Probes and test leads
Before connecting probes or test leads, connect the power cord from the power
connector to a properly grounded power outlet.
Keep fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.
Remove all probes, test leads and accessories that are not in use.
Use only correct Measurement Category (CAT), voltage, temperature, altitude,
and amperage rated probes, test leads, and adapters for any measurement.
Beware of high voltages. Understand the voltage ratings for the probe you are
using and do not exceed those ratings. Two ratings are important to know and
understand:
■
The maximum measurement voltage from the probe tip to the probe reference
lead
■
The maximum floating voltage from the probe reference lead to earth ground
These two voltage ratings depend on the probe and your application. Refer to the
Specifications section of the manual for more information.
