electrical signals that are rated
Measurement Category I and Measurement
Category II, as described in the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Standard
IEC 60664. Most measurement, control, and
data I/O signals are Measurement Category
I and must not be directly connected to
mains voltage or to voltage sources with
high transient over-voltages. Measurement
Category II connections require protection
for high transient over-voltages often
