1. INTRODUCTION
This Meter is a handheld and battery
operated instrument that is designed and
tested according to IEC Publication 1010-
1 (EN 61010-1) (Overvoltage Category III),
the EMC Directive (EN 50081-1 and EN
50082-1) and other safety standards (see
“Specifications”).
2. SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Before using this Meter, read the following
safety information carefully. In this manual,
the word “WARNING” is used for conditions
and actions that pose hazard(s) to the user,
the word “CAUTION” is used for conditions
and actions that may damage this Meter.
• Do not try to measure any voltage that
exceeds 1000V DC or 750V AC RMS.
• Voltages above 60V DC or 25V AC RMS
may create a serious shock hazard.
• Do not attempt to use this Meter if either
the Meter or the test leads have been
damaged.
• Turn off power the circuit under test
before cutting, desoldering, or breaking
the circuit. Small amounts of current can
be dangerous.
• Disconnect the live test lead before
disconnecting the common test lead.
• When using the test leads, keep your
fingers away from probe contacts. Always
grip behind the finger guards on the
probes.
• Use a current clap if measuring any
current above 10 Amps.
