Cable locator
3) Use
The following instructions must be followed to avoid electric shock, short
circuit, or explosion:
• This cable locator can be used in live parts, but measures must be taken
according to industrial safety codes to avoid electric shock and damage.
• To avoid electric shocks, you must pay special attention to the VDE and
safety regulations in force regarding excessive contact voltages, when
working with voltages that exceed 120V (60V) DC or 50V (25V) rms AC.
Values in parentheses are valid for limited scopes (such as medicine and
agriculture).
• Never try to put both battery poles in contact, for example by connecting a
cable. Never throw the battery into a fire, or it could cause an explosion.
• When replacing or changing the battery, be sure to use the correct polarity.
Batteries with reversed polarity may destroy the instrument. They could also
explode or catch fire.
Attention!
• Measurements near electrical installations that may pose a hazard should
only be carried out under the supervision of the responsible electrician.
• When the product is used to test a live line, make sure that the test
connectors are disconnected from the object under test before connecting
or disconnecting the test lead from the emitter, and remember that people
around must be well protected.
• Never try to remove the battery posts! The battery contains very strong
chemical agents. Danger of corrosion! If the contents of the battery come
into contact with the eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and
consult a doctor.
• Since the connection of the emitter with the mains can generate current in
the circuit at milliamp level, in the case of alignment to the emitter ground,
only the neutral conductor can be connected. If the emitter connection is
made between phase and the protective conductor, the functional safety of
the production conductor must first be tested, in compliance with DIN VDE
0100. The reason is that when connecting the -Continues-
