Easy-Touch Pro Getting Started Guide 3
Protecting workers begins with training. Operators should understand:
● Basic electricity including the fact that electric current will take any avail-
able path to ground, including through a person.
● How to use the test equipment and how to recognize when high voltage
testing is being performed.
● Not to not touch the product or test fixture hardware during high voltage
testing.
A safe test station is an essential complement to training:
● Use a non-conductive work surface to avoid creating an unintended elec-
trical path between high voltage and workers.
● Verify that the power outlet provides a properly wired, low impedance
earth ground. The connection to earth ground is integral to the power
cord supplied with the tester.
● Do not allow untrained workers to use high voltage test equipment.
● Isolate high voltage testing from untrained employees and post high volt-
age warning signs at the test station.
Medical Safety Warning
An individual using a cardiac pacemaker, an insulin pump, or any electronically-
controlled medical device should NOT perform high voltage testing.
Intended Use
Cirris Easy-Touch Pro testers are designed for electrical testing and are
intended to be used indoors, in a dry environment, at a temperature of 50-104
degrees Fahrenheit (10-40 degrees Celsius). High voltage Insulation Resistance
measurements degrade at over 70% relative humidity.
No User-Serviceable Parts
The tester includes no user-serviceable parts. Attempting repairs or altering
the tester in any way voids the warranty and may lead to an unsafe condition.
