Measurement Category II is for measurements performed on circuits
directly connected to the electrical distribution system. This category refers
to local-level electrical distribution, such as that provided by a standard
wall outlet (for example, 115 V for U.S. or 230 V for Europe). Do
not
use
this module with Measurement Category III or IV voltages
