10.4.1 Protective conductor current (substitute leakage current)
The limit value is:
3.5 mA (PC I)
The protective conductor current for devices with heating elements
having a total power greater than 3.5 kW must not be greater than
1 mA/kW heating power, up to a maximum value of 10 mA.
The [OK] button takes you further to the measuring display „Protective
conductor current“ (according to the substitute leakage current method).
Here, too, the corresponding limit value is displayed beside the measured
value (Fig. 30).

10.4.2 Protective conductor current
(compare with Point 10.41)
The limit value is:
3.5 mA (PC I)
The protective conductor current for devices with heating elements
having a total power greater than 3.5 kW must not be greater than
1 mA/kW heating power, up to a maximum value of 10 mA.
If you have selected a test procedure
without insulation resistance
in the
„Settings for measuring“ screen, the tester changes to measuring the
protective conductor current (Points 3 - Insulation resistance and 4a -
Substitute leakage current, are omitted).
Caution! The test object is supplied with mains voltage
during the test.
After pressing the [OK] button you will see a warning about the connection
to the mains voltage (Fig. 31).
