user bears all risks.
Before the tester is switched on for the first time or after it has been transported, it needs to adapt to the
ambient temperature first. Please unpack the device and put it on a table. You should wait at least 30
minutes before switching it on.
The device must not be exposed to the condensation of water.
Attention!
We are pointing out that for the daily check of the testing device regarding its correct
functioning and accuracy, it is necessary to use a calibrated black box (test dummy). This black
box is connected to the test leads of the testing device and it is tested, whether the data of the
black box are the same as the measured values. In case the testing device has various
measuring ranges, it is necessary that for each measuring range the respective black box is
used.
In order to make sure that the comparison data are correct, the black box must be checked
annually.
For testing with the black-box, the testing device has a suitable program. Right after switching
on the testing device, this program asks the person who is doing the test to do the self-test with
the black-box. Only after the self-test has been completed correctly, the device enables itself for
further tests.
Please note: In the SetUp of the testing device it is possible for the user to deactivate the self-test.
However, doing this is not in accordance with the intended purpose of the device. If the self-test is
deactivated, there will also be a message on the display.
Attention!
We should like to point out: Every year and after every modification (repair), which could influence the
measuring equipment, the testing device must be calibrated and, if necessary, adjusted. The
supplier/manufacturer will test the device regarding its accuracy and confirm the calibration in a certificate.
Attention!
For test methods, their measuring ranges and accuracies, please refer to the enclosed calibration certificate.

2.4 Important information for users of high-voltage testing equipment
Caution! High voltage!
Touching high voltage can result in loss of life! Equipment, measure leads and accessories must be in
perfect condition and need to be checked regularly. The equipment may only be used in dry state and in dry
rooms. Only suitable qualified personnel or trained personnel under supervision of specialists must work on
this equipment.
2.4.1 Usage
The relevant regulations, above all VDE 0104 (EN 50191), must be followed strictly. Every day before
starting work, equipment, accessories and supply line must be visually examined to ensure their perfect
condition. Every user must be familiar to the safety instructions in this manual and should be aware of all
possible risks. He is obliged to protect himself and others against possible accidents. Because of the
necessary personal responsibility, all users must be selected carefully and need to be trained in detail at
least once a year.
The training must be put on record. Maintenance and alterations of the tester are reserved to the
manufacturer. (Unauthorized alterations endanger the safety). For checking, the test pistols can be sent
(postage paid) to the manufacturer.
2.4.2 Working with high-voltage test pistols
High-voltage test pistols are always delivered with connected high voltage cable.
Variant 1, testing with 2 safety test pistols:
You will have full accident protection if you always use the test pistols in pairs, one in each hand. It is very
dangerous to connect the test object tightly at one pole, working with only one test pistol or to take two
test pistols in one hand!
Variant 2, testing with one safety test pistol:
If the high-voltage test is performed with one high-voltage test pistol and one firmly connected pole, it is
absolutely necessary that a suitable safety device like a hand-switch cover is available for the second hand.
The hand switch, which must be activated during the test, ensures that the operator cannot touch the high
voltage. “Putting your second hand in the pocket” is hazardous and prohibited!
Do not touch the test object while it is being supplied with high voltage by the test pistols! Its insulation
could break down during the test. Do not test on metal surfaces (the voltage could be carried over).
During non-working time the high voltage must be switched off!
The test pistols are well insulated, but as protection-insulated devices not grounded. Therefore, the user
may feel a tingling or a slight vibration if, after switching-on the voltage, he doesn't hold the test pistol
tightly, or has a very short distance from the test pistol or from the supply cable. You can feel the electric
field. A capacitive blind current of max. 0.08 mA can be flowing via the capacity between the voltage-
carrying lead and the hand. (According to VDE 0104 / EN 50191, there is no danger up to 3.0 mA AC und
12mA DC!).

Safety and Functional Tester GLP2-i/e
During the test, test object and test leads must not be touched!
The safety measures required by law must be adhered to!
Schleich GmbH * D-58675 Hemer * 0049 / (0)2372 / 9498-0 * 0049 / (0)2372 / 9498-99 * http://www.schleich.com * [email protected] 18
Only use test pistols in perfect condition with new-value cables! Check test pistols and cable for obvious
damage every day before starting work! Faulty test pistols (even with the slightest fault at the device or at
the lead!) have to be put out of operation immediately and must be sent back to the manufacturer for
repair!
Attention!
For reasons of personal safety, a 3mA AC or 12mA DC test current limitation at the high-voltage test can
only be effected by means of hardware integrated in the testing device. An adjustment by software of the
maximum test current to 3mA or 12mA, at which the device is to switch off, does not serve for personal
safety, because the current may, for a short time, reach considerably higher values.
Only a limitation of the maximum possible current through hardware is allowed for personal protection.
This is done optionally inside the testing device by means of a resistor. Only in this case, the otherwise
necessary protection measures, as described in the VDE 0104 (EN 50191), can be reduced.
Test pistols with integrated push-button
If test pistols with integrated push-button are used, the test is started automatically by
activating the push-buttons of both test pistols. For this purpose, the lever at the test pistol needs to be
operated first, so that the test probe tip in the insulating tube is activated. Now the test probe tips must be
pressed on the test object. The push-buttons in the test pistols must be activated for the complete duration
of the test; otherwise, the test will be interrupted.
Fault analysis
If test pistols with integrated start switch or push-button are used and the test doesn’t start, for
finding out what the problem is, the test probe of the test pistol must be touched under no circumstances.
For checking the test pistols, they must always be disconnected from the tester. Only when they are
completely disconnected from the tester, they can be checked.

4.0 Introduction
4.1 General explanations
The tester GLP2 i/e has been designed for 2-pole test objects. I.e., the test object has only two connections
for voltage and maybe one PE connection.
As an option, it is also possible to test multi-pole test objects. In this case the tester would, for example, be
equipped with a matrix.
Depending on the configuration of the device, the test object can be connected either at a PE socket at the
front and/or at an industrial connection at the rear panel.
At the industrial connection, the test object is connected via a connection box or via a direct lead.
If, despite the industrial connector at the rear panel, the socket at the front panel is to be used, it will be
necessary to connect a bridge plug at the back. At this bridge plug, the contacts 6, 7 and 8 need to be
bridged. Otherwise it is not possible to perform a PE test at the front socket.
The PE test probe can be connected at the front panel via 19-pole round plug. Alternatively, it is possible to
connect a probe or a PE to the connection box.
The measuring process is based on the fully-or half-automatic process of the individual test methods one
after the other. The order of the process is determined by the user.
Example of a process:
1. PE test
2. Insulation resistance test
3. High-voltage test (if the device has additional high voltage / option)
4. Current-consumption test
The measuring process is therefore based on an automatic sequence of individual test steps.
It is possible to program up to 200 test steps in up to 200 individual test processes. The test processes are
loaded out of the tester database or the remote-control software NetCom XI transmits them via the
interface.
4.2 Basic test process
A test process always follows the same basic pattern. The test process can be divided into the following
steps:
1. put test object into fixture or connect it
2. depending on the extent of danger, close protection cover or press 2-hand start
3. the individual test steps are executed successively (perhaps scanning PE points)
4. open protection cover (see point 2)
5. remove test object from the fixture or disconnect it
6. perhaps print out stickers or protocols
7. perhaps data transfer to the PC
After this, the above described test process is repeated.
