Operating Precautions
The GPT-10000 is a high voltage instrument
that outputs dangerous voltages. The following
section describes precautions and procedures
that must be followed to ensure that the tester
is operated in a safe manner.
The GPT-10000 generates voltages of up to 5kVAC
or 6kVDC -12kVDC. Follow all safety precautions,
warnings and directions given in the following
section when using the instrument.
1. Never touch the safety analyzer, lead wires,
terminals, probes and other connected
equipment when the tester is testing.
2. Do not turn the safety analyzer on and off
quickly or repeatedly. When turning the power
off, please allow a few moments before turning
the power back on. This will allow the
protection circuits to properly initialize.
Do not turn the power off when a test is
running, unless in an emergency.
3. Only use those test leads supplied with the
instrument. Leads with inappropriate gauges
can be dangerous to both the operator and the
instrument.
For GB testing, never use the Sense leads on the
SOURCE terminals.
4. Do not short the HIGH VOLTAGE terminal
with ground. Doing so could charge the chassis
to dangerously high voltages.
