O Measurement Category
To ensure safe operation of measuring instruments, IEC 61010 establishes safety standards for
various electrical environments, categorized as O to CAT.IV, and called measurement categories.
Higher-numbered categories correspond to electrical environments with greater momentary
energy,
so a measuring instrument designed for CAT.III environments can endure greater momentary
energy
than one designed for CAT.II.
O : Circuits which are not directly connected to the mains power supply.
CAT.II : Electrical circuits of equipment connected to an AC electrical outlet by a power cord.
CAT.III : Primary electrical circuits of the equipment connected directly to the distribution panel,
and feeders from the distribution panel to outlets.
CAT.IV : The circuit from the service drop to the service entrance, and to the power meter and
primary overcurrent protection device (distribution panel).

1.4 Outline of max demand measurement concept
In some countries, large consumers of electricity will usually have a maximum demand contract with
the power company. Such contract varies from country to country. The following is an explanation of
a typical Japanese maximum demand contract.
● Maximum Demand contract
In such a contract the electricity tariff rates (i.e. for kWhr units) are based upon the consumer’s
maximum power demand. The maximum demand is the maximum of average powers recorded
over a 30min intervals.
This is measured by the maximum demand meter belonging to the power company. Let’s assume
that a power company has the following applicable rates.
$2 per KWhr unit for a recorded max demand 300KW during a year
$4 per KWhr unit for a recorded max demand 500KW during a year
$5 per KWhr unit for a recorded max demand 600KW during a year
Assuming that the consumer is on the 500kW/year rate (ie. $4), and the recorded max demand
during a particular day(say 15th January) is 600kW . Then the new applicable rate from 1st
February onwards will be the 600kW/year rate (ie. $5) for the next 365 days. If a year later, on
February 1st the recorded maximum demand is 300kW, then the new applicable rates will be
changed to 300kW/year rate (i.e. $2) for the subsequent 365 days. However if during this period,
the max demand goes up again, and say 600kW is recorded on 15th March, the applicable rates
change again to the 600kW/year rate (i.e.$5) for the subsequent 365 days.
● Benefits of maximum demand control
It is thus important for consumers with such contracts to monitor closely fluctuations in their power
demand to ensure that their max demand limits are not exceeded and thus incur higher tariffs.
Maximum Demand control is more effective in countries with higher electricity tariffs.
● Status of maximum demand contract
In the past, in Japan, only consumers whose electricity supply was rated at 600kW or more used to
enter into a demand contract. However, nowadays power companies install maximum demand
meters at all consumers whose supply is rated 70kW or more.
● Maximum Demand measurement limitations
N.B. The readings from power company maximum demand meter and from the 6300 will not match
completely due to an obvious time-lag difference in the start of the integration period (eg.30mins)
over which the max demand is taken.

KEW6305 operates with either an AC power supply or batteries.
Capable of performing measurements in the event of AC power interruption, power to the instrument
is automatically restored by the batteries installed in the instrument. Dry-cell batteries (alkaline) and
rechargeable batteries (Ni-MH) can be both used.
* Dry-cell batteries (alkaline) are supplied as accessories.
DANGER
● Never open the Battery Cover during a measurement.
● Brand and type of the batteries to be used should be harmonized.
● Never touch the Power supply connector although it is insulated while the instrument is operating with
batteries.
● Ensure that the Power cord, Voltage test leads and Clamp sensor are removed from the instrument,
and that the instrument is switched off when opening the Battery cover for battery replacement.
WARNING
CAUTION
● Never mix new and old batteries.
● Install batteries in correct polarity as marked inside the Battery compartment area.
Batteries are not in the instrument at the time of purchase. Please insert the supplied batteries before
starting to use the instrument. Battery power is consumed even if the instrument is being off. Remove all
the batteries if the instrument is to be stored and will not be in use for a long period.
When the instrument is powered by an AC power supply, it doesn’t operate with batteries.
If an AC supply is interrupted and the batteries have not been inserted,
and all data may lost.
