Safety Precautions - PeakTech 4250 Bedienungsanleitung

1. Safety Precautions

These products complies with the requirements of the following
European Community Directives: 2004/108/EC (Electromagnetic
Compatibility) and 2006/95/EC (Low Voltage) as amended by
2004/22/EC (CE-Marking); Overvoltage category II 300 V (P 4250);
overvoltage category II 1000 V (P 4300); pollution degree 2.
CAT I: For signal level, telecommunication, electronic with small
transient over voltage
CAT II: For local level, appliances, main wall outlets, portable
equipment
CAT III: Distribution level, fixed installation, with smaller transient
overvoltage than CAT IV.
CAT IV: Units and installations, which are supplied overhead lines,
which are stand in a risk of persuade of a lightning, i.e.
main-switches on current input, overvoltage-diverter,
current use counter.
To ensure safe operation of the equipments and eliminate the
danger of serious injury due to short-circuits (arcing), the following
safety precautions must be observed.
Damages resulting from failure to observe these safety precautions
are exempt from any legal claims whatever.
* Do not clamp around conductors with voltages equal or
exceeding 1000 V DC or 750 V ACrms (P 4300) 300 V DC or
240 V ACrms (P 4250)
* To avoid physical injury, measurements on bare conductors or
conductors with cracked or frayed insulator are forbidden
* Do not use these instruments for high-energy industrial
installation measurement. These instruments are intended for
use in installation overvoltage category II according to IEC 664.
* Check test leads and probes for faulty insulation or bare wires
before connection to the equipments.
