6.4. LO
: CONTINUITY OF PROTECTIVE CONDUCTORS WITH 10A
This function allows measuring the resistance of protective and equipotential conductors
with a test current >10A by using the Lo
10A optional accessory EQUITEST connected
to the instrument through the C2050 cable. The optional accessory EQUITEST must be
directly powered by the mains on which measurements are performed. For detailed
information, please refer to the user manual of this EQUITEST accessory.
CAUTION
•
The instrument can be used for measurements on installations with
overvoltage category CAT IV 300V to earth and max 415V between
inputs.
•
We recommend holding the alligator clip respecting the safety area
created by the hand protection (see § 4.2).
•
Check that no voltage is present at the ends of the item to be tested
before carrying out a continuity test.
The results may be influenced by the presence of auxiliary circuits
connected in parallel with the item to be tested or by transient currents.
•
Continuity test is carried out by supplying a current
higher than 10A
in
case the resistance does not exceed ca. 0.7
(including resistance of
the test cables).
The 4-wire method allows extending the test leads
without any preliminary calibration.

3. Connect the EQUITEST accessory to the mains
(230/240V
