4. Danger!
Do not touch the ends of test adapters and probe tips during high
voltage insulation measurement.
If the ends of test adapters/probe tips are disconnected or are connected to
an ohmic test object for measurement, then a current of up to 1 mA with a
voltage of 250 ... 1000 V would flow through your body if touched. The
electrical shock is noticeable, however the electrical current does not reach
fatal levels.
After high voltage insulation measurement, high voltage decreases on the
probe tips. It is displayed on the VAS 5051B, VAS 5052A and VAS 6150
(specified laptop) as soon as the high voltage is decreased. Make sure that
nobody comes in contact with the test adapters/probe tips as long as high
voltage is applied!
5. Danger!
Carry out the absence of voltage measurement always only with the
hybrid measurement adapter for voltage measurement VAS 6558A/1-1*
For other measurements use the hybrid measurement adapter for
leakage resistance measurement, VAS 6558A/1-2* or the hybrid
measurement adapter for air conditioning compressor,
VAS 6558A/1-3*. In any case observe the user guidance of the software!
6. Warning!
The test object must be de-energised during high voltage insulation
measurement.
For this reason, carry out a voltage measurement before every high voltage
insulation measurement! Make sure that the test object is de-energised
during high voltage insulation measurement!
*) Only for use with VW Tuareg, Audi Q5, Porsche Cayenne and Porsche
Panamera!
For VW Jetta use the VAS6558/9-X adaptors!
