1.1 International Electrical Symbols

This symbol signifies that the instrument is protected by double or reinforced insulation.

This symbol on the instrument indicates a WARNING and that the operator must refer to the user manual for instructions before operating the instrument. In this manual, the symbol preceding instructions indicates that if the instructions are not followed, bodily injury, installation/sample and product damage may result.

Risk of electric shock. The voltage at the parts marked with this symbol may be dangerous.

In conformity with WEEE 2002/96/EC


1.2 Definition of Measurement CategoriesCAT I: For measurements on circuits not directly connected to the AC supply

wall outlet such as protected secondaries, signal level, and limited energy circuits.

CAT II: For measurements performed on circuits directly connected to the electrical distribution system. Examples are measurements on household appliances or portable tools.

CAT III: For measurements performed in the building installation at the distribution level such as on hardwired equipment in fixed installation and circuit breakers.

1.5.1 DataView Software (for Model 5060)

Dataview software makes it possible to: Retrieve data from memory and plot graphs of the changes in insulation

as a function of the time over which the test voltage is applied, R(t). Print out protocols of personalized tests, depending on the users needs.

Create text files for use on spreadsheets.

Set up and control the instrument entirely by the RS-232.

NOTE: The input current may be a depolarization current resulting from an earlier insulation measurement. It is recommended to start a new DAR and PI measure-ment after the current has dropped to a negligible value (on the order of 100pA) to avoid variations on these measurements.
