Safety Requirement
Measurement Category Definitions
• Measurement category I is for measurements performed on circuits not directly
connected to MAINS. Examples are measurements on circuits not derived from
MAINS, and specially protected (internal) MAINS derived circuits. In the latter
case, transient stresses are variable. Thus, you must know the transient withstand
capability of the equipment.
• Measurement category II is for measurements performed on circuits directly
connected to low voltage installation. Examples are measurements on household
appliances, portable tools and similar equipment.
• Measurement category III is for measurements performed in the building
installation. Examples are measurements on distribution boards, circuit-breakers,
wiring (including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches and socket-outlets) in
the fixed installation, and equipment for industrial use and some other
equipment. For example, stationary motors with permanent connection to a
fixed installation.
• Measurement category IV is for measurements performed at the source of a
low-voltage installation. Examples are electricity meters and measurements on
primary overcurrent protection devices and ripple control units.

Ventilation Requirement

This instrument uses a fan to force cooling. Please make sure that the air inlet and
outlet areas are free from obstructions and have free air. When using the instrument
in a bench-top or rack setting, provide at least 10 cm clearance beside, above and
behind the instrument for adequate ventilation.
CAUTION
Inadequate ventilation may cause an increase of temperature in the instrument, which
would cause damage to the instrument. So please keep the instrument well ventilated and
inspect the air outlet and the fan regularly.
