What is the difference between CAT II and CAT III multimeter?

CAT II-rated test instruments cover the local level of circuits for fixed or non-fixed power devices. CAT III-rated test instruments can withstand the transient voltage range found on most distribution circuits. These instruments are used primarily on fixed primary feeders or branch circuits.

What is required to fly a CAT II ILS approach?

In this country, approach minimums are based on reported visibility. The Cat II ILS has a DH of less than 200 feet, but not less than 100 feet, with visibility minimums of between 1,800 RVR and 1,200 RVR. Use of a Cat II ILS requires certain additional aircraft equipment, ground facilities, and pilot training.
