UT525/526 Operating Manual
Overview
UT525/UT526 is a digital multi-functional electric testing instrument adopting
new design and integrating large scale analog integrated circuit, digital circuit
and microprocessor chips, which can mainly test parameters of residual current
device (RCD), earth, insulation resistance, DCV and ACV; with features of full
functions, high accuracy, stable performance, easy and reliable operation, it
is available to test RCD, insulation and earth of electric equipments. UT525/
UT526 is the ideal selection for repairing, maintaining and testing RCD of all
electric equipments.
I. Safety Precautions
This instrument was designed, manufactured and tested according to
IEC61010 safety standard (Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment).
This Instructions describe the warnings and safety rules which ensure the safe
operation and safe state of the instrument, which the user must follow. Please
read following instructions before using.
Warning
● Please read and understood the Instructions before using.
● Please follow the requirements of the Instructions, keep the
Instructions well for further reference at any time.
● During testing, incorrect operation will cause accident and
instrument damage.
Sign on the instrument tell the user that some operations should be
made according to relative requirements of the Instructions to ensure safety
operation of the instrument.

Note
Danger
Danger
● Do not test circuit with AC440V/DC440V or above.
● Do not test in the place with inammable conditions.
● Do not operate the instrument if the surface of the instrument is wet or the
hand is wet.
● During testing, do not touch the conductive part of the testing pen.
● Do not open the battery cover during testing.
● During testing insulation and RCD, do not touch the circuit to be tested.
Warning
● When there is anything unusual to the instrument, such as the instrument
is damaged or the metal is exposed, please do not use it.
● Operate carefully under the voltage over 33Vrms, 46.7Vacrms or 70Vdc,
electric shock may be caused under such kind of voltage during operating.
● After completing high resistance testing, the charge storage of the circuit
to be tested must be released.
● Do not replace battery if the instrument is in place with humidity.
● Make sure the all testing wires are connected with the testing ports rmly.
● Before opening cover of the battery, please make sure the instrument is
turned off.
Note
● Before testing resistance, the circuit to be tested must be discharged
completely and separated from the power circuit absolutely.
● If the testing pen or adapter is damaged and needs to be replaced,
please replace with testing pen or adapter with the same model and
electric specications.
● When the battery sign ( ) shows that the battery is used up, please do
not use the instrument any more. If the instrument won’t be used for a long
time, please take out the battery and then keep the instrument well.
