5. Betjeningsvejledning

This section provides general guidance on using the tools in your kit. Always refer to specific project requirements and local electrical codes.

5.1. Using VDE Insulated Tools

• Skruetrækkere: Select the correct tip size and type (Phillips, flathead, etc.) for the screw. Ensure a firm grip and apply even pressure to prevent stripping.
• Tang: Use combination pliers for gripping and cutting wires. Long-nose pliers are ideal for bending and manipulating wires in tight spaces. Diagonal cutters are for precise wire cutting.
• Wire Stripper: Adjust the stripper to the correct wire gauge. Insert the wire, squeeze the handles, and pull to remove insulation without damaging the conductor.
• Voltage tester: Use to quickly check for the presence of AC voltage in outlets, switches, and wires. Follow the tester's specific instructions for accurate readings.

5.2. Using the VOLTCRAFT VC-22 Digital Multimeter

The VOLTCRAFT VC-22 digital multimeter is a versatile tool for measuring voltage, strøm, modstand og kontinuitet.

1. Tænd: Turn the rotary switch to the desired measurement function (e.g., V~ for AC voltage, V- for DC voltage, Ω for resistance).
2. Forbind kundeemner: Insert the black test lead into the "COM" jack and the red test lead into the "VΩmA" jack for most measurements.
3. Måle:
   • Voltage: Tilslut testledningerne parallelt på tværs af den komponent eller det kredsløb, der skal måles.
   • Modstand/Kontinuitet: Sørg for, at kredsløbet er spændingsløst. Tilslut testledningerne på tværs af komponenten.
   • Strøm: Ensure the circuit is de-energized. Connect the multimeter in series with the circuit. Caution: Incorrect current measurement can damage the multimeter or cause injury.
4. Læs display: The measurement will be shown on the digital display.
5. Sluk: Always turn the multimeter off when not in use to conserve battery life.
