  • Page 10 If the earth resistance measured is greater than the selected PASS limit for earth bond (0.1Ω/0.2Ω/0.3Ω), the meter will display “×Earth Cont”, which is a FAIL. If this occurs, re-check the connections between the pin of the plug to the bodywork of the appliance and that the crocodile clip is attached to clean earthed metalwork on the appliance (try attaching the clip to analternative piece of metalwork).
  • Page 11 2. Insulation Resistance Test Before the unit carries out the insulation test it will attempt to check that the connected appliance’s power switch is in the ON position. If it detects that the appliance switch is in the ON position it will automatically carry out the insulation test.

    To Start the Cord Test Press 1. Earth Bond Test The unit will carry out an earth bond test in the same manner as a Class 1 appliance. The Pass mark for this test is less than the setup value(0.1,0.2,0.3Ω). 2.
  • Page 17 Note: when testing Surge Protected Extension Leads this test may fail. This is normal and a result of circuitry within the surge protection device. 3. Polarity Test The polarity test is the final test to be carried out and will check that the cord or extension is wired correctly.

The insulation test voltage reduces from 500V to 250V to allow for the testing of surge protected appliances and leads.
  • Page 19 that the socket is wired correctly. Connect an IEC lead to the mains socket and plug this into the back of the meter as shown in Diagram 6. 1）If the Live and Neutral in the socket wiring are reversed or there is a fault with the protective earth connection this is indicated as “LN√, LE×, NE×, FAIL”.
