METER PROBE SET-UP & TESTING:
WARNING
See “Product Safety Information”, page 4.
See “Inspection & Maintenance”, page 4.
The Meter Probe completes a self-check each time the selector switch is moved
from one position to another. It displays the number 510 and blinks 0, 120, 240
phase sequence indicator lights followed by a blinking
D/Y
(Delta/ Wye
Transformation) indicator light. The internal 9V battery voltage should be
checked by turning the rotary selector switch to the
T
position and holding for
several seconds until the indicator lights stop blinking. If the battery voltage
displayed is less than 7.0 volts, shown on the meter as 07.0, the battery should
be replaced. A standard 9-volt battery is located behind the live line tool
attachment just below the battery label.
WARNING
Unit shall be tested before and after each use on a known voltage source.
Failure to do so could result in false negative indications.
TESTING PD800W METER PROBE ON KNOWN VOLTAGE:
1.
Turn the unit to the test position and verify a god battery voltage level.
2.
Turn the selector switch back to URD position.
3.
Turn on the known voltage source, Bierer offers several options, but we’ll
be using the 3kV power supply and Handheld Power Supply for this.
4.
Attach appropriate length live line tool attachment.
5.
If using the 3kV power supply, with the tip of the meter, depress the plunger
switch.
6.
If using the Handheld Power Supply, hold down the power button and make
contact with the metal disc at the end of the tester.
7.
An indication above 3kV on either tested indicates the unit is good.
Readings will vary depending on proximity to ground sources.
8.
Turn the power supply off and return to their storage containers.
9.
Meter is now ready for use.
Note:
if your PD800W meter probe is part of a PD800W set, you can also a Dual
Phase Power Supply to perform this test. See the PD800W Instruction Manual
page 6 for that test.
