    1. This instrument must only be used by a competent and trained person and operated in strict accordance with the instructions. KYORITSU will not accept liability for any damage or injury caused by misuse or non- compliance with the instructions or with the safety procedures.
  • Page 4 ● For safety reasons only use accessories (test leads, probes, cases, etc)designed to be used with this instrument and recommended by KYORITSU. The use of other accessories is prohibited as they are unlikely to have the correct safety features. WARNING ●...
  • Page 5 CAUTION ● During testing it is possible that there may be a momentary degradation of the reading due to the presence of excessive transients or discharges on the electrical system under test. Should this be observed, the test must be repeated to obtain a correct reading.

Every circuit must be tested to ensure that the earth fault loop impedance value does not exceed that specified or appropriate for the over- current protective device installed in the circuit.
  • Page 16 Fig.10 In accordance with the international standard IEC 60364 for a TT system the following condition shall be fulfilled for each circuit. RA must be < _ 50/la where; RA is the sum of the resistances of the local earth system R and the protective conductor connecting it to the exposed conductor part.

Fig.11 For this example the maximum value is 1667Ω,the loop tester reads 12.74 Ωand consequently the condition RA is < _ 50/la is met. It is fundamental for this example to test also the RCD to ensure that operation takes place quickly enough to respect the safety requirement.

    ● The earth electrode resistance of a measuring circuit with a probe shall not exceed table1(page 12). For the RCD range of Model 6050, distortion factor of test current is improved compared with our traditional instruments. Therefore, at operating time measurement of RCD, operating time of some RCD and our traditional instruments may differ a little.
