www.victorruoshui.co.kr III. Safety Considerations The design of meter is in accordance with IEC1010 clause (the safety standard issued International Electrotechnical Commission). Prior to the operation of the instrument, please first read the safety considerations. 1. When DC voltage above 30V, AC voltage above 25V, current above 10mA, AC power line with inductive load or power line during electric fluctuation is measured,...
