Mark the old values as invalid. Cross out the values, enter thecomment "invalid values" and confirm with name, date, and signature.Adjust or program the system to the local line voltage or line frequency before the measure-ment.MeasurementPerform the measurement according to DIN VDE 0751, Part 1 (see ARTD-002.731.17....),and record the value determined as the first measured value.Measurement of the device leakage current according to the residual current procedure(measuring arrangement according to (Fig. 3 / p. 17)) must be given preference, since nodanger for the person performing the measurement or any other persons arises during themeasurement.However, please note the minimum resolution of the leakage current measuring instrumentand any additional manufacturer's data restricting the use of the measuring instrument.
