1 Important Information
These operating instructions are intended for the use of adequately
trained personnel.
The following symbols are used in these operating instructions and on
the CABPAT.
Caution, risk of electric shock.
Indicates instructions must be followed to avoid danger
to persons.
Caution, risk of danger. The operating instructions must
be adhered to in order to avoid danger.
Caution, risk of electric shock.
Always ensure that the equipment under test is discon-
nected from any supply before connecting to
the tester.
It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the operation of the unit
is correct and that
the accuracy of the measurements are within specication.
Before use, ensure unit is clean and dry; visually inspect all leads, con-
nectors and case. Any
damage or wear must be rectied prior to use.

2 Introduction
The CABPAT is a hand held battery powered unit suitable for carrying out
electrical
safety checks on:
• Class I appliances
• Class II appliances
• IEC mains leads
• Extension leads

User Interface
The LCD display shows test progress, results for individual tests and the
overall test result for an appliance or mains cord.
Measurements displayed next to the RPE icon indicate the resistance of
the protective earth conductor.
Measurements displayed next to the RISO icon indicate the resistance
measured by the insulation test.
Measurements displayed next to the ILEAK icon indicate the leakage cur-
rent measured while the appliance under test is powered from the mains
supply at the tester mains outlet socket.
Tests are initiated using the three push buttons.

PRODUCT MANUAL
Power ON/OFF = press and hold the CL I and CL II
test buttons simultaneously, CABPAT will power on/o when buttons are
released.
Note: The unit will automatically switch OFF after approximately 3
minutes if no keys are pressed.

3 Performing Tests
Press keys CL I and CL II test buttons together to switch on the unit. When
the unit is ready the display will be as shown below.
3.1 Testing a Class I Appliance
Visually inspect the appliance as per requirements of AS/NZS3760. If the
appliance passes a visual inspection proceed with the electrical tests.
Plug the black test lead into the Earth/Insulation test terminal on the CAB-
PAT end panel.
Plug the appliance into the CABPAT front panel test socket.
Connect the black test probe to an exposed metal part on the appliance.
If the Appliance under test has an ON/OFF switch, make sure it is in the
ON position.
Press the CL I test button to start a Class I test sequence.
The CABPAT will now test the continuity of the protective earth.

PRODUCT MANUAL
If the measured value is greater than the 1 ohm pass/fail threshold, the mea-
sured value is displayed and the unit indicates a fail result as shown below.
If the measured value is less than or equal to the 1 ohm pass/fail threshold,
the measured value is displayed and the unit indicates a pass result, as
shown below.
If the Earth Continuity test has passed then the unit will proceed with an
Insulation test.
Note: The power switch on the appliance under test must be in the
ON position to perform an insulation test. If no appliance is detected
the CABPAT will display LO LOAD.
If the LO LOAd enunciator is displayed, the load presented by the appli-
ance may be too small for the CABPAT to detect. In this case, press the CL I
test button to continue.
9
PRODUCT MANUAL
If the Insulation test measures below the 1Mohm pass/fail threshold, the
measured value is displayed and the unit indicates a fail.
If the measured value is greater than or equal to the 1 Mohm pass/fail thresh-
old, the measured value is displayed and the unit indicates a pass result.
3.2 Testing a Class I Appliance with Leakage
Visually inspect the appliance as per requirements of AS/NZS3760. If the
appliance passes a visual inspection proceed with the electrical tests.
Plug the mains lead into the CABPAT and a mains supply socket.
When plugging the mains lead into the CABPAT ensure that the
polarity orientation of the connector is correct. DO NOT FORCE
THE PLUG INTO THE CONNECTOR, doing so may damage the
CABPAT.
Plug the black test lead into the Earth/Insulation test terminal on the CABPAT
end panel. Plug the appliance into the CABPAT front panel test socket.
Connect the black test probe to an exposed metal part on the appliance.
If the Appliance under test has an ON/OFF switch, make sure it is in the ON
position. Press and hold the Leakage button and then the CL I test button.
The CABPAT will now test the continuity of the protective earth.
If the measured value is greater than the 1 ohm pass/fail threshold, the
measured value is displayed and the unit indicates a fail.

PRODUCT MANUAL
If the measured value is less than or equal to the 1ohm pass/fail threshold, the
measured value is displayed and the unit indicates a pass result. The unit will
proceed with a Leakage test.
Note: The power switch on the appliance under test must be in the ON
position to perform a leakage test. If no appliance is detected the CABPAT
will display LO LOAD.
The ILEAK icon will ash, press the Leakage button to start a Leakage test.
The mains supply status is checked and the status is indicated using the LN, LE
and NE enunciators of the LCD.
LN LE NE Mains Status
ON ON OFF Correct
Flash Flash OFF No mains
OFF Flash Flash Earth fault
OFF Flash Flash Live/neutral reserved
If the LO LOAd enunciator is displayed, the load presented by the appliance
may be too small for the CABPAT to detect. In this case, press
the Leakage button to continue.
Note: If the High Load enunciator is displayed, the load presented by
the appliance may be too great for the CABPAT and users should carry
out an insulation test. Continuing with the leakage test may blow the
fuse.
If the Leakage current is greater than 5mA the FAIL enunciator is illuminated.
