4 Test Sequence
Testing for electrical safety always begins
with a visual inspection. The measurements
are then conducted in the order in which
they appear next to the selector switch on
the test instrument, from top to bottom.
For each type of measurement, the test
instrument evaluates the measured values
and indicates whether or not limit values in
accordance with DIN VDE 0701-0702 have
been adhered to by means of an LED array.
The number and type of required measure-
ments are determined according to the clas-
sification of the device under test:
Indication Meaning
Green
LED
The measured value is better than the
strictest limit value.
Red
LED
The measured value is worse than the most
lenient limit value.
Yellow
LED
The limit value is in-between the strictest
and the most lenient limit values. Whether
or not the DUT passes testing depends upon
the device’s classification.
Evaluation should be conducted by a
qualified electrician.
