Definition of the measurement categories
Measurement category II: Measurements on circuits directly connected to low voltage
networks electrically via plug. Typical short-circuit current < 10 kA
Measurement category III: Measurements within the building installation (stationary con-
sumer devices with non-plug-in connection, distributor connection, permanently installed
equipment in the distributor).
Typical short-circuit current < 50 kA
Measurement category IV: Measurements at the source of the low voltage installation (me-
ters, mains connection, primary overcurrent protection). Typical short-circuit current >> 50 kA
To establish the measurement category in a combination of test lead and measuring in-
strument, the lowest category, of either the test lead or the measuring instrument, always
applies.
Replacing the battery
If the battery symbol
To do this, switch off the instrument and remove any test leads.
