manual and automatic test modes. See the IEE publication “CODE OF PRACTICE
FOR IN SERVICE INSPECTION AND TESTING OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT” for
further information.
STEP 2
Display: INPUT TEST ITEM NUMBER, PRESS # OR USE WAND.
(Each appliance may be allocated an alpha numeric code of up to ten digits).
When the desired code is entered press # ONCE only to enter code into memory, (if
entered manually). The instrument will ask “Is this right? Y/N”. The user may then
re-check and respond accordingly.
STEP 3
Display: INPUT TEST CODE? Y/N
At this stage the operator is being asked to select either the test code or normal
operation. If normal operation is required then answer ‘N’ and proceed to step 4. The
test code can be entered via the keypad or a bar code reader. The test code has been
added to save time by avoiding the requirement for repeated input of information and
takes the form of a ten digit number, the PAT2000i codes are as follows
Digit Value and Test
1 Visual inspection
1 = This indicates that PAT2000 codes are to be used
2 = 230V Appliance including visual inspection
3 = 230V Power lead including inspection
4 = 230V Appliance, no visual inspection
5 = 230V Power lead, no visual inspection
6 = 110V Appliance including visual inspection
7 = 110V Power lead including visual inspection
8 = 110V Appliance, no visual inspection
9 = 110V Power lead, no visual inspection
2 Earth integrity test, current selection
0 = Class II no Earth Integrity test
1 = 0.1 A
