1. PRECAUTIONS AND SAFETY MEASURES
The instrument has been designed in compliance with guidelines IEC/EN61557, BS7671
17th and 18th editions and IEC/EN61010, relevant to electronic measuring instruments.
Before and after carrying out the measurements, carefully observe the following
instructions:
Do not carry out any voltage or current measurement in humid environments.
Do not carry out any measurements in case gas, explosive materials or flammables are
present, or in dusty environments.
Avoid any contact with the circuit to be measured if no measurements are being carried
out.
Avoid contact with exposed metal parts, with unused measuring leads, etc.
Do not carry out any measurement in case you find anomalies in the instrument such
as deformations, breaks, substance leaks, absence of display on the screen, etc.
Pay special attention when measuring voltages higher than 25V in special
environments (such as construction sites, swimming pools, etc.) and higher than 50V in
normal environments, since a risk of electrical shock exists.
Only use original accessories.
The following symbols are used in this manual:
CAUTION: observe the instructions given in this manual; improper use could
damage the instrument, its components or create dangerous situations for the
operator
High voltage danger: electrical shock hazard
Double insulation
AC voltage or current
DC voltage or current
Connection to earth
The symbol indicates that the instrument must not be connected to systems with
phase-to-phase rated delta voltage higher than 415V
1.1. PRELIMINARY INSTRUCTIONS
This instrument has been designed for use in the environmental conditions specified in
§ 10.4.1. Do not use in different environmental conditions.
The instrument may be used for measuring and verifying the safety of electrical
systems. Do not use on systems exceeding the limit values specified in § 10.1
We recommend following the normal safety rules devised to protect the user against
dangerous currents and the instrument against incorrect use.
Only the accessories supplied with the instrument guarantee compliance with safety
standards. They must be in good conditions and be replaced with identical models,
when necessary.
Make sure the batteries are correctly installed.
Before connecting the test leads to the circuit being measured, check that the desired
function has been selected.

EASYTEST-COMBI519
EN - 5
1.2. DURING USE
Please carefully read the following recommendations and instructions:
CAUTION
Failure to comply with the caution notes and/or instructions may damage
the instrument and/or its components or be a source of danger for the
operator.
Before changing function, disconnect the test leads from the circuit under test.
When the instrument is connected to the circuit under test, never touch any terminal,
even if unused.
Avoid measuring resistance if external voltages are present. Even if the instrument is
protected, excessive voltage could cause damage.
1.3. AFTER USE
When measurements are completed, turn off the instrument by pressing and holding the
ON/OFF key for some seconds. If the instrument is not to be used for a long time, remove
the batteries and follow the instructions given in § 3.3.
1.4. DEFINITION OF MEASUREMENT (OVERVOLTAGE) CATEGORY
Standard “IEC/EN61010-1: Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement,
control and laboratory use, Part 1: General requirements” defines what measurement
category, commonly called overvoltage category, is. § 6.7.4: Measured circuits, reads:
circuits are divided into the following measurement categories:
Measurement category IV is for measurements performed at the source of a low-
voltage installation.
Examples are electricity meters and measurements on primary overcurrent protection
devices and ripple control units.
Measurement category III is for measurements performed on installations inside
buildings.
Examples are measurements on distribution boards, circuit breakers, wiring, including
cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches, socket-outlets in fixed installation, and
equipment for industrial use and some other equipment, for example, stationary motors
with permanent connection to fixed installation.
Measurement category II is for measurements performed on circuits directly
connected to the low-voltage installation.
Examples are measurements on household appliances, portable tools and similar
equipment.
Measurement category I is for measurements performed on circuits not directly
connected to MAINS.
Examples are measurements on circuits not derived from MAINS, and specially
protected (internal) MAINS-derived circuits. In the latter case, transient stresses
are variable; for that reason, the standard requires that the transient withstand
capability of the equipment is made known to the user.

5.1.3. Electrical system
Move the cursor to Electrical system by means of the arrow
keys (,) and confirm with ENTER. Subsequently, the
display shows the screen which allows setting the following
parameters:
Vnom Phase-Neutral or Phase-PE nominal voltage
(110V,115V,120V,127V,133V,220V,230V,240V) to be
used in the calculation of prospective short-circuit current
Frequency system frequency (50Hz, 60Hz)
System type of electric power supply system (TT, TN
or IT)
Contact Volt limit of contact voltage (25V, 50V)
I RCD type of trip-out RCD current visualization (Real,
Nom). With the “Nom” option, the instrument shows the
normalized value of trip-out current (referred to the
nominal current). Example: for RCD type A with
Idn=30mA, the actual value of normalized trip-out current
can be up to 30mA. With the “Real” option, the instrument
shows the actual value of trip-out current by considering
the coefficients indicated by guidelines IEC/EN61008 and
IEC/EN61009 (1.414 for RCD type A, 1 for RCD type AC,
2 for RCD type B). Example: for RCD type A with
Idn=30mA, the actual value of trip-out current can be up to
30mA * 1.414 = 42mA.
RCD/RCCB When selecting the “RCD” option, the
instrument performs the tripping time test with all
multipliers in normal conditions. When selecting the
“RCCB” option, only for 30mA devices, the instrument
performs the tripping time test with x5 multipliers with a
test current of 250mA (type AC) and 350mA (type A).
Isc Factor (only for Norway) possibility to select the
value of the ISC factor (0.01 ÷ 1.00) to be used in the
calculation of prospective short-circuit current.

6. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1. AUTO: AUTOMATIC TEST SEQUENCE (RA , RCD, M)
This function allows performing the following measurements in an automatic sequence:
Overall earth resistance without causing the RCD’s tripping (Ra )
Tripping current and tripping time of General RCDs type A ( ), AC ( ) or B ( )
Insulation resistance with test voltages 50, 100, 250, 500, 1000 VDC
CAUTION
Some combinations of test parameters could be unavailable in compliance with
the technical specifications of the instrument and the RCD tables (see § 10.1 –
empty cells of RCD tables mean unavailable situations)
CAUTION
Testing the RCD’s tripping time causes the RCD’s tripping. Therefore, check
that there are NO users or loads connected downstream of the RCD
being tested which could be damaged by a system downtime. Disconnect
all loads connected downstream of the RCD as they could produce leakage
currents further to those produced by the instrument, thus invalidating the
results of the test.

Type The virtual key enables the selection of the RCD type, which may be: AC
(), A () or B ( )
Vtest This key allows selecting the DC test voltage generated during
measurement. The following values are available: 50V, 100V, 250V, 500V, 1000V.
Lim This key allows the selection of the minimum limit threshold in order to
consider the insulation measurement correct. The following values are available:
0.05M, 0.10M, 0.23M, 0.25M, 0.50M, 1.00M, 100M.
CAUTION
Make sure to select the correct value when setting the RCD’s test current.
If setting a current higher than the nominal current of the device being
tested, the RCD would be tested at a current higher than the correct one,
thus facilitating a faster tripping of the switch.
The “ ” symbol indicates that the test cables or the plug cable have
already been calibrated in the LOOP section (see § 6.7.2). The AUTO
function takes this value as a reference.
3. Insert the green, blue and black connectors of the three-pin plug cable into the
corresponding inputs B1, B3 and B4 of the instrument. As an alternative, use the
single cables and apply the relevant alligator clips to the free ends of the cables. It is
also possible to use the remote switch probe by inserting its multipolar connector into
the input B1. Connect the plug, the alligator clips or the remote switch probe to the
electrical mains according to Fig. 4 or Fig. 5
