1.1 Requirements for Testing Personnel

Electrical safety tests of portable electrical equipment can be carried out by compe-
tent persons or qualified electricians. Due to the definitions of the German technical
guideline for operational safety "Competent persons – specific requirements – elec-
trical hazards" (TRBS "Befähigte Personen – Besondere Anforderungen – Elektrische
 Gefährdungen"), it is no longer possible to let the testing be carried out only by elec-
trotechnically trained persons. However, the electrotechnically trained person can take
over tasks in a testing team (e.g. qualified electrician / electrotechnically trained person)
within the framework of periodic tests and thus support the qualified electrician.
Competent Person
In terms of the German Health and Safety at Work Regulation, a competent person is someone
who has the required expert knowledge for the testing of electrical equipment due to his/her vo-
cational education, professional experience and contemporary occupational activity. According to
the German technical guideline for operational safety (TRBS 1203), the competent person must
have finished an electrotechnical vocational education or must have another similar electrotechni-
cal qualification suitable for the testing of portable electrical equipment to ensure protection against
electrical hazards. The term professional experience means that the person has at least one year
of experience regarding the installation, assembly or maintenance of electrical equipment and/or
systems. For the intended testing of portable electrical equipment, the competent person must have
the required detailed knowledge of electrical engineering as well as of the relevant electrotechnical
regulations and must regularly update this knowledge. These demands show that safety-related
evaluation of portable electrical equipment basically requires the attributes of a qualified electrician.
Qualified Electrician
In terms of the German accident prevention regulation "Electrical systems and equipment" (BGV/
GUV A3), a qualified electrician is someone who is able to evaluate the tasks assigned to him/her
due to his/her professional education, knowledge and experience as well as to the knowledge of

7.7 Calibration / System Calibration

Probe calibration (compensation of the test cable): Depending on the test cable used, the probe
should be calibrated again. This calibration is necessary, because the resistance of the test ca-
ble will be taken into consideration for the measuring result of the protective conductor resistance
measurement! The calibration data will be saved permanently in the device.
Go to the "Setup Selection" menu and press <Calibration>.
Connect the connecting cable (test cable) to the yellow "Sonde / Probe" jack and to the green "Kal. /
Cal." jack. Press <Probe Calibration> and confirm the message with <Yes>. Now, probe calibra-
tion has been done successfully.
A ZERO balance / calibration is necessary, if in standstill or with a missing signal the displayed
measured values are not approximately at 0 (e.g. 0.000 mA). For this, go to the start menu and
press <Setup>, <Calibration>. Then, press <ZERO Balance> and start it by pressing <Yes>.
During calibration, no connecting cables of the test sample or other cables must be connected to
the device!
 The device shall be calibrated at the manufacturer's in certain time intervals (see chap-
ter 23 "Maintenance / Calibration").

manufacturer should provide specifications in the accompanying documents.
* Note 2: " Particular requirements" might allow other leakage current values.
* Note 3: In the current issue of the DIN VDE 0751-1 standard, the measurement of the insulating resistance is required, if it is considered to be convenient. Insulation measurement must not be carried
out, if it is excluded in the accompanying documents according to the manufacturer's specifications. Limiting values for the insulating resistance are not specified in the DIN VDE 0751-1/ EN 62353
standard (issue 2008). Here, it is possible to refer to recommendations of the manufacturer or to previously measured values.

11.3 Test Procedure according to VDE 0751-1 According to DIN VDE 0751-1 following sequence of tests to be recommended:
The DIN VDE 0751-1 standard applies for tests of medical electrical devices, medical electrical
systems or of parts of those devices or systems complying with the DIN EN 60601-1 (VDE0 750 Part
1) standard which are carried out prior to commissioning, inspection, maintenance or during periodic
testing in order to evaluate the safety of those devices or systems or their parts. For devices which
are not built according to DIN EN 60601-1 (VDE 0751 Part 1), this standard can be applied anal
ogously under consideration of the safety standards applying to the manufacturing of the device.
(taken from DIN VDE 0751-1:2001-10, section 1.1)
The tests must be carried out by qualified personnel. The qualification must comprise professional
education, knowledge and experience as well as knowledge of the applicable standards and local
provisions. Personnel evaluating safety must be able to detect possible consequences and dangers
that might be caused by devices not complying with the requirements.
(taken from DIN VDE 0751-1: issue 2008-08, section 4.1)
Prior to testing, accompanying documents have to be checked for the manufacturer's recommenda-
tions regarding maintenance and repair, including conditions and precautionary measures.
In the current issue of the DIN VDE 0751-1 standard, the measurement of the insulating resistance
is required, if it is considered to be convenient. Insulation measurement must not be carried out,
if it is excluded in the accompanying documents according to the manufacturer's specifications.
Limiting values for the insulating resistance are not specified in the DIN VDE 0751-1 standard
(issue 2008). Here, it is possible to refer to recommendations of the manufacturer or to previously
measured values. The DIN VDE 0751-1 standard recommends the following order of the tests to
be carried out:

cannot be modified in this menu! After pressing the <Start> button, first the "Visual Inspection"
menu is displayed. Confirm it by pressing a button. After a positive test and pressing a button, a
connection test is started. The test is intended to determine whether a dangerous contact voltage
is applied, whether a test sample is connected and to make sure that there is no short-circuit. After
a positive connection test, the measurement is started. In case of a negative connection test (e.g.
open switch), an information message is displayed. The individual tests (depending on the pre-set-
ting of the test procedure) are displayed subsequently and partly have to be activated or confirmed
by pressing the <Start> button (also see description of the individual measuring types, chapter 8). In
case of faulty individual results that are dangerous, the measurement will be interrupted immediate-
ly. By pressing the <Pause> button, it is possible to interrupt measurement so that e.g. the test cable
with the alligator clip or probe tip can be connected to another measuring point without resulting in
incorrect measurements / indications.
Attention! The mains voltage applied to the test sample will persist during the "Test interrupted" mes-
sage! Incorrect measured values can be deleted by pressing the <Reset> button. After the test has
been successful and is finished, the "Test sample OK" menu is displayed. It is possible to display the
results by pressing <Meas. Value> and to save them by pressing <Save>, <Yes>). The measuring
data will be stored in the selected database (name) and can be read out via a PC.

RFID is a method for automatic and electronic identification of objects per radio technology. For Dimensions:
identification of the object, the data can be read out by wireless technology via a radio frequency approx. 165 x 110 x 80 mm
channel. A marked object only sends its data, if the reader calls the transponder. An RFID system
consists of two components: a transponder and a reader. The transponder (in the following referred 17.2 Operating the RFID Reader
