SAFETY WARNINGS Safety Warning must be observed during use. The circuit under test must be switched off, de-energised, isolated and checked to be safe before insulation test connections are made. Make sure the circuit is not re-energised whilst the instrument is connected. Circuit connections must not be touched during an insulation test.
CONTENTS Safety warnings Symbols used on the instrument are: Cleaning Introduction Caution: risk of electric shock Power lead and charging Caution: refer to accompanying notes Instrument controls and indicators Power On/Off button Equipment protected throughout by Double Test voltage L and M buttons Insulation (Class II) Test start/stop button Equipment complies with current EU directives.
INTRODUCTION POWER LEAD AND CHARGING The MIT510/2 is a compact microprocessor controlled high voltage d.c. If the power lead supplied is not suitable for your type of mains outlet, do insulation tester, powered by internal rechargeable battery or mains not use an adaptor. Always use a power lead fitted with the correct plug.
