A mains utility switching and distribution site. "Relay protection" refers to the systems used therein to trip high voltage / high current circuit breakers in the distribution path automatically, in the event of a fault being detected e.g overload, phase to ground short etc.
That is to say, as others have said, it's not a place to be bringing toy instruments to work.

Is even that level of meter necessary? Brymen makes many meters for under 100 Euros.
eg. https://brymen.eu/shop/bm2807-cse/

I am not a fun of those web sites that looks like the manufacturer's one and are more expensive than an authorized distributor ...
Anyway Brymen BM2807 CSE is rated 600V only; BM867s is what could satisfy the OP that speak about 1000V.
But really the emplyer should provide what the employee need to carry on the duties.

Very good point on that. Just checking, is it tested by third parties?

BM869s is for sure "UL Listed", not sure about BM867s anyway Brymen is a very reputable company.

I know what it means generally, but I'm thinking the OP might mean something else. Electrical substations usually have a lot more than 1000V in at least part of their wiring. Here in the US they typically don't have any low voltage at all except for perhaps control systems.

Both meters are on the same platform and certifications. The 869s has some features extra.
