1.0 Introduction
The PAC-3P is a portable, battery powered 3 phase stand-alone test instrument for
performing earth continuity and earth leakage current tests as required by AS/NZS 3760,
including:
Earth continuity @ 200mA
Leakage Current Test – Mains-powered
The unit conducts a sequence test, starting with an earth continuity test and then proceeding
with the leakage test. It indicates Pass/Fail and the actual measured readings on the LCD
display and provides on-screen user prompts. It includes safety features such as preventing
a leakage current test in event of a failed earth continuity test result. 20A and 32A extension
lead test adaptor is included with an earth test pin terminal, which eliminates the need for
probing of the extension lead earth.
