  The tests should only be performed by competent persons who are familiar 

with the requirements of the type of tests suitable for portable appliances. 

  It is potentially hazardous for both user and appliance should the wrong type 

of tests be undertaken or if testing is carried out in an incorrect sequence. 

  It is important that you fully understand the various tests required and how 

they should be performed. 

  The appliance must have passed the visual inspection, the protective bonding 

resistance test (class I), and the insulation test (in this sequence) prior to any 
other test. If any of these fail further testing must be stopped and any faults 
must be rectified. 

  During the protective conductor current test, the touch current test and the 

load test, the appliance will be energized at mains voltage. For this purpose, 
switch on the appliance. Appliances driven by motors or equipped with 
heating units may present a danger for the person testing (comply with the 
appliance instruction manual!). Please ensure that the appliance is in a safe 
condition to run and secure prior to testing.
