PrimeTest 300

Operating Instructions

- 74 -

The Class I icon is illuminated to indicate that the
insulation

resistance

is

measured

between

the

live/neutral conductors and the protective earth.

Note: The probe icon is turned off as the test probe

is not required for Class I insulation resistance
measurements.

The

display

shows

that

the

measured

value

is

>200M

Ω. Τhis is greater than the Limit of 1.0 Mohm

hence the tick mark is shown to indicate a Pass result.

Next in this sequence is the Protective Conductor
Current measurement. This is now the preferred term for
what used to be referred to as Earth Leakage.

Note: Mains power is applied to the EUT for this test

and hence the mains must be connected to the
PrimeTest 300.

The PrimeTest 300 will check for the presence of correct
supply before starting a powered test. If the supply is not
present the message shown below is displayed.

Connect a mains supply to the PrimeTest 300 and press
OK (F4) to proceed.

Note: The appliance will be powered during this test.

Make sure it is safe to proceed, particularly
when testing an appliance with moving or
rotating parts, before pressing the START key.
