Purchasing the correct instrument for the application is vitally important. Indiscriminate selection based on price alone is a safety risk and could prove much more costly. Even fatal. Instruments should bemanufactured to IEC standards to ensure safe operation. These are categorized as CAT I to CAT IV. The higher category corresponds to electrical environments with greater transient energy and is also required for humid environments. Consider the application and look carefully at the instrument’s specifications before making a purchasing decision.
