1 Safety Precautions
The test adapter has been manufactured
and tested in accordance with the following
safety regulations:
IEC/EN 61010-1/VDE 0411-1,
IEC/EN 61577/VDE 0413-2,-4/
DIN EN 61557-16/VDE 0413-16
Safety of the operator, as well as that of the
test adapter and the charging cable, is only
assured when it’s used for its intended pur-
pose.
Read the operating instructions carefully and
completely before placing your test instrument
into service. Follow all instructions contained
therein. Make sure that the operating instructions
are available to all users of the instrument.
Read the operating instructions for the respective
test instrument as well, in particular the sections
concerning the R
PE
, R
ISO
and time-to-trip mea-
surements, as well as the tripping test.
Tests may only be performed by a qualified
electrician, or under the supervision and
direction of a qualified electrician. The user
must be instructed by a qualified electrician
concerning performance and evaluation of
the test (see also training seminars listed at
www.gossenmetrawatt.com).
