●Keep your fingers and hands behind the protective
fingerguardduringmeasurement.
This instrument measures insulation resistances and check
whether the insulations of electrical equipments or circuits are
in good condition or not. So, please check the voltage that
can be applied to the equipment under test before making a
measurement.
