Measurement Category
DS1000Z 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.
