Safety instructions 2.1 General safety instructions Part of the device documentation in addition to this manual is the enclosed "Safety instructions for Bender products". 2.2 Work activities on electrical installations Only skilled persons are permitted to carry out the work necessary to install, commission and run a de- vice or system.
  • Page 13: Intended Use

    Safety instructions 2.3 Intended use The ISOMETER® monitors the insulation resistance R (R mode) or the insula- tion impedance Z (Z mode) of unearthed AC/DC main circuits (IT systems) with nominal system voltages of 3(N)AC, AC, AC/DC or DC 0 … 440 V. DC com- ponents existing in 3(N)AC, AC/DC systems do not influence the operating characteristics, when a minimum load current of DC 10 mA flows.
