2.2.1. Work Area
Locate a suitable testing area and be sure you have read all
safety instructions for the operation of the instrument and
suggestions on the test area setup in section 1.4. Safety. Make
sure the work area you choose has a three-prong grounded outlet capable of
supplying the necessary input current to the power source. Be sure the outlet has
been tested for proper wiring before connecting the instrument to it.
The mains plug is used as the disconnecting device and shall
remain readily operable. The socket-outlet shall be installed.
Near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
2.2.2. Power Requirements
This instrument requires a power source of either 115 volts AC ± 10%, 50/60 Hz
single phase or 230 volts AC ±10%, 50/60 Hz single phase. Before applying power
verify that the instrument is set to the correct line voltage (115 or 230 volts). Adjust
the voltage select switch to 115 for use with a 115 volt input. Adjust the voltage select
switch to 230 for use with a 230 volt input. See section 3.2.2. Rear Panel Controls
for an image of the rear panel.
Do not replace the power supply cord with an improperly rated
cord. For North American: A UL listed and CSA labeled power
cord must be used with the instrument in the United States and
Canada. The power cord must include a NEMA5-15 style male plug, SVT or SJT cord
sets, and be rated for at least 125VAC, 10A, number 16 gauge (or 125VAC, 15A,
number 14 gauge) wire or larger, and the length of the cord does not exceed 2 m must
be used. For European: A certified power supply cord not lighter than light PVC
sheathed flexible cord according to IEC 60227, designation H03 VV-F or
H03 VVH2-F (for equipment mass not exceeding 3 kg), or H05 VV-F or H05 VVH2-F2
(for equipment mass exceeding 3 kg), and be rated for at least 3G 0.75 mm² (for rated
current up to 10 A) or 3G 1.0mm² (for rated current over 10 A up to 16 A) wire or
larger, and the length of the cord does not exceed 2 m must be used.
Do not switch the line voltage selector switch located on the
rear panel while the instrument is on or operating. This may
