3.3.4. CONNECTION PROCEDURE

 Switch the instrument on.

 Conﬁgure the device for the measurement to be made and the type of network concerned (see §4),

 Connect the leads and current sensors to the unit.

 Connect the neutral lead to the network neutral, when it is distributed,

 Connect the L1 phase lead to the network L1 phase and connect the corresponding current sensor.

 If applicable, repeat the procedure for phases L2 and L3.

Note: complying with this procedure reduces connection errors to a minimum and avoids wasting time.

Disconnection procedure:

 Proceed in the reverse of the order of connection, always ﬁnishing by disconnecting the neutral (when distributed).

 Disconnect the leads and switch the device off.

Any screen can be saved (screen snapshot) by pressing the key for 3 seconds (see §11).

You can press the help key at any time. The help screen will inform you about the functions and the symbols used for the

current display mode.

3.4.1. WAVEFORM CAPTURE (FOR THE C.A. 8333 ONLY)

With the device powered up and connected to the network, press .

You can display the Transients mode (see §5).

3.4.2. DISPLAY OF HARMONICS

With the device powered up and connected to the network, press .

You can display the phase-to-neutral voltage (see §6.1), the current (see §6.2), the apparent power (see §6.3) or the phase-to-

phase voltage (see §6.4).

3.4.3. WAVEFORM MEASUREMENTS

With the device powered up and connected to the network, press .

You can display the measurements of the true RMS value (see §7.1), the measurements of the total harmonic distortion (see §7.2),

the measurements of the peak factor (see §7.3), the extreme values in voltage and current (see §7.4), several values at once (see

§7.5), or the Fresnel diagram (see §7.6).

3.4.4. ALARM RECORDING (FOR THE C.A. 8333 ONLY)

With the device powered up and connected to the network, press .

You can conﬁgure the alarm mode (see §8.1), program an alarm campaign (see §8.2), look it up (see §8.4), or erase it (see §8.6).
