Earthing of the instrument
Prior to putting into operation, the Instrument has to be
earthed. For this purpose, the earthing terminal (13) is to be
connected to a reliable protective earth by means of the
earthing lead supplied. The protective earthing provided
through the earthing contact of the mains supply lead is not
sufficient.

Connection to the faulty cable
The plug of the high voltage lead is connected to the high
voltage socket (15) and is secured by means of the fixing
screw. Now a micro contact inside the instrument closes and
renders the instrument ready for the connection of a mains
supply.
