Test Leads And Probes - Voltcraft Vc331 Bedienungsanleitung

■
When taking measurements make sure no objects are trapped between the
clamp jaws (e.g., cables).
■
Do not exceed the maximum permissible measurement values.
■
Risk of fatal electric shock! The product must never be used if the housing or
battery compartment cover is open.
■
Risk of electric shock! Use caution when working with voltages above 30 V/AC
rms (42.4 V peak), 60 V/DC.
■
The rotary switch should be set to the correct range / function before each use.
■
Inspect the product for damage before each measurement. Never take meas-
urements if the insulation or product is damaged.
■
Use extreme caution when working around bare conductors or bus bars as
contact can result in electric shock.

6.8 Test leads and probes

■
The voltage between the connection points of the meter and the earth potential
must not exceed 300 V AC/DC in CAT III.
■
Probe assemblies to be used for MAINS measurements should meet EN
61010-031 standard, rated CAT III 300 V, 10 A or better.
■
Risk of electric shock! Use caution when working with voltages above 30 V/AC
rms (42.4 V peak), 60 V/DC.
■
Test leads must be disconnected before changing the range / function.
■
The cables have a wear indicator. If damaged, a second insulation layer in a
different colour becomes visible. Do not use if this occurs, replace immediately!
■
When taking measurements do not grip beyond the finger barrier or grip range
markings on the probes.
■
When taking CAT III measurements, probes
with cover caps (max. 4 mm free contact
length) must be used to avoid accidental
short circuits.
