SAFETY INFORMATION
The voltage tester complies with:
IEC 61243-3:2014, EN 61243-3:2014, DIN VDE 0682-401:2015
For Use by Competent Persons
Anyone using this voltage tester should be knowledgeable
and trained about the risks involved with measuring
voltage, especially in an industrial setting, the importance
of taking safety precautions and of testing the voltage
tester before and after using it to ensure that it is in good
working condition.
Depending on the internal impedance of the voltage
tester 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 tester of relatively low internal impedance,
compared to the reference value of 100 kΩ, will not
indicate all interference voltages having an original
voltage value above the ELV level. When in contact with
the parts to be tested, the voltage tester may discharge
temporarily the interference voltage to a level below the
ELV, but it will be back to the original value when the
voltage tester is removed.
When the indication “voltage present” does not appear,
it is highly recommended installing earthing equipment
before work.
A voltage tester of relatively high internal impedance,
compared to the reference value of 100 kΩ, may not
permit to clearly indicate the absence of operating voltage
in case of presence of interference voltage.
When the indication “voltage present” appears on a part
that is expected to be disconnected of the installation,
it is highly recommended confirming by another means
(e.g. use of an adequate voltage tester, visual check of the
disconnecting point of the electric circuit, etc.) that there
is no operating voltage on the part to be tested and to
conclude that the voltage indicated by the voltage tester is
an interference voltage.
A voltage tester declaring two values of internal
impedance has passed a performance test of managing
interference voltages and is (within technical limits) able
to distinguish operating voltage from interference voltage
and has a means to directly or indirectly indicate which
type of voltage is present.
W Warning: Read Before Using
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury:
• The operating instructions contain information and
references required for safe operation and use of the
voltage tester. Before using the voltage tester, read
the operating instructions carefully and follow them
in all respects.
• Failure to follow the instructions or to comply with
warnings and references may result in perilous to the
user and damage to the voltage tester.
• If the voltage tester is used in a manner not specified
by the manufacturer, protection provided by the
voltage tester may be impaired.
• Comply with local and national safety requirements.
• Use proper protective equipment as required by local
or national authorities.
