Commissioning
General Information to carry out measurements
Measurements in dangerous proximity of electrical systems are only to
be carried out in compliance with the instructions of a responsible elec-
tronics technician, and never alone.
Test leads and test probes may only be touched at handle surfaces pro-
vided. Absolutely avoid the direct contact of the test probes. Prior to
switching to a new measurement range or a new type of measurement,
remove all connections from UUT.
Measurements have to be carried out by respecting the standards.

Voltage Measurement
To avoid electrical shock, the valid safety measures and VDE directives
strictly have to be met concerning excessive contact voltage when wor-
king with voltages exceeding 120V (60V) DC or 50V (25V)rms AC. The
values in brackets are valid for limited areas (such as e.g. medicine,
agriculture).
