    FITESTpro 3. MEASUREMENTS 3.1. Turning the instrument on and off, standby, auto power off Hold the START key pressed until the device turns on. The instrument is turned off after two short pressing/releasing the START button, while no voltage can be applied on the test tips.
  • Page 10 FITESTpro Note: If voltage applied on the test tips of the instrument with not blown fuse is in range about 25 V ÷ 190V, the instrument also displays the symbol of blown fuse. Before replacing the fuse, therefore, make sure that voltage in measured circuit in range 190 V ÷...
  • Page 11 FITESTpro • If battery is low (only red part of battery indicator is displayed), then you can’t start the measurement by the START key – after pressing it the low battery symbol is displayed for a while. Thereafter, the instrument goes into status before pressing the START key.

    FITESTpro 3.4.2. Trip-out time T Following table lists allowed trip-out times according to EN 61008 / EN 61009 and IEC 60364-4-41 standards: Note ½ I ∆ N ∆ N ∆ N ∆ N Standard – 300 ms 150 ms 40 ms max.
  • Page 16: Trip-Out Current I

    FITESTpro Note: For safety reason, contact voltage is automatically measured before trip- out time is measured. As the selective type of RCDs include integrator, it is necessary to wait some time before the integrator sets to default. This is why the measuring process inserts a pause 30 s for selective RCDs.
