Introduction
IEC 60364-6 specifies the initial testing, continuous monitoring and adjustment of electrical installations in TN, TT or IT systems.
Standardized conditions for post-conditioning experiments. In addition to specifying general standards for carrying out these tests, IEC 60364-6 also covers the need to pass measurements
to verify the requirements. Only in a few cases, such as when measuring insulation resistance, does IEC 60364-6 cover the measuring equipment used.
set feature details. Circuit diagrams given as examples in IEC 60364-6 and referenced in the text of the document are generally not applicable to
actual use.
Conducting tests in electrical installations can easily lead to accidental
outside. Therefore, in addition to simplifying the measurement, technicians need to rely on the measurement device to ensure the safety of the measurement method.
The application of the general safety rules for electrical and electronic measuring devices (IEC 61010-1) for testing of protective measures is not sufficient in itself. exist
Measurements in electrical installations are not only harmful to technicians, but also to third parties due to different measurement methods.
Also, in order to obtain an objective judgement about the equipment, for example periodic testing after equipment handover, continuous insulation monitoring or
In the case of performance assurance, an important prerequisite is to obtain reliable and comparable measurement results using measuring devices from different manufacturers.
