PEAKTECH PKT-P1090 [20/90] Safety precautions

1. Safety Precautions

This product complies with the requirements of the following

European Community Directives: 2014/30/EU (Electromagnetic

Compatibility) and 2014/35/EU (Low Voltage) as amended by

2014/32/EU (CE-Marking). Overvoltage category CAT III 690V /

CAT IV 600V; 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: Supplied from a cable under earth; fixed installed

switches, automatic cut-off or main plugs.

CAT IV: Units and installations, which are supplied over aerial

line, which are stand in a risk of persuade of a lightning,

i.e. main-switches on current input, over-voltage-

diverter, current use counter.

To ensure safe operation of the equipment and eliminate the

danger of serious injury due to short-circuits (arcing), the following

safety precautions must be observed.

* Do not use this instrument for high-energy industrial installation

measurement. This instrument is intended for use in installation

over-voltage category III.

* The meter is designed to withstand the stated max voltages. If it

is not possible to exclude without doubts that impulses,

transients, disturbance or for other reasons, these voltages are

exceeded a suitable prescale (10:1) must be used.

* Do not exceed the maximum permissible input ratings (danger

of serious injury and/or destruction of the equipment).

* Check test leads and probes for faulty insulation or bare wires

before connection to the equipment.

* To avoid electric shock, do not operate this product in wet or

damp conditions. Conduct measuring works only in dry clothing

and rubber shoes, i. e. on isolating mats.

* Never touch the tips of the test leads or probe.
