2.2. INSTRUMENT OPERATION
The instrument can perform following tests (compatibly with the characteristics described
in the table above):
AUTO
Test which automatically performs the following test sequence: total
earth resistance through socket, tripping time of the differential switch,
insulation resistance between phase and earth.
LOW
Continuity test of earth conductors, protective conductors and equipotential
conductors with test current higher than 200mA and open circuit voltage
between 4V and 24V.
M
Insulation resistance measurement with a direct test voltage of 50V, 100V,
250V, 500V or 1000V.
RCD
Measurement of following parameters on A-type (
) and AC-type (
)
general and/or selective differential switches: tripping time, tripping current,
contact voltage (Ut), total earth resistance (RA).
LOOP
Measurement of line impedance and fault loop impedance with
calculation of the assumed fault current.
Ra 15mA
Measurement of total earth resistance with 15mA without causing the
differential protections’ tripping.
123
Indication of the phase sequence.
AUX
Measurement of the environmental parameters (temperature, humidity, air
speed, lighting and noise level) by means of optional probes.
LEAKAGE
Function for measuring leakage current in real time by means of an
(optional) HT96U clamp.
POWER
Real-time displaying the values of the electrical quantities in a single-
phase system and the harmonic analysis of voltage and current up to
the 49
th
harmonic with THD% calculation.
