Precautions For Use; Measurement Categories - Berner bis 1000V Instrucciones De Manejo

This instrument is compliant with the NF EN 61010-1 + NF EN
61010-2-030 safety standard for 1000 V voltages in category III or
600 V in category IV at an altitude below 2000 m, indoors, and with
a maximum pollution level of 2.
Failure to comply with safety instructions can create a risk of
electric shock, fire, explosion and destruction of the instrument or
the installations.
•
Do not use the instrument in an explosive atmosphere or in
the presence of inflammable gas or smoke.
•
Do not use the instrument on networks with a rated voltage
or category higher than those mentioned.
•
Respect the maximum rated voltages and currents
between terminals and in relation to the earth.
•
Do not use the instrument if it seems damaged, incomplete
or incorrectly closed.
•
Before each use, check the condition of the cable insulation,
the unit and the accessories. All elements on which the
insulation is damaged (even partially) must be put out of
service for repair or disposed of as waste.
•
Use cables and accessories for voltages according to IEC
61010-031 and measurement categories at least equal to those
of the instrument.
•
Respect the environmental conditions of use.
•
Strictly comply with the fuse specifications. Disconnect all
cables before opening the fuse access cover.
•
Do not modify the instrument and do not replace
components
adjustments must be carried out by qualified, approved
personnel.
•
Replace the battery as soon as the
appears on the display. Disconnect all cables before
opening the battery access cover.
Use personal protection equipment when conditions require it.
•
•
Do not place your hands close to instrument terminals
that are in use.
•
When handling sensors or test probes, do not place
fingers beyond the physical finger guard.
CAT II: Test and measurement circuits directly connected to points of use (power
outlets and other similar points) on the low-voltage network.
E.g. Measurements on circuits in network for household appliances, portable tools
and other similar instruments.
CAT III: Test and measurement circuits connected to parts of the building's low-
voltage network installation.
E.g. Measurements on distribution switchboards (including secondary meters), the
circuit breakers, cabling including cables, busbars, junction boxes, circuit breakers,
power outlets in the fixed installation and industrial instruments and other
equipment such as motors permanently connected to the fixed installation
CAT IV: Test and measurement circuits connected to the source of the building's
low-voltage network installation.
