To set your own limit, with this user adjustable limit flashing press
both cursor keys together. The limit as a whole will stop flashing with
the most significant digit flashing. Use the cursor buttons to set a
value for the flashing digit. Press the SELECT button to enable the
next digit in turn to flash. Use the cursor buttons to set a value for this
flashing digit. Then press the SELECT button to move to the next
digit. Repeat these actions until all digits are set to your chosen
value. Press the STORE RESULT button to set the limit.
Press the SELECT button to change to another setting or press the
START/STOP button to perform the test if the other settings are
acceptable.
Test Sequence
The first test is an Earth Continuity test at 200mA. This is indicated by
the secondary display showing PE
Ω.
The test is divided into two 2s tests. During the first period a test
current of +200mA will be applied. During the second period a test
current of –200mA will be applied.
The second test is an Insulation test at 500v d.c. This is indicated by
the secondary display showing LnPE M
Ω.
The third test checks the lead wiring is correct. This test checks for
open circuit or shorted wires as well as crossed polarity between
Phase and Neutral. The result of this test is displayed as a Pass or
Fail.
By pressing the CHANGE DISPLAY button at the end of the test and
using the cursor buttons it is possible to cycle through the test results
for the Lead Test.
Testing 110v Appliances
The 110v adaptor lead is used to connect 110v appliances to the
tester’s outlet socket. Only Earth Continuity, Insulation and Substitute
Leakage measurements can be made.
The adaptor lead is wired to prevent power tests being performed,
since this would supply full mains voltage (230v) to the EUT.
