Safety Measures
In order to avoid instrument damage, it is advi-
sed to remove batteries when not using the in-
strument over a certain period of time. Howe-
ver, should the instrument be contaminated by
leaking battery cells, you are kindly requested to
return it to the factory for cleaning and inspec-
tion.
Instruments must be stored in dry and closed areas.
In the case of an instrument being transported in ex-
treme temperatures, a recovery time of minimum 2
hours is required prior to instrument operation.
3.0 Safety Measures
The UNITEST TELARIS LOOP has been designed
and checked in accordance with the safety regulati-
ons for Electronic Test and Measurement Instru-
ments EN 61010 and IEC 1010, and left our factory
in a safe and perfect condition. To maintain this con-
dition the user must pay attention to the safety re-
ferences contained in this instruction manual.
The respective accident prevention regulations
established by the professional associations re-
garding electrical systems and equipment must
be strictly met for all tasks.
In order to avoid electrical shock, the valid sa-
fety and VDE regulations regarding excessive
contact voltages must receive the utmost atten-
tion, when working with voltages exceeding
120V (60V) DC or 50V (25V)rms AC. The values
in brackets are valid for limited ranges (eg for
medicine and agriculture).
If the operator’s safety can no longer be gua-
ranteed, the instrument is to be put out of ser-
vice and protected against use. The safety is no
longer guaranteed, if the instrument:
•shows obvious damage
• does not carry out the desired measurement.
• has been stored for too long under unfavou-
rable conditions.
•has been subjected to mechanical stress du-
ring transport.
The instrument may only be used within the
operating ranges as specified in the technical
data section.
Avoid any heating up of the instrument by direct
sunlight to ensure perfect functioning and long
instrument life.
The Earth Loop Resistance Measurement In-
strument complies with the overvoltage class
CAT III / 300V and may only be used for mains
systems of maximum 230 V (fused at maximum
16 A).
Only use the mains cable supplied. The unit
was calibrated with this cable and only in this
way can the resistance values measured be
exactly indicated.

4.0 General Information
The loop impedance (L-PE / loop impedance) is un-
derstood as the sum of all resistance values within
a current loop, consisting of the resistors of the cur-
rent source, the external conductor of the current
source up to the measurement point and the return
line (PE conductor) until the other current source
pole. The measurement determines the loop impe-
dance between external conductor and the PE con-
ductor. The Loop impedance value is measured by
short-term mains loading.
Additionally, the instrument TELARIS Loop allows
the user to test the mains internal resistance mea-
surement (L-N). This measurement is not required
by DIN VDE [German Standard], however it is con-
sidered as important and valuable support in prac-
tical applications e.g. for evaluating an installation
as well as for trouble shooting.
Simultaneously to measurement, the instrument
TELARIS LOOP determines (by calculation) the
short-circuit current. The short-circuit current must
be known to guarantee that an excess current re-
lease having been switched in series can trigger at
an appropriate current level and thus at sufficient
speed in the event of short-circuit.
Terms:
Loop Impedance (ZL):
Sum of impedance values within a current loop (bet-
ween the L and PE conductor).
Internal Resistance (RI):
Sum of resistance values within a current loop (bet-
ween the L and N conductor).
RL: Phase resistance
RPE: Protective conductor resistance
RN: Neutral conductor
RE: Earth-Resistance
Short-Circuit Current (IPSC):
Occurring current flow in the event of short circuit.
Specified Threshold Value of Contact Voltage (UL):
Peak value of contact voltage (Limit), which may be
maintained without time limit under specific envi-
ronmental influence and corresponding to an rms
value of 25V / 50V AC

6.0 Carrying out Measurements
Prior to any measurement, test the instrument
for perfect functioning by using a functional
EUT. This could be a correctly wired socket of
which perfect functioning is known.
To obtain precise measurement results, switch
off all loads or disconnect them from the mains.
An exact measurement may only be carried out
using the supplied test lead / mains lead. The in-
strument has been calibrated with this cable. If
other cables are employed, the measurement
accuracy can no longer be guaranteed.
If several measurements are carried out during
a short period the temperature monitor is trig-
gered. After a short cooling-down period, the
measurements may be resumed.
For resistance measurements in compliance
with 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3, the ground conductor
must not be live in order to comply with the
respective specifications.
