Power Source
The instruments are intended to operate from a power source that will not apply more
than 264V ac rms between the supply conductors or between either supply conductor and
ground. A protective ground connection by way of the grounding conductor in the power
cord is essential for safe operation.
Use the Proper Fuse
To avoid fire hazard, use only a fuse identical in type, voltage rating, and current rating
as specified on the rear panel fuse rating label. Never bypass a fuse by shorting across
the fuse terminals.
Grounding the Standard
These are Safety Class I (grounded enclosure) instruments as defined in IEC 348. To
avoid electrical shock, plug the power cord into a properly wired earth grounded
receptacle, or ground the GROUND binding post before connecting anything to any of
the instrument binding posts. A protective ground connection by way of the grounding
conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation when using ac line power.
Use the Proper Power Cord
Use only the power cord and connector appropriate for the voltage and plug
configuration in your country.
Use only a power cord that is in good condition.
Refer cord and connector changes to qualified service personnel.
