1. SAFETY INFORMATION

This Instruction Manual provides information and warnings essential for operating

this meter in a safe manner and for maintaining it in safe operating condition. Before

using this meter, be sure to carefully read the following safety information.

DANGER

•During high voltage measurement, incorrect measurement procedures could

result in injury or death, as well as damage to the meter. Please read this

manual carefully and be sure that you understand its contents before using the

meter.

DANGER

•Do not use the meter or test leads if they look damaged.

•Use extreme caution when working around bare conductors or bus bars,

Accidental contact with the conductor could result in electric shock.

•To avoid damages to the meter, do not exceed the maximum limits of the input

values shown in the specifications.

•Use the meter only as specified in this manual, otherwise, the protection

provided by the meter may be impaired.

SAFETY SYMBOLS

•Caution refer to this manual before using the meter.

•

This symbol is affixed to the meter where the operator should consult

corresponding topics before using relevant functions of the meter.

•

This mark indicates explanation, which is particularly important that the

user should read before using the meter.

Dangerous voltages.

Meter is protected throughout by double insulation or reinforced insulation.

When servicing, use only specified replacement parts.

Comply with IEC61010-1, 2nd edition

DANGER: Indicates that incorrect operation presents extreme danger of

accident resulting in death or serious injury to the user.

WARNING: Indicates that incorrect operation presents significant danger of

accident resulting in death or serious injury to the user.

CAUTION: Indicates that incorrect operation presents possibility of injury to

the user or damage to the meter.

NOTE: Denotes items of advice related to performance of the meter or to its

correct operation.

NOTES ON USE

In order to ensure safe operation and to obtain maximum performance from the

meter, observe the caution listed below.

Installation

CAUTION

•The meter is designed for indoor use and can be safely used at temperatures

ranging from 0℃to 40℃.

•Do not store or use the meter where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, high

temperature, high humidity, or condensation, if exposed to such conditions, the

meter may be damaged, the insulation may deteriorate, and the meter may no

longer satisfy its specifications.

•The meter does not construct to be waterproof or dustproof, so do not use it in

a very dusty environment or in one where will get wet.

•Do not use the unit where it may be exposed to corrosive or explosive gas. The

meter may be damaged, or may occur explosion.

Before use

WARNING

•To prevent electric shock, do not allow the meter to become wet and do not use

the unit when your hands are wet.

•When working with live circuits, take all suitable precautions against

accidents, including the use of electrical safety gear such as rubber gloves,

rubber boots, and safety helmets.

Connecting meter

WARNING

•To prevent electric shock, turn the power off before connecting the test leads

and then take measurements.

•In order to prevent electrical shock and short – circuit accidents, shut off the

power to the line to be measured before connecting the line to be measured to

the voltage input terminals.

CAUTION

•The measurement input and synchronizing input are not isolated from each

other. Connecting either one means that the other is exposed it is live, and

there is a danger of electric shock. To avoid electrical shock, connect both

terminals.

WARNING

To avoid electrical shock and / or meter damage, use caution when connecting

test leads to live components. The jaws of alligator clips can create a short

circuit between closely spaced live parts. Avoid making connections to feeder

conductors or bus bars at elevated potentials. Whenever, please make

connections to the output side of a circuit breaker as possible as you can, which

can provide better short circuit protection.

•Follow all legal requirements.

•Follow all instructions in the manuals.

•Obey posted instructions.

•Never assume that a circuit is de-energized, check it first.

•Always set up the measurement first, then connect the test leads to the circuit.

•Remove all test leads that are not in use.

•Make connections to the meter first, before connecting leads to a live circuit.

•Connect the ground lead first, then the voltage leads and the current probe,

Disconnect in reverse order.

•Route test leads carefully.

2. INTRODUCTION FEATURE

The symptoms of poor power quality include intermittent lock-ups and resets,

corrupted data, premature equipment failure, over-heating of components for no

apparent cause, etc. The ultimate cost is in downtime, decreased productivity and

frustrated personnel.

Use power analyzer to power quality trouble shooting can help you keep your

power system up and running, troubleshoot problems quickly, improve power

efficient, manage energy costs, zero in on harmonics, optimize power system

performance, improve power quality and analyze system data to design optimal

upgrades.
