Two-hand control panel is non-separating protection device. In general, it serve to ensure the location of both hands of a test system operator who gives a control signal for applying a dangerous test voltage. Two-hand control panel thus ascertain that intervention by the operator in dangerous situations is avoided. A two-hand start control should be used for test stations where dangerous voltages are applied to tested objects without test covers or test probes. This safety module is intended for protection with two hand control device and an emergency switch. Both buttons on the two hand control device must be pressed during the test. If any of the buttons is switched off the safety module will disconnect the measuring circuits from the mains. If the emergency switch is activated the test system will be disconnected from the mains. The START button is intended to activate the safety module after being (re-)energized.
