1 Safety Precautions

The test adapter has been manufactured
and tested in accordance with the following
safety regulations:

IEC/EN 61010-1/VDE 0411-1,
IEC/EN 61577/VDE 0413-2,-4/
DIN EN 61557-16/VDE 0413-16
Safety of the operator, as well as that of the
test adapter and the charging cable, is only
assured when it’s used for its intended pur­pose.

Read the operating instructions carefully and
completely before placing your test instrument
into service. Follow all instructions contained
therein. Make sure that the operating instructions
are available to all users of the instrument.
Read the operating instructions for the respective
test instrument as well, in particular the sections
concerning the R
surements, as well as the tripping test.

Tests may only be performed by a qualified
electrician, or under the supervision and
direction of a qualified electrician. The user
must be instructed by a qualified electrician
concerning performance and evaluation of
the test (see also training seminars listed at
www.gossenmetrawatt.com).

PROFITEST⏐EMOBILITY Safety Precautions

Observe the following safety precautions:

• The instrument may only be connected to

electrical systems with a maximum of 230/
400 V which comply with applicable safety
regulations (e.g. IEC 60346, VDE 0100)
and are protected with a fuse or circuit
breaker with a maximum rating of 16 A.

•The test adapter may only be used for test-

ing mode 2 and 3 charging cables.

• No power consuming devices may be con-

nected to any of the sockets.

• Measurements within electrical systems

are prohibited.

• Make certain that the measurement

cables are in flawless condition, e.g. no
damage to insulation, no cracks in
cables or plugs etc.

• When using a test probe with coil cord

(PROFITEST MXTRA):
Grip the tip of the test probe firmly, for
example during insertion into a jack
socket. Tensioning at the coil cord may
otherwise cause the test probe to snap
back resulting in possible injury.

Insulation resistance can only be
measured at voltage-free objects:

R

switch position.

ISO

• Do not touch the insulation measuring

instrument’s test probes during insula­tion resistance measurements!

• Please observe the manufacturer‘s

details on the devices under test!

Fuse Replacement

All fuses for neutral and phase conductors
are accessible from the outside (see section

9.3). The fuses may only be replaced when
the instrument is voltage-free, i.e. the instru­ment must be disconnected from mains
supply power and may not be connected to
a measuring circuit. The fuse type must
comply with the specifications in the techni­cal data or the labeling on the instrument
(see section 8).

Opening the Instrument / Repairs

The test adapter may only be opened by
authorized, trained personnel from GMC-I
Service GmbH in order to ensure flawless
operation and to assure that the guarantee is
not rendered null and void.

Even original replacement parts may only be
installed by authorized, trained personnel
from GMC-I Service GmbH.

If it can be ascertained that the test adapter
has been opened by unauthorized person­nel, no guarantee claims can be honored by
the manufacturer with regard to personal
safety, measuring accuracy, compliance
with applicable safety measures or any con­sequential damages.

The test adapter may not be used:

• If external damage is apparent, for exam­ple if parts which conduct dangerous
touch voltage are freely accessible, if its
LEDs are defective (voltage at the ICCB-
IN1 sockets would no longer be indicated
in this case)

• If the seal or sealing lacquer has been
removed as the result of repairs or
manipulation carried out by an unautho­rized/non-certified service provider

• With damaged connection and/or mea­surement cables, e.g. interrupted insula­tion or kinked cable

• If it no longer functions flawlessly

• After extraordinary stressing due to
transport

In such cases, the test adapter must be
removed from operation and secured
against unintentional use.
