X.2 Safety Warnings

The following safety warnings and precautions must be read and understood before the instrument is used. They must be observed

during use.

■For safety, only connect the PAT to a supply that is properly earthed. If in doubt, the supply should be checked by a

qualiﬁed electrician.

■Do not use the instrument if there are any signs of damage.

■All test leads, probes and clips must be in good order, clean and with no broken or cracked insulation.

■Probes and clips should be held behind the ﬁnger guard.

■Test leads not used during a measurement should be disconnected from the appliance tester.

■For dual voltage testers, both sockets can be live simultaneously.

■Only connect one asset to the PAT during testing.

■Tests should be carried out in the order recommended below. An appliance that fails a test should be repaired before

further testing is carried out.

Recommended sequence:

1. Earth bond/ continuity of the protective earth conductor (Class I devices)

2. Insulation test (or earth leakage)

In addition further tests can be performed, but ONLY AFTER 1 & 2 above

3. Operation test

4. Leakage test

■Only perform an operational test after the earth bond and insulation tests have been completed, as this test operates at

mains voltage.

■During testing, ensure no hazard will exist as a result of normal running or under fault conditions.

■During testing the unit under test (asset) should not be touched, other than using the appropriate accessories, as faulty

appliances can present a shock hazard.

■Do not touch the exposed parts of test leads during tests as hazardous voltages may be present due to potentially faulty

appliance.

■Do not touch the IEC extension lead socket pins especially during a test, as hazardous voltages may be present due to a

potentially faulty appliance

www.megger.comPAT400 Series

■Assets should not be routinely ﬂash tested. Where ﬂash testing is required, refer to further guidance on Flash testing,

section A7

■Replacement fuses must be of the correct rating and type. Refer to section 1.8

■The USB connection marked thus should only be used by approved service personnel; nothing should be connected

to the USB port during testing.

■Only use a NiMH rechargeable 8.4 V PP3 battery, do not use a non rechargeable type as this could become dangerous if

charged by the instrument.

■Serviceable fuses should only be replaced with those that are suitably rated

■In case of an emergency use an easily accessible power point

■Only use Megger approved accessories with this product

1.7 Text ﬁelds (free form box) and Drop down boxes

When entering basic ASSET data, two types of text ﬁelds exist:

1) Free form boxes:

Text can be entered from a keyboard or barcode scanner.

In some instances a “free form” box can become a “drop down” box, such as the asset ID ﬁeld. In this case it will appear with the drop

down icon as below:

Free form box.

Text or numbers can be entered as

required.

Drop down box.

Press OK to select from the available list.

Alternatively, enter the ﬁrst letter or number of

the contents you require, and the search engine

will jump to that entry.

E.g. Enter “S” in the TEST GROUP box and the

cursor will jump to SC1.

If no contents start with that letter or number,

nothing will happen.

2) Drop down boxes:

Drop down boxes already contain a list of items. To access the list, navigate to the drop down box using the UP/DOWN arrows then press

the OK button.
