Measurement Category
To ensure safe operation of measuring instruments, IEC 61010
establishes safety standards for various electrical environments,
categorized as O to CAT IV, and called measurement categories.
Higher-numbered categories correspond to electrical environments
with greater momentary energy, so a measuring instrument
designed for CAT III environments can endure greater momentary
energy than one designed for CAT II.
O
: Circuits which are not directly connected to the mains
power supply.
CAT II : Electrical circuits of equipment connected to an AC
electrical outlet by a power cord.
CAT III : Primary electrical circuits of the equipment connected
directly to the distribution panel, and feeders from the
distribution panel to outlets.
CAT IV : The circuit from the service drop to the service entrance,
and to the power meter and primary over-current
protection device (distribution panel).
O: Device which is
not directly
connected to the
mains power supply
