DLRO2 and DLRO2X safety warnings
These safety warnings must be read and understood before the instrument is used. Retain for future reference.
Warning: This instrument must be operated only by suitably trained and competent people.
Protection provided by the instrument may be impaired if it is not used in a manner specified by the manufacturer.

Local Health and Safety Legislation requires users of this equipment and their employers to carry out valid risk assessments of all electrical work to identify potential sources of electrical danger and risk of electrical injury such as inadvertent short circuits. Where the assessments show that the risk is significant then the use of fused test leads may be appropriate.
If battery power is lost during the test, then the user will no longer be warned that the load is being discharged. The user must check by independent means that the load is discharged before breaking connection.
Disconnect all test leads and switch the instrument OFF before opening the battery. Covers must be in place before reconnecting the test leads.
Ensure every cell in the battery compartment is of identical type. Never mix rechargeable and nonchargeable cells.
This product is not intrinsically safe. Do not use it in an explosive atmosphere.
Protection provided by the instrument may be impaired if it is not used in a manner specified by the manufacturer.
The voltage warning function will operate only if the instrument is switched on and working correctly.
In the absence of an indication do not assume that there are no hazardous voltages
The voltage indicator and current discharge features must be regarded as additional safety features and MUST not substitute the normal safe working practice which MUST be followed.
The instrument must not be used if any part of it is damaged or if the terminal shutter is missing.
The circuit under test must be switched off, de-energized, securely isolated and proved dead before test connections are made.
Circuit connections, exposed conductive parts and other metalwork of an installation or equipment under test must not be touched during testing.
Only “Megger” approved test leads with right-angled instrument connectors must be used with this instrument. Test leads must be at least 1 m in length and provide a total loop impedance ≥ 26 mΩ.
When inductive loads are measured it is essential that the current carrying leads are securely clamped to the item being tested and that they are not removed before any stored charge has been discharged at the end of the test. Failure to comply with these instructions might result in an arc being producedwhich might be dangerous for the instrument and the operator.
All test leads, probes and crocodile clips must be in good order, clean, and with no broken or cracked insulation.
Verify the integrity of the test leads before use.
The safe maximum limit of a measurement connection is that of the lowest rated component in the measurement circuit formed by the instrument, test leads and any accessories.
Ensure that hands remain behind finger guards of probes and clips.

Wind turbine
lightning protection test leads

KC Test Leads

The KC-series of test leads provide a complete and convenient solution to the problem of finding reliable test leads that are long enough for testing the continuity of lightning protection conductors in wind turbines.
KC-series wind turbine test leads are available in 100 m, 60 m and 30 m (330 ft, 200 ft and 100 ft) versions that are equally suitable for use on site or in the manufacturing plant.
All lead set versions are 10 A rated and fully compatible with DLRO2 and DLRO2X.
