SAFETY WARNINGS

Safety Warnings

and 

Precautions

must be read and understood before the instrument is used. They 

must

be observed during use.

Continuity of protective conductors and earthed equipotential bonding of new or modified installations 

must

be verified 

before

carrying out RCD tests,

or earth fault loop impedance tests.

Do not leave the instrument connected to the mains supply when not in use.

Circuit connections and exposed metalwork of an installation or equipment under test must not be touched.

Ensure that hands remain behind guards of probes/clips when testing.

The instrument should 

not

be used if any part of it is damaged.

Test leads, probes and crocodile clips 

must

be in good order, clean and with no broken or cracked insulation.

The battery cover must be in place whilst conducting tests.

Voltage indicator LED’s cannot reveal a N-PE supply reversal.

National Safety Authorities may recommend the use of fused test leads when measuring voltage on high-energy systems.

When making a 2 wire measurement with the 3 wire lead set, for safety reasons the black test lead should be connected together with the green test.

2

Users of this equipment and/or their employers are reminded that Health and Safety Legislation requires them to carry out valid risk assessments of all

electrical work so as to identify potential sources of electrical danger and risk of electrical injury such as inadvertent short circuits.

Some national safety authorities recommend fused leads for voltage measurement on high energy systems. If RCD or Loop tests are made it may cause the

fuse to rupture, and so they must be used with caution on voltage testing.

NOTE

THE INSTRUMENT MUST ONLY BE USED BY SUITABLY TRAINED AND COMPETENT PERSONS.
