Learn about state-of-the-art safety functions and what it means to develop a safe test set.

Join us as we dive deep into the development of state-of-the-art safety functions for electrical test sets. We cover a wide range of topics, from the initial safety concept to the final safety functions in compliance with international product safety standards.

Our guest in this episode is Safety Expert Florian Rein. He has a background in electrical engineering and product compliance. He is certified as a CE coordinator and is a member of a national standardization subcommittee. His passion is product safety, and he greatly contributed to the development of safety features for the OMICRON CMC 500 protection relay test set.

Florian describes the many facets of personal safety during electrical testing in power systems. He highlights how safety features are designed into test sets based on a thorough analysis of user behavior, environmental factors, and technical limits. He also talks about many factors involved in the development of safety features, including the importance of performing detailed risk analyses, adhering to international product safety standards, evaluating functional safety, and the role of third-party labels, like CE and TÜV, to verify product safety compliance.

Florian also describes the new safety functions of the CMC 500, and what it means to set new benchmarks for personal safety during electrical testing.
