1 GENErAL General 1.1 Description 1.2 Mains and power PAM410 and 420 are specifically designed for Mains adapter measurements on electrical power systems. The phase angle is calculated from the relationship between two Model Skynet Electronic SNP-A02C power signals, either two currents or two voltages, or any combination.
Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. refer all servicing, including the exchange of fuses, to Megger authorized personnel. If you need to return the instrument, please use either the original crate or one of equivalent strength This equipment contains lithium batteries.

7 CALIBrATION 7.2 Check procedure after 7.3 Timer calibration The timer functionality cannot be calibrated, only tested if within specifications. As the timer is using the same internal clock as the frequency measurement, Voltage it is suggested that the timer will show the correct Connect U1 to the voltage source time as long as the frequency measurement is within specifications.
