Technicians and repair engineers may use this instrument in order to check out the
efficiency of the system and its compliance with specific regulations.
• Connect the instrument between each cable to be tested and the ground.
• Pre-set configurations can be used. For example, use the up or down arrow keys to

settings (ref. chapter 4.5).
• Press START, wait until the measuring is over and make sure the value measured is
consistent with what you requested.
• If necessary, save the measurement you performed by pressing the SAVE key (ref.
chapter 4.7).
