• Ground the Instrument before Making External Connections
Securely connect the protective grounding before connecting to the item under
measurement or to an external control unit.
Before touching the target device, turn off this instrument and check that there is
no voltage or current being output.
• Measurement Category
The measurement category of this instrument signal input terminals is Other (O).
Do not use it to measure the main power supply or for Measurement Categories
II, III, and IV.
• Install or Use the Instrument in Appropriate Locations
• This instrument is designed to be used indoors. Do not install or use it
outdoors.
• Install the instrument so that you can immediately remove the power cord if
an abnormal or dangerous condition occurs.
• Using in a Floating Condition
• Depending on the connected external device, dangerous voltage may appear
at the terminals if the instrument is used in a floating condition. Be careful of
electric shock and electric discharge.
• To prevent electric shock, remove rings, watches, and other metallic
accessories and jewelry before operation.
• Wiring Correctly
Dangerous voltage may appear at the terminals if the instrument is used in a
floating condition. If you do not connect the devices correctly, not only will it
damage the instrument or the target device, it may also lead to electric shock or
fire. Be careful when you connect the lead wires, and be sure to check the
following points.
• When using the instrument in a floating condition, make sure that the electric
potential of each output terminal is within ±250 Vpeak relative to the ground.
Before output (before turning on the output), check that:
• Lead wires are connected to the instrument’s output terminals correctly.
• Lead wires are connected to the target device correctly.
During output, check that:
• Never touch the terminals and the connected lead wires when the item under
measurement is on.
