3.4.2 Measurement Configuration 

Before connecting the ELMED ISOTEST

 holiday detector and the high-

voltage impulse voltmeter, ensure that the ELMED ISOTEST

 holiday de-

tector is switched off! 

 

Fig. 2: Measurement configuration 
 
Figure 2 shows the correct measurement configuration using an 
ELMED ISOTEST

 device. The device should be set up as follows: 

 
1.  Earth the impulse voltmeter by connecting the earthing cable (E) to one 

of the 6mm jack 

 on the front. 

Make a low-impedance connection to an earthing point on site 
(PE/earthing conductor) using the clamping jaw of the supplied earthing 
cable. 

2.  Earth the ISOTEST

®

 device by connecting the earthing jack of the 

ISOTEST

®

 device to the 6 mm jack 

 

of the impulse voltmeter. 

3.  Insert the adapter (A) as far as possible into the electrode clamping 

device of the test handle and tighten the plastic nut. 

4. For ISOTEST

®

 devices with adjustable test voltage, set the voltage to 

be measured. 

5.  Apply the adapter on the measuring surface 

 

of the impulse 

voltmeter. 

6.  Turn on the main switch of the impulse voltmeter and the ISOTEST

®

 

holiday detector. 

 Info: 

The battery charge condition is permanently displayed 
(battery level indicator) 

7.  Press the safety button on the test handle of the ISOTEST

®

 holiday 

detector.
