WARNING
Warning against unauthorized manipulation or
improper use of the device or its components!
Opening, dismantling or unauthorized manipula-
tion of the device and its components which goes
beyond the mechanical, electrical or other operat-
ing limits indicated can lead to material damage or
injury, up to and including death.
· Only electrically qualified personnel are permit-
ted to work on the devices and their compo-
nents, assemblies, systems and current circuits.
· Always use your device or component only in
the manner described in the associated docu-
mentation.
· If there is discernible damage, send the device
or the component back to the manufacturer!
2.5 Electrically qualified personnel
To avoid bodily injury and material damage, only
electrically qualified personnel are permitted to
work on the devices and their components, mod-
ules, assemblies, systems and current circuits who
have knowledge of:
· The national and international accident preven-
tion regulations.
· Safety technology standards.
· Installation, commissioning, operation, discon-
nection, grounding and marking of electrical
equipment.
· The requirements concerning personal protective
equipment.
Electrically qualified persons within the scope
of the technical safety information of all usage
information associated with the device and its
components are persons who can furnish proof of
qualification as an electrically skilled person.
2.6 Warranty in the event of damage
Any unauthorized tampering with or use of the
device constitutes “misuse” and/or “negligence”
under the product’s warranty and thus voids the
warranty of any possible resulting damage. In this
regard, please take note of section „3.3 Intended
use“ on page 17.
2.7 Safety information for handling current
transformers and measurement devic-
es with residual current measurement
WARNING
Risk of injury due to large currents and high
electrical voltage on the current transformers!
Current transformers operated while open on the
secondary side (high voltage peaks pose a hazard
when touched) can result in severe bodily injury or
death.
· Avoid operating the current transformers while
open; short circuit the unloaded transformers!
· Before interrupting the current supply, short
circuit the secondary connections of the current
transformers. Switch any test switches that
automatically short circuit the secondary lines
of the current transformers to the “Test” status
(Check the test switch/short circuiting connec-
tion beforehand)!
· Only use current transformers with basic insula-
tion to IEC61010-1:2010!
· Caution, even current transformers rated as safe
for open operation can pose a hazard when
touched during operation while open!
· Make sure to mount screw terminals for the
current transformer connection on the meter
and, if necessary, fasten them with the enclosed
screws!
· Comply with the information and provisions in
the documentation of your current transformers!
CAUTION
Risk of injury or damage to the meter due to
high measurement currents at the connections
of the current transformers!
High measurement currents can cause tempera-
tures of up to 80°C (176°F) on the connections of
the current transformers
· Use wiring that is designed for an operating
temperature of at least 80°C (176°F)!
· The current transformers can be hot even after
the power supply has been switched off. Allow
the connections of the current transformers
and the connecting cables to cool down before
touching them!
WARNING
Risk of injury or damage to the meter due to
improper use!
Meters with residual current measurement can trig-
ger warning pulses if limit values are exceeded, and
these are used exclusively for monitoring residual
currents or failure monitoring. Use of the warning
pulses as a stand-alone protective device against
electrical shock can lead to injury and even death!
· Do not use devices with residual current mea-
surement as a stand-alone protective device.
Employ suitable protective devices for your
system!
