Page 4: Observe Prior To Use
• The measuring instrument may only be used in 16 A fused electrical circuits up to a nominal voltage of 600 V (testo 760-1 and -2) / 1000 V (testo 760-3). The nominal cross-section of the connection cable must be taken into account in order to ensure safe connection (e.g. via crocodile clips). -
Page 5: Intended Use
The instrument may only be used under the conditions and for the purpose for which it was designed: • testo 760-1 conforms to measurement category CAT III with a rated voltage of 600 V to earth. Measurement category CAT III is for use in electrical circuits in building installation, e.g. -
