  • Page 6 1.3. FUNCTIONS The C.A 760N is a Voltage Detector with indicator lights. It complies with the requirements of standard IEC 61243-3. The main function of the C.A 760N is to test for the absence of any voltage. It detects hazardous voltages, meaning voltages exceeding the ELV (extra low voltage: 50 V or 120 V even if its batteries are low or missing.

    2. USE This device is a detector. The indications it provides must not be used for measurement purposes. 2.1. SELF-TEST Before using the C.A 760N, perform a self-test. This checks the integrity of the leads, the proper operation of the elec- tronic circuit, and the battery voltage.
  • Page 8 „ If every third indicator is off, there is a problem with the leads. Check that they are correctly connected and that they are actually touching, then press the AUTO TEST button again. If the problem persists, the lead and/or the test probe must be replaced.
  • Page 9 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 „ DC, the indicators light to indicate its value and the + in- dicator (green) or the - indicator (orange) lights to indicate the polarity.
  • Page 10 2.3. CONTINUITy LEVEL INDICATION Connect the red test probe to the + terminal and the black lead to the COM terminal. Keep your hands behind the guards of the device and of the test probe. Place the test probes on the element to be tested and main- tain a firm contact.
  • Page 11 If the test probe is in fact on the phase, the Ph (phase) indica- tor flashes and the device beeps. 600V 690 AC CAT IV 750 DC Ω Ω Ω 300k Ω Warning: if the Ph indicator is not flashing, that does not mean that there is no hazardous voltage on the outlet.
  • Page 12 If there is a problem, in other words, if the device fails to detect a change of phase within 10 seconds or if the phases are not balanced, it reports an error by emitting two low- pitched beeps. Otherwise, the device indicates the phase order by lighting: „...
