display the excluded test as a selection.

Performing Mains Voltage Testing

The Mains Voltage test measures the voltage on the
mains input through three separate measurements. To
access the Mains Voltage test, press . The Mains
Voltage test menu is shown in Figure 8.

Press each function softkey to perform each of the three
measurements: Live to neutral, neutral to earth, and live
to earth.

Note

Mains Voltage test.

Performing a Ground Wire (Protective Earth)
Resistance Test

The Ground Wire (Protective-Earth) Resistance test
measures the impedance between the Analyzer’s test
receptacle’s PE terminal and the exposed conductive
parts of the DUT that are connected to the DUT’s
Protective Earth.
Prior to conducting any leakage tests with the Analyzer, it
is best to test the integrity of the ground connection
between the Analyzer’s test receptacle ground and the
DUT’s Protective earth ground or enclosure with this test.
To access the Ground Wire (Protective Earth)
