AC Power
The instrument is designed to operate from a power source that provides no more
than 250 volts RMS between the two supply conductors or between either supply
conductor and ground.
Ground the Instrument
The GB1400 is grounded through its AC power cord. Plug this power cord only
into a properly grounded, three-conductor outlet. If you operate the instrument
without a proper ground then all metal surfaces on the instrument become
potential shock hazards.
To avoid potential hazards, use this product only as specified.
Use the Proper Fuse
Operating the instrument with an improper fuse creates a fire hazard. The correct
fuses to install in the GB1400 are shown below:
Power Voltage
Fuse Type
115 VAC
5A, Slo-Blo
230 VAC

Do Not Operate in Explosive Atmospheres
This instrument does not provide protection from static discharges or arcing
components and therefore must not be operated in an explosive atmosphere.
