ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY

European Council Directive 89/336/EEC requires electronic equipment
not to generate electromagnetic disturbances exceeding defined levels
and have adequate immunity levels for normal operation. Specific
standards applicable to this meter are stated below.
As there are electrical products in use pre-dating this Directive, they may
emit excess electromagnetic radiation levels and, occasionally, it may be
appropriate to check the meter before use by:
Use the normal start up sequence in the location where the meter will be
used.
Switch on all localized electrical equipment capable of causing
interference.
Check all readings are as expected. A level of disturbance is acceptable.
If not acceptable, adjust the meter's position to minimize interference or
switch off, if possible, the offending equipment during your test.
At the time of writing this manual (Dec 2008) we are not aware of any
field based situation where such interference has occurred and this
advice is only given to satisfy the requirements of the Directive.
Please Note: Batteries used in this meter should be disposed of in
accordance with current legislation and local guidelines.
This product has been tested for
compliance with the following generic
standards:
EN 61000-6-3 : 2001
EN 61000-6-1 : 2001
and is certified to be compliant
Specification EC/EMC/KI/K500S
details the specific test configuration,
performance and conditions of use.
