Safety
Terms in this manual
WARNING
identifies conditions and actions that could result in serious injury or even death to the
user.
CAUTION
identifies conditions and actions that could cause damage or malfunction in the
instrument.
This manual contains information and warnings that must be followed for operating the instrument
safely and maintaining the instrument in a safe operating condition. If the instrument is used in a
manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the instrument may be
impaired. The meter is intended only for indoor use.
The meter protection rating, against the users, is double insulation per IEC/UL/EN61010-1 Ed. 3.0,
IEC/EN61010-2-030 Ed. 1.0, IEC/EN61010-2-033 Ed. 1.0, IEC/UL/EN61010-031 Ed. 1.1 and
CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 61010-1-12 Ed. 3.0 to Category II 1000V, CAT III 600V and CAT IV 300V AC
& DC.
Terminals (to COM) measurement category:
V / mA
A / A :Category II 1000V, CAT III 600V and CAT IV 300V AC & DC.
Per IEC61010-1 2nd Ed. (2001) Measurement Category
Measurement Category II (CAT II)
is for measurements performed on circuits directly connected
to the low voltage installation. Examples are measurements on household appliances, portable
tools and similar equipment.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture. To avoid
electrical shock hazard, observe the proper safety precautions when working with voltages above
60 VDC or 30 VAC rms. These voltage levels pose a potential shock hazard to the user. Do not
touch test lead tips or the circuit being tested while power is applied to the circuit being measured.
Keep your fingers behind the finger guards of the test leads during measurement. Inspect test
leads, connectors, and probes for damaged insulation or exposed metal before using the
instrument. If any defects are found, replace them immediately. Do not measure any current that
exceeds the current rating of the protection fuse. Do not attempt a current measurement to any
circuit where the open circuit voltage is above the protection fuse voltage rating. Suspected open
circuit voltage should be checked with voltage functions. Never attempt a voltage measurement
with the test lead inserted into the
A/mA or A input jack. Only replace the blown fuse with the
proper rating as specified in this manual.
