5.7. CONTINUITY OF PROTECTIVE CONDUCTORS WITH 200MA
This function is performed in compliance with standard IEC/EN61557-4 and allows
measuring the continuity of protective and equipotential conductors. The following
operating modes are available:
AUTO
the test is activated by pressing key
GO/HOLD
and the result is immediately
displayed after comparing it with the set maximum threshold value.
Recommended mode
TMR
the test is carried out in a continuous mode for the duration (timer) set in range
1s ÷ 30s
, and the result is shown on the display after comparing it with the set
maximum threshold value.
ZERO
compensation of the resistance of the cables used for measurement. The
instrument automatically subtracts the value of cable resistance from the
measured resistance value. It is therefore necessary that this value is measured
(by means of the
ZERO
function) each time the test cables are changed or
extended.
AUTO mode
CAUTION
Check that the circuit being tested is not live and that all possible loads
normally connected to it are disconnected before carrying out insulation
measurement.
The continuity test is performed by supplying a current higher than 200mA for
resistances not higher than
5
(including the resistance of the measuring
cables). For higher resistance values, the instrument carries out the test with
a current lower than 200mA.
