Measurement Category
DS1000Z-E series digital oscilloscopes can make measurements in Measurement Category I.
WARNING
This oscilloscope can only be used for measurements within its specified measurement categories.
Measurement Category Definitions
Measurement category I is for measurements performed on circuits not directly connected to MAINS. Examples are measurements on circuits not derived from MAINS, and specially protected (internal) MAINS derived circuits. In the latter case, transient stresses are variable. For that reason, the transient withstand capability of the equipment is made known to the user.
Measurement category II is for measurements performed on circuits directly connected to low voltage installations. Examples are measurements on household appliances, portable tools and similar equipment.
Measurement category III is for measurements performed in building installations. Examples are measurements on distribution boards, circuit-breakers, wiring (including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches and socket-outlets) in fixed installations, equipment for industrial use and some other equipment. For example, stationary motors with permanent connection to a fixed installation.
Measurement category IV is for measurements performed at the source of a low-voltage installation. Examples are electricity meters and measurements on primary overcurrent protection devices and ripple control units.
