2.4 Dangers when working with electric voltage

Although this device does not produce dangerous voltages, the electric circuits to which it is connec-
ted could present a danger in the form of an electric shock or the formation of electric arcs. Com-
missioning and operating the device are permitted only in compliance with the EN 50110 (EU/EFTA
countries) or the standards applicable in your country.
5 safety regulations
Comply with the following safety rules before working with and on electrical equipment:
» Disconnect the test object.
» Secure against re-connection.
» Verify absence of operating voltage.
» Earth and short all phases.
» Provide protection against adjacent live parts.
DANGER
High electrical voltage
Danger to life or risk of injury due to electric shock.
» Before commencing work, the operator must assess the risks for the specific working
conditions. Protective measures are based on the risk assessment and must be follo-
wed at the workplace.
» The TDR 500/TDR 510 without a CAT IV separation filter (optional) must only be used
on deenergised, currentless electric circuits. If the device is connected to a live cable, it
will be damaged and the operator endangered.
» Only touch the test spike and crocodile clips behind the guard rings.
Performing measurements on live low-voltage cables up to CAT IV/600 V (optional)
Measurements on live low-voltage cables require the BAUR separation filter. The separation filter
complies with measurement category CAT IV/600 V. This enables measurements without any interrup-
tion to the supply voltage by customers and the identification of illegal branching (electricity theft).
