SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This chapter contains important safety
instructions that you must follow during
operation and storage. Read the following before
any operation to ensure your safety and to keep
the instrument in the best possible condition.
Safety Symbols
These safety symbols may appear in this manual or on the
instrument.
WARNING
Warning: Identifies conditions or practices that
could result in injury or loss of life.
CAUTION
Caution: Identifies conditions or practices that
could result in damage to the instrument or to
other properties.
DANGER High Voltage
Attention Refer to the Manual

Do not dispose electronic equipment as unsorted
municipal waste. Please use a separate collection
facility or contact the supplier from which this
instrument was purchased.
Safety Guidelines
General
Guideline
CAUTION
Do not place any heavy object on the
instrument.
Avoid severe impact or rough handling that
leads to damaging the instrument.
Do not discharge static electricity to the
instrument.
Use only mating connectors, not bare wires, for
the terminals.
Do not block the cooling fan opening.
Do not disassemble the GPT-10000 unless you
are qualified.
(Measurement categories) EN 61010-1:2010 specifies the
measurement categories and their requirements as follows. The
GPT-10000 does not fall under category II, III or IV.
Measurement category IV is for measurement performed at the
source of low-voltage installation.
Measurement category III is for measurement performed in the
building installation.
Measurement category II is for measurement performed on the
circuits directly connected to the low voltage installation.
Power Supply
WARNING
AC Input voltage range:
AC 100V –240V ± 10%
Frequency: 50Hz/60Hz
To avoid electrical shock connect the protective
grounding conductor of the AC power cord to
an earth ground.

Cleaning the
GPT-10000
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning.
Use a soft cloth dampened in a solution of mild
detergent and water. Do not spray any liquid.
Do not use chemicals containing harsh material
such as benzene, toluene, xylene, and acetone.
Operation
Environment
Location: Indoor, no direct sunlight, dust free,
almost non-conductive pollution (Note below)
Relative Humidity: ≤70% (no condensation)
Altitude: < 2000m
Temperature: 0˚C~40˚C
(Pollution Degree) EN 61010-1:2010 specifies the pollution degrees
and their requirements as follows. The GPT-12000 falls under
degree 2.
Pollution refers to “addition of foreign matter, solid, liquid, or
gaseous (ionized gases), that may produce a reduction of dielectric
strength or surface resistivity”.
Pollution degree 1: No pollution or only dry, non-conductive
pollution occurs. The pollution has no influence.
Pollution degree 2: Normally only non-conductive pollution
occurs. Occasionally, however, a temporary conductivity caused
by condensation must be expected.
Pollution degree 3: Conductive pollution occurs, or dry, non-
conductive pollution occurs which becomes conductive due to
condensation which is expected. In such conditions, equipment
is normally protected against exposure to direct sunlight,
precipitation, and full wind pressure, but neither temperature
nor humidity is controlled.
Storage
environment
Location: Indoor
Temperature: -10°C to 70°C
Relative Humidity: ≤ 85% (no condensation)
Disposal
Do not dispose this instrument as unsorted
municipal waste. Please use a separate collection
facility or contact the supplier from which this
instrument was purchased. Please make sure
discarded electrical waste is properly recycled to
reduce environmental impact.

INTRODUCTION
This Quick Start Guide is intended as a fast introduction to
operating the GPT-12000 Series Safety Testers. This Quick Start
Guide assumes that the user is familiar with safety testers.
For comprehensive instructions on the GPT-12000 Series, please see
the User Manual, located on the accompanying CD.
GPT-12000 Series Overview
The GPT-12000 Series Safety Testers are AC/DC withstanding
voltage, insulation resistance, ground bond and continuity safety
testers.
The GPT-12001 is AC withstanding voltage and continuity tester,
the GPT-12002 is AC/DC withstanding voltage and continuity
tester and the GPT-12003 is AC/DC withstanding voltage,
insulation resistance and continuity tester. The GPT-12004 includes
all the test functions of the other models, plus the ground bond
testing.
Note: Throughout this quick guide, the terms ACW, DCW, IR, GB
and CONT refer to AC Withstanding, DC Withstanding, Insulation
Resistance, Ground Bond and Continuity testing, respectively.
