which measures are taken to limit transient overvoltages to
an appropriately low level.
• Any high-voltage, low-energy source derived from a highwinding resistance transformer, such as the
high-voltage section of a copier.
- CATII/// Single-phase receptacle connected loads /// • Appliance, portable tools, and other household and
similar loads.
