PRECAUTIONS FOR USE This device is protected against voltages up to 600V with respect to earth in measurement category IV. The protection provided by the device may be compromised if it is used other than as specified by the manufacturer and so endanger the user. - Page 4 SAFETY ADVICES ■ Depending on the internal impedance of the voltage detector there will be a different capability of indicating the presence or absence of operating voltage in case of the presence of interference voltage. ■ A voltage detector of relatively low internal impedance, com- pared to the reference value of 100 kΩ, will not indicate all interference voltages having an original voltage value above the ELV level.

- Page 8 The C.A 762 is a Voltage Detector with indicator lights. It complies with the requirements of standard IEC 61243-3. The main function of the C.A 762 is to test for the absence of any voltage. It detects hazardous voltages, meaning voltages exceeding the ELV (extra low voltage: 50 Vac or 120 Vdc).

Page 9: Use
This device is a detector. The indications it provides must not be used for measurement purposes. 3.1. SELF-TEST Before using the C.A 762, perform a self-test. This checks the integrity of the leads, the proper operation of the electronic circuit, and the battery voltage. - Page 10 Position beyond which your hands must not go. Place the test probes on the element to be tested and maintain a firm contact. There is no need to switch the C.A 762 on, because it starts up automatically.
- Page 11 If the voltage present is: ■ AC, the indicators light to indicate its value and the + (green) and - (orange) indicators light. 600V 690 AC CAT IV 750 DC Ω Ω Ω 300k Ω L1-L2-L3 L1-L3-L2 ■ DC, the indicators light to indicate its value and the + indi- cator (green) or the - indicator (orange) lights to indicate the polarity.
- Page 12 Ω Keep the button pressed. If no voltage is detected, the C.A 762 performs a continuity test. If the result is: ■ <100Ω Ω : the first 5 indicators of the bargraph blink one after another. The device emits a continuous audible signal.

- Page 14 Attention: Pairing the C.A 762 with the C.A 751 derates the combined product to measurement category II, 250V. Connect the C.A 751 to the terminals of the C.A 762, then refer to the operating instructions of the CA.751. Warning: When the C.A 762 is connected to the C.A 751, the continuity <60 and <300kΩ...

Page 15: Characteristics
The indicator corresponding to voltage V lights before the voltage reaches 85% V. If no indicator lights, the voltage present is < 12V. The C.A 762 must be used only on networks at standard- ized voltages. Operating cycle: 30s (maximum duration for which the device... - Page 16 For use indoors and outdoors. Pollution degree: 2. Altitude: <2000m. 4.4. ALIMENTATION The C.A 762 is powered by two 1.5V alkaline batteries (type AAA or LR3). Batteries mass: about 2 x 26 g The battery life is 7,000 10-second measurements.
- Page 17 The batteries can be replaced by rechargeable batteries, but the life between charges will be much shorter. 4.5.
