Multifunction Tester

Quick Start Guide

GSAFETY WARNINGS

■Safety Warnings and Precautions must be read and understood

before the instrument is used. They must be observed during use.

■The circuit under test must be switched off, de-energised and

isolated before test connections are made when carrying out insulation

and continuity tests.

■Continuity of protective conductors and earthed equipotential bonding

of new or modified installations must be verified before carrying out

an earth fault loop impedance test, or RCD test.

■Circuit connections and exposed metalwork of an installation or

equipment under test must not be touched.

■The live circuit warning and Automatic discharge are additional safety

features and should not be regarded as a substitute for normal safe

working practices.

■Do not move the rotary switch positions while a test is in progress.

■The LCD ‘neon’ voltage indicators cannot reveal a Neutral - Earth

reversal. They cannot be relied upon to identify circuit correctness and

are for guidance only.

■After insulation tests, capacitive circuits must be allowed to discharge

before disconnecting test leads.

■The instrument should not be used if any part of it is damaged.

■Test leads, probes and crocodile clips must be in good order, clean

and with no broken or cracked insulation.

■Ensure that hands remain behind guards of probes/clips when testing.

■U.K. Safety Authorities recommend the use of fused test leads when

measuring voltage on high energy systems.

■Replacement fuses must be of the correct type and rating. Failure to fit

the correctly rated fuse will result in damage to the instrument in the

event of an overload. NOTE

THE INSTRUMENT MUST ONLY BE USED BY SUITABLY TRAINED AND

COMPETENT PERSONS

Users of this equipment and/or their employers are reminded that Health

and Safety Legislation requires them to carry out valid risk assessments of

all electrical work so as to identify potential sources of electrical danger

and risk of electrical injury such as inadvertent short circuits.

Where the assessments show that the risk is significant then the use of

fused test leads constructed in accordance with the HSE guidance note

GS38 'Electrical Test Equipment for use by Electricians' should be used.

Symbols used on the instrument are:

FCaution: risk of electric shock

GCaution: refer to accompanying notes

tEquipment protected throughout by Double Insulation (Class II)
