  • Page 8: Note

    Safety instructions 1.1.3 Note Make sure that the operating voltage is correct! ® Prior to insulation and voltage tests, the ISOMETER must be disconnected from the power system for the duration of these tests. In order to check the proper connection of the device, it is recommended to carry out a functional test.
  • Page 9: Directions For Installation

    Safety instructions 1.3 Directions for installation Only one insulation monitoring device may be used in each intercon- nected IT system. When insulation or voltage tests are to be carried out, the device shall be isolated from the system for the test period. The terminals and KE have to be connected by a separate wire to the protective conductor (PE).

The da- tabase is designed as a ring memory, i.e. the eldest entry is overwritten. Data is writ- ten into a non-volatile memory and therefore is protected against voltage failure. To store the events with the actual date and time stamp, you need to set the real-time clock in the ISO ADVANCED menu first.
