- After the R test has been passed, the measurement of the insulating resistance is carried
PE
out automatically.
- Depending on whether the value is higher or lower than the limiting value, a
indicated next to the R
- After the R test has been passed, the external conductor (L) and the neutral conductor
ISO
(N) are checked for line breaks and short-circuits. A passed test regarding line breaks and
short-circuits is indicated by a
- The "PASS" symbol confirms successful testing of the entire testing procedure.
- If the test regarding line breaks, short-circuits or inversion (L/N) has failed, one of the follow-
ing symbols will be displayed instead of the "Good" symbol:
- "OPEN" symbol:
confirms a line break of the external conductor (L) or neutral conductor (N)
- "Shor" symbol:
c onfirms a short-circuit between the external conductor (L) and the neutral conductor
(N)
- "CrOSS" symbol:
C onfirms that the external conductor (L) and the neutral conductor (N) have been in-
verted.
See figure 5a: Testing of device connecting cables with IEC connector
Note on measuring the protective conductor resistance:
- Alternatively, the measurement of the protective conductor resistance R
as permanent measurement (max. 3 minutes). For this purpose press the key 2 for approx.
> 5 sec. until the  symbol appears on the display. Check the connecting line of the test
object by bending it over the entire length in order to detect weak points or a break of the pro-
tective conductor. The BENNING ST 710 continuously records the current measured value
on the display and stores the maximum value in the memory. By pressing the key 4 again,
the measurement is carried out with reversed polarity. Press the key 4 again to indicate the
maximum value of R
section 8.2.3.1.
8.2.3.2 Testing of cable reels, multiple distributors and extension cables
- Connect the IEC power cord (IEC adapter cable) included in the scope of delivery to the IEC
connector 7 of the BENNING ST 710.
- Connect the line to be tested to the test socket 1 and to the shock-proof socket of the IEC
power cord.
- Press the key 4 to start the automatic testing procedure.
- The further testing procedure corresponds to the testing procedure described in section
8.2.3.1.
See figure 5b: Testing of lines, multiple distributors and cable reels
8.3 Voltage measurement on external shock-proof socket
- Connect the IEC power cord (IEC adapter cable) to the IEC connector 7 of the
BENNING ST 710.
- Connect the shock-proof plug to the shock-proof socket to be tested. With the mains voltage
being applied, the voltage measurement will start automatically.
- Depending on the external conductor position (right or left) of the shock-proof socket, the
voltage potentials between the connecting terminals L, N and PE are indicated.
