1.3 Using of the measuring device
The TRI-KA characteristics analyser should only be used for DC-
measurement of photovoltaic systems. Depending on the country,
the device is only approved for limited maximum currents and
voltages. Please see technical data on page 16. Solar modules ex-
posed to sunlight produce voltage and current. The connectors
and other live parts may pose a risk of high voltage even under
cloudy conditions and diffuse irradiation!
When working on photovoltaic systems, it is vital that the fol-
lowing safety regulations are observed!
The measuring device must only be used by specialist electricians
trained in using the device. Improper handling of the system can
lead to serious accidents and injury. Power or voltage sources
other than solar modules may irreparably damage the measuring
instrument.
Please comply with the applicable safety regulations when work-
ing on roofs, scaffoldings, boom lifts, etc.!
1.4 Measuring cables
Do not disconnect the measuring cables during measurements!
The resulting electric arcs may cause serious injury and irreparably
damage the plug connectors and the measuring instrument.
