GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

You have just acquired a portable digital multimeter and we thank you for your confidence.
This instrument complies with the specification of IEC publication 1010-1, concerning safety
requirements for electronic measuring apparatus. To get the best service from this
instrument, read carefully this user's manual and respect the detailed safety precautions.
1.1.

Precautions and safety measures

1.1.1. Before use
- This device can be used for measurements on category ΙΙΙ installations, pollution
rating 2, for voltages never exceeding 600 V (AC or DC) relative to the earth.
- Definition of overvoltage categories (cf. publication IEC 664-1) :
CAT I :
CAT II :
CAT III : The circuits of CAT III are power supply circuits of power equipment
CAT IV : The circuits of CAT IV may comprise very important transient over-
For your own safety, only use the measuring probes which have been delivered with
the instrument : they conform to the IEC 1010-1 safety standard. Before use, check
that they are in good condition.
1.1.2. During use
Test equipment risk assessment
are reminded that Health and Safety Legislation require them to carry out a valid
risk assessment of all electrical work so as to identify potential sources of
electrical danger and risk of electrical injury such as from inadvertent short
circuits. Where the assessment show that the risk is significant then the use of
fused test leads constructed in accordance with the HSE guidance note GS38
"Electrical Test Equipment for use by Electricians" should be used.
Never exceed the protection limit values indicated in the specifications for each type
of measurement.
When the multimeter is linked to measurement circuits, do not touch unused
terminals.
20
The circuits of CAT I are protected by measures limiting transient
overvoltages to appropriate low level.
Example : protected electronic circuits
The circuits of CAT II are power supply circuits of appliances or portable
equipment with transient overvoltages of an average level.
Example : appliances and portable equipment
with important transient overvoltages.
Example : fixed installation or industrial equipment
voltages.
Example : primary supply level
