Multi-Contact Produces Electrical Safety Guide
Multi-Contact has produced a safety guide to electrical testing and measurement. The free 48-page booklet takes the user through the basic principles of safe working in the testing of electrical and electronic equipment, with particular reference to the latest international standards.
It offers hints to assist in the selection and use of the correct types of test leads and accessories and covers the latest updates to IEC/EN 61010-031, the main standard for the safe operation of electrical measuring accessories. An outline of the CAT I-IV measurement categories provides a simple reference to help the tester determine which category is applicable.
There is also a section on frequently asked questions, which provides answers on special aspects of measuring, such as Kelvin measurement, frequency dependence and the use of passive and active oscilloscope probes. The guide ends with a 20-page glossary of terms relating to electrical testing and measurement and to Multi-Contact's test accessories.
