1. International Safety Symbols
Warning: This symbol indicates that the operator must refer to an explanation in the
user manual to avoid personal injury or damage to the meter.
Caution! Risk of electric shock
Reference. Please use utmost attention.
Comply with EMC.
1.1 Safety Information
Read the user manual carefully before attempting to operate or service the meter.
The respective accident prevention regulations established by the associations for
electrical systems and equipment must be strictly met at all times.
This WARNING symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury, or result damage to the product.
This symbol advises the user that the terminal(s) so marked must not be connected to
a circuit point at which the voltage with respect to earth ground exceeds (in this
case)300 VAC or VDC.
Prior to any operation, ensure that connecting leads used and electronic load are in
perfect condition.
If the operator’s safety cannot be guaranteed, the instrument must be removed from
service and protected against use.
The Cable Locator may only be used on systems complying with the nominal voltages
indicated in the technical data section.
Prior to usage ensure perfect instrument function: we recommend to exclusively
connect the transmitter from the phase towards the neutral conductor.
If the RCD trips when connecting the sender, a fault current is already active within
the installation.
If the instrument is subjected to an extremely high electro-magnetic field, its
functioning ability may be impaired.
