WARNING .
The measurement category of a combination probe and clip is the lower
of the two.
Definitions:
Measurement Category 0 (CAT 0) : circuits that are not directly connected to m ains. Examples are automobiles
or other battery operated circuits or devices.
Measurement Category II (CAT II) : applicable to circuits connected directly to s ocket outlets of the low-voltage mains. Examples are consumer appliances, power tools, or the consumer side of socket outlets.
Typical short circuit currents: <10 kA
Measurement Category III (CAT III) : applicable to circuits connected to the dist ribution part of a building’s
low-voltage mains. Examples are power distribution boards, solar cell power assemblies, circuit boxes, circuit
breakers, switches and industrial equipment.
Typical short circuit currents: >10 kA
Measurement Category IV (CAT IV) : applicable to circuits connected at the source of the building’s low-voltage
mains. Examples are measurements on devices installed before the main fuse or circuit breaker in a building.
Typical short circuit currents: >50 kA
Pollution Degree 2 refers to an operation environment whe re normally only dry non-conductive pollution
occurs. Temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be expected.
