12
/ 98 822-175-2
2.3.3 Checking and maintaining the safety devices
The safety devices must be inspected regularly for proper condition and function. The
Syscompact 2000 M pro must not be operated in the case of defects or non-functional safety
devices.
The safety devices must not be changed, bridged or switched off.
2.3.4 No operation during condensation
Condensation can form in devices and systems due to temperature fluctuations and high air
humidity, which in some components can result in leakage currents, flashovers and
short-circuits.
Maximum danger arises when relatively high air humidity and temperature fluctuations occur
in a device consecutively, which is the case when storing the system or device in an unheated
room or when placed outdoors, for example. When the system or device is then exposed to a
high ambient temperature, the cold device surfaces cool the air in the immediate vicinity, which
leads to formation of condensation even inside the device.
During this process, two factors are crucial:
The higher the relative air humidity, the faster the dew point is reached and water is
condensed.
The higher the temperature difference between the surfaces and the ambient air, the
stronger the tendency for condensation.
Always prevent condensation in devices. Temper the device and system before and during
the measurements so that no condensation occurs.
2.3.5 No operation in areas with risk of explosion and fire
Measurements in direct contact with water, in environments with explosive gases and in areas
with fire risks are not permitted. Possible danger areas include e.g. chemical factories,
refineries, paint factories, paint shops, cleaning plants, mills and stores of milled products,
tank and loading plants for combustible gases, liquids and solid matter.
2.3.6 Dangers when working with high voltage
When performing tests and measurements with the system, dangerous - at times a very high -
voltage is generated that is fed to the test object via an HV connection cable.
Personnel need to pay special attention and must be very careful while working with high
electric voltage.
Commissioning and operation of the system are permitted only in compliance with the
EN 50110 and EN 50191 (EU/EFTA countries) or with standards applicable in your country.
Observe 5 safety rules
Comply with the following safety rules before beginning tasks in and on the electrical plant:
1. Disconnect the test object.
2. Secure against re-connection.
3. Verify absence of operating voltage.
4. Earth and short all phases.
5. Provide protection against adjacent live parts.

Syscompact 2000 M pro For your safety
822-175-2 13 / 98
DANGER
High electric voltage
Danger to life or risk of injury due to electric shock.
Before commencing work, the operator must assess the risks for the
specific working conditions. Protective measures are based on the
risk assessment and must be followed within the workplace.
Connect the system as described in this user manual.
In particular earth the test object and system properly.
Observe the warning and safety signs on the system. Always check
whether the warning signs are available and are legible.
Never put the safety devices out of operation. It is forbidden to
bypass the safety devices.
Ensure that adjacent live parts are secured against accidental
contact and flashovers with suitable covers (insulation mats,
insulating safety plates).
Cordon off all metal parts in the area of the test object terminals
(connection point and far end). Insulate and earth the metal parts to
avoid dangerous charges.
After a measurement - after switching off the device or system - the test
object can still be live with dangerous voltage.
Before lifting the safety measures, all live parts must compulsorily be
discharged, earthed and short-circuited.
DANGER
Arcing fault when establishing a connection
Danger of burn injuries and electro-ophthalmia due to arcing fault.
Use suitable personal protective equipment to protect against arcing
faults.
Cover the adjacent live parts with an insulating material.

2.3.7 Danger during the system’s surge mode
WARNING
Potential differences between the system and the earth
Danger to life or risk of injury due to electric shock.
Potential differences between the system and the earth are possible
during surge mode when the system is positioned on the cable route.
The greatest potential difference and dangerous contact voltage will
occur in the case of a fault due to earth contact in a plastic-insulated low
voltage cable without shielding.
Fault is near the system:
Voltage drops at the fault location. There is risk of electric shock if a
person is standing over the fault location and touches the system
connected to the station earth.
Fault is far away from the system:
As the system is at the same potential as the station earth, there can be
a voltage difference between the system and the neutral earth in the
event of a cable fault, which can lead to rising potential of the station
earth. There is risk of electric shock if a person touches the system
connected to the station earth.
Place the system at a distance of several meters to the cable route
or cable fault location.
When positioning over the cable route, do not use measurement
methods that use a surge voltage and do not isolate the system.
If it is not possible to avoid the hazard by means of a potential increase,
take the following safety measures:
If operating in ‘surge mode’, cordon off the system at distance of at
least 1.5 m.
During surge mode, people may only stand outside the cordoned off
area.

2.3.8 Maximum permissible output current in DC voltage mode
NOTICE
The device may be damaged by an excessive output current
An excessive output current during DC voltage mode can generate high thermal
loads. This will damage the transformer.
When using DC voltage mode, observe the maximum permissible output current.
The following illustrates the maximum permissible output current depending on the output
voltage (DC voltage).
Examples of max. permissible output currents:
Output voltage (DC) Maximum output current
Up to 8 kV 16 mA
10 kV 5 mA
12 kV 2.5 mA
16 kV 2 mA
2.3.9 TDR measurement on live cables
The IRG 2000 may only be used on live cables in the following scenarios:
For TDR measurements (methods: TDR, TDR Continuous and TDR Trigger)
If the voltage-proof input is enabled (parameter Voltage proof > On)
In electric circuits up to AC 400 V
Note that working on live parts and plants can be fundamentally dangerous.

For your safety Syscompact 2000 M pro
16
/ 98 822-175-2
When connecting the device to the test object, during the preparation and while performing the
measurement, the user can come close to live parts. In so doing, there is danger of touching
the active parts directly or indirectly.
DANGER
Working in the vicinity of adjacent live parts
Danger to life or risk of injury due to electric shock.
Only use the supplied TDR connection cable with fuses.
If the TDR connection cable is used without a fuse or with another
type of fuse, the IRG 2000 must not be connected to a live cable.
During connection, implementation and monitoring of the
measurement, protection must be guaranteed for all plant parts,
either
through safety devices, insulating cover material
or by adhering to the necessary safety distances. Safety
distances depend on the voltage level, plant model, personnel
qualification and available space.
In this regard, comply with EN 50110 or the applicable standards in
your country as well as the relevant national and local accident
prevention regulations.
Working in the vicinity of open cables or faulty systems is forbidden.
Notify the responsible authorities immediately.
Use suitable personal protective equipment to protect against arcing
faults.
To assess the local conditions adequately, provide sufficient lighting
at the work place.
2.3.10 Dangers from road traffic
As tasks with systems are often carried out in the road traffic area, when assessing the
danger also consider this danger area.
When setting up the system, secure the work place and during testing and measurement
tasks, observe the country-specific road traffic regulations, applicable national work safety
and accident prevention regulations and local conditions.
Moreover, dangers for the test personnel and road users must be ruled out. Test personnel
must wear high visibility clothing that can be identified clearly by road users.
2.3.11 Guaranteeing immediate measures in an emergency
The device may be operated only if a second person with visual and audio contact to the tester
is present and is in the position to detect possible dangers and to act immediately and
properly.
2.3.12 Safety locking feature against unauthorised operation
