Error Codes

Various error conditions are detected by the tester and are indicated with the 

W

 icon, 

“Err”, and an error number on the primary display. See table below. These error conditions 
disable testing and, if necessary, stop a running test.

Solution

Self-test Fails

1

Return the tester to your distributor or Beha-Amprobe.

Over-temp

2

Wait while the tester cools down.

Fault Voltage

4

Check the installation, in particular, the voltage 
between N and PE.

Excessive Noise

5

Switch off all appliances (Loop, RCD measurements)
