DEFINITIONS

POLLUTION (P)

 – addition of foreign matter solid, liquid or gaseous (ionized 

 gases), that may product a reduction of dielectric strength or surface 

resistivity.
• Degree 2 (P2) – only non-conductive pollution occurs except that 

occasionally a temporary conductivity caused by condensation is 

expected.

MEASUREMENT CATEGORY (CAT)

 – classification of testing and measuring 

circuit according to the type of mains circuits to which they are intended to
