Current Output - Omicron CMC 310 User Manual

3.2.2

CURRENT OUTPUT

WARNING
Death or severe injury caused by dangerous inductive loads possible
If charged with current, inductive loads may store a dangerous amount of energy. For
example, an energy of <350 mJ is considered safe according to the IEC 61010-1 safety
standard.
► Make sure that the possibly stored energy of the inductive device under test is within
safe limits.
► Do not use the CMC test set for the measurement on high inductances (power
transformer, current transformer) due to the discharging processes.
► If in doubt, contact OMICRON Support for more information.
WARNING
Death or severe injury caused by dangerous voltage levels on conductive parts
possible
Although the output voltages of the current generators are within touch-safe limits, the
insulation to other input and output groups is implemented as functional insulation only.
Therefore, the outputs can conduct dangerous voltages.
► Observe the wiring instructions and safety precautions given in section "Wiring" in the
Safe use of CMC test sets manual.
► Do not touch open conductive parts with live current signals (e.g. blank screw
terminals) while the CMC test set is switched on.
NOTICE
Equipment damage possible
An external infeed could damage or destroy the current output. The outputs are protected in switched-
off state by a short-circuit relay.
► Make sure that there is no infeed from an external source.

→ Section 4.4.2 "Current outputs" on page 22.
Each output is galvanically separated from all other connections of the
CMC 310. All current outputs are protected against open circuits, short
circuits, overload, and overtemperature.
