OVERVIEW | INSTALLATION <strong>TEST</strong>ERS/ADAPTERS<br />

All new installations and alterations to electrical equipment or installations are subjected to safety checks and sometimes<br />

require an acceptance inspection. The purpose of these inspections is to avoid injury to persons and damage to property.<br />

Testing of electrical equipment is regulated in DIN VDE 0100, Part 610.<br />

In some cases a visual safety inspection of the electrical equipment is insufficient.<br />

In such cases a measurement protocol is used to check adherence to the legally accepted limit values.<br />

However, it is not just electrical equipment that must comply with the applicable standard; the test instruments themselves<br />

are also subject to the specifications of a standard – the IEC/EN 61010-1, DIN VDE 0411.<br />

Adherence to these regulations ensures the safety of all persons directly and indirectly involved with the safety check.<br />

In practical applications it is necessary to undertake numerous measurements on live components so that using a clearly<br />

designed and easy to operate measuring instrument from Testboy can prove to be best practise.<br />

Different measuring instruments area available on the market for different applications:<br />

for example phase-sequence indicators, insulation measuring instruments, earth resistance measuring instruments, cable<br />

tracers and so forth.<br />
