The following test entails the circulation of a maximum current of approx. 6A
between phase and neutral. This could cause the tripping of possible
magnetothermal protections with lower tripping currents. In this case, carry
out the measurement upstreams of the protections.
When message "MEASURING..." is displayed, this indicates that the
instrument is carrying out the test. Never disconnect the instrument's leads
during this phase.
At the end of the test,
the instrument gives out
a double sound to
indicate that test has
been
performed
and
following
appears on the display.
