Safety Warnings - AVO MEGGER BMM500 Serie Benutzeranleitung

• Safety Warnings and Precautions must be read and understood before the instrument is used. They
must be observed during use.
• The circuit under test must be de-energised and isolated before connections are made except for
voltage measurement.
• Circuit connections must not be touched during a test.
• After insulation tests, capacitive circuits must be allowed to discharge before disconnecting the test
leads.
• The Live Circuit Warning and Automatic Discharge are additional safety features and should not be
regarded as a substitute for normal safe working practice.
• Replacement fuses must be of the correct type and rating. Failure to fit the correctly rated fuse will result
in damage to the instrument in the event of an overload.
• Test leads, including crocodile clips, must be in good order, clean and have no broken or cracked
insulation.
• Ensure that hands remain behind guards of probes/clips when testing.
• U.K. Safety Authorities recommend the use of fused test leads when measuring voltage on high energy
systems.
THE INSTRUMENTS MUST ONLY BE USED BY SUITABLY TRAINED AND COMPETENT PERSONS
