These test probes from Chauvin Arnoux are specifically designed for use with modular strip terminals mounted on DIN rails. They enable safe and reliable measurements in electrical installations and are intended for use in switchgear with IP2X contacts. The test probes feature a sheathed, fully insulated conductive area, which prevents accidental contact and thus increases operator safety. The set includes two test probes, each with a diameter of 2 mm, as well as a socket with 4 mm Ø, serving as the connection technology.
Applications
These test probes are designed for measurements on modular strip terminals in switchgear, particularly in systems mounted on DIN rails. They are suitable for applications in electrical installations, maintenance and servicing of electrical systems, as well as testing of switching devices and fuses. The application is intended for environments where a high safety class is required, especially in category CAT IV.
Functions and Features in Detail
The test probes have a diameter of 2 mm, enabling precise and secure contact at tight connection points. The socket with 4 mm Ø serves as a connection point for measuring instruments or other test devices. The conductive area is fully sheathed to avoid direct contact with conductive parts. The test probes are rated for a maximum voltage of 1000 V and a current load capacity of up to 10 A, making them suitable for a wide range of measurement tasks in industrial and commercial installations.
Technology Explained Simply
The protection rating of the test probes ensures that the conductive part is fully insulated, minimizing the risk of short circuits or electric shocks. Category CAT IV refers to the highest safety level for measuring instruments and accessories used near power supply networks. Therefore, the test probes are suitable for use near distributors, metering installations, or other primary power sources. The UL certification confirms compliance with international safety standards.
Compatibility and Accessories
The test probes are specifically designed for modular systems with IP2X contacts, commonly used in modern switchgear. The socket with 4 mm Ø allows connection to standard measuring instruments equipped with corresponding sockets. The test probes are supplied as a set of two pieces, one red and one black, to enable clear identification of positive and negative polarity.
Mounting and Installation
The test probes are directly connected to the connection points of modular strip terminals. The socket is connected to the measuring instrument, with the insulation of the conductive area ensuring safe handling. No additional tools or mounting aids are required. The test probes are intended for direct use and require no additional preparation.
Advantages in Operation
The test probes offer high safety due to the complete insulation of the conductive area. The combination of 2 mm test probe and 4 mm socket enables flexible and precise application. The UL certification and CAT IV category guarantee suitability for demanding measurement tasks in electrical engineering. The test probes are rated for a maximum voltage of 1000 V and a current load capacity of 10 A, enabling broad application in industrial and commercial electrical engineering.
