DANGER ! ● This instrument can be connected only to the commercial power of 230V+10%-10%, 50/60Hz. ● For safety reasons, only use the Test Leads designed to be used with this instrument and recommended by KYORITSU. ● Mains power supply to which the instrument is connected must be protected with a fuse or a breaker of 16A (max.
2. Procedure of removing cover Model 6200 and 6202 have a dedicated cover to protect against an impact from the outside and prevent the operation part, the LCD, and the connector socket from becoming dirty. The cover can be detached and put on the back side of the main body during measurement.
3. Product summary and explanation 3.1 Product summary Model 6200, 6202 perform tests and measurements in accordance with DIN VDE 0701:2000 (Repair, modification and testing of electrical instruments) and DIN VDE 0702:1995 (Repeat tests for electrical instruments). These standards require to measure protective conductor resistance, insulation resistance and...

(3)Terminal block / Terminal for mains cord The supplied mains cord can be connected to this terminal. (4)Terminal block / L/N terminal This terminal wired in parallel to two short-circuited Phase terminals at the test socket (1). The DUT Phase conductors can be connected to this L/N terminal and measured, if the DUT is not equipped with a mains plug.
(11)Safety lock button (Only for M-6202) To select the range for current consumption measurement, turn the range switch while this button is being pressed. It is to prevent any hazards will not occur on user by DUT operates suddenly. (12)Protective fuse Protected by fuse of 600V/500mA ceramic fuse (F type Φ6.35mm x 32mm) against external over voltage.

5.2-2 Check the mains power supply voltage There is no power switch and the instrument is immediately ready for use. Mains power supply voltage is displayed on the LCD. Please check the value, and when it is from 207V to 253V, the instrument can perform correct measurements.
5.2-4 NULL setting (Protective conductor resistance range) According to below figure, set the range switch to the range for protective conductor resistance (either 20Ω+ or 20Ω- is OK). Press NULL button after short-circuited PE/2mA and RPE -Test lead terminals with RPE-Test Lead. Make sure that the " "...
6. Connection for the instrument and the device under test When the DUT is equipped with a mains plug, use test socket, RPE -Test lead and PE/2mA terminal for a measurement of protective conductor resistance, insulation resistance and equivalent leakage current of DUT. But if not, connect the DUT to L/N and PE/2mA terminal which are connected inparallel to the test socket with the optional cord.
7. Measuring method 7.1 Measuring protective conductor resistance (RPE) The measurement of protective conductor resistance is of course not possible for devices which are not equipped with a protective conductor (e.g. Safety Class ll and III devices).The objective of this test is to ensure the connection between the earth or the protective conductor of the commercial power earth pin and the metal casing and accessible conductive parts of the DUT is satisfactory and of a low enough resistance value to satisfy safety standards.
7.2 Measuring insulation resistance (RINS) This measurement may only be performed if the DUT has successfully completed protective conductor resistance testing (Safety class l device). The objective of this test is to ensure that the insulation between Phase or Neutral conductor of the mains power supply and the metal casing and accessible conductive parts of the DUT is satisfactory.
7.3 Measuring equivalent leakage current (IEL) The objective of this test is to ensure that leakage current between Phase or Neutral and the earth connector of the mains power supply is satisfactory and low enough to satisfy the relevant standard. (1) Connection is the same as shown for the measurement of insulation resistance.
● A defect in the DUT may cause tripping of the residual current circuit breaker during testing, which would also result in interruption of supply power. Data must be backed up before making measurements at data processing equipment. Connection for contact current measurement Mains cord of M-6200 To exposed conductive parts Same outlet Switch the DUT on. Fig.17 To mains outlet...
7.5 Measuring current consumption (ILINE) (Only for M-6202) This instrument can measure current consumption of the DUT. The safety tests described in clause 7.4 and earlier must not be performed and passed. (1) Connect the DUT to the test socket on the instrument. (2) Set the range switch to ILINE16A range with pressing the safety lock button on the instrument.
8. Fuse replacement When the protective fuse blows during use, please replace with new one according to below procedure. (1) Use a flat head screwdriver and turn it about 45゜ to left and remove the fuse cap and fuse. (2) Remove the fuse from the fuse cap and replace it with new one.
9. Services If this instrument should fail to operate correctly, return it to your distributor. Please remember to give all the information possible concerning the nature of the fault, as this will mean that the instrument will be serviced and returned to you more quickly.
