Precautionsfor use
Thesesafety instructions must be respected to assure the personal safety and the environment of use. If
youdo not comply with them, there is a risk of electric shock, explosion or re.
Ifyou use these instruments other than as specied or without observing the elementary safety rules, the
protectionthey provide may be compromised, endangering you.
Thesa fety of any system which mayinclude th ese leads orac cessoriesis the responsibility of the
assemblerof the system.
Each time before use, always check that the insulation of the leads or accessories is in good
condition.Any element whose insulation is damaged (even partially) must be removed from use and
scrapped.A change of color of the insulating material is an indication of deterioration.
Thesteady-state voltages, currents, and measurement categories are marked on the instruments,on
thecords, and on the accessories. Comply with these values.
Use specic individual safety protections when hazardous live parts can be accessible in the
installationwhere the measure is performed
Before using your instrument,check that it is in good working order (for example, by measuring a
knowndangerous voltage).
Ifthe manual states how to replace the fuse(s) of your instrument, use only the recommended fuses.
Beforereplacing the batteries (rechargeable or not), disconnect the leads of your instrument.
The use of a measurement instrument, a lead or an accessory with a lower
categoryor voltage downgrades the use of the assembly (instrument + lead +
accessory)to the lowest category and/or operating voltage.
Using a measuring instrument in a category II or III or IV environment can be dangerous. In such
measurement environments, the operators must be trained and/or accredited and/or informed of the
safetymeasures to be taken.
Measurementcategories:
CATII: Measurementcategory II is for measurements performed on circuits directly connected to the
lowvoltage installation
Examples:measurements on household appliances and portable tools.
CATIII:Measurement category III is for measurement performed in the building installation
Examples:distribution boards, circuit-breakers, machine or industrial equipment with permanent
connectionto the xed installation.
CATIV:MeasurementcategoryIVisfor measurementsperformedatthesourceofthelow-voltageinstallation.
Example: meters and measurements on primary overcurrent protection devices and ripple
controlunits.
Cleaning
Disconnectthe leads or the test accessories
Use a soft cloth, dampened withsoapy water. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry rapidly with a dry
clothor forced air. Do not use alcohol, solvents, or hydrocarbons.
Donot modify the leads or accessories. Any non-compliant repairs can cause risks of electric shock
orburns.
