Do not touch live circuits 

 

 

 

Instrument covers must not be removed by operating personnel. Component replacement and 
internal adjustments must be made by qualified service-trained maintenance personnel who 
are aware of the hazards involved when the instrument's covers and shields are removed. 
Under certain conditions, even with the power cord removed, dangerous voltages may exist 
when the covers are removed. To avoid injuries, always disconnect the power cord from the 
instrument, disconnect all other connections (for example, test leads, computer interface 
cables, etc.), discharge all circuits, and verify there are no hazardous voltages present on any 
conductors by measurements with a properly-operating voltage-sensing device before touching 
any internal parts. Verify the voltage-sensing device is working properly before and after 
making the measurements by testing with known-operating voltage sources and test for both 

DC

 and 

AC

 voltages. Do not attempt any service or adjustment unless another person capable of 

rendering first aid and resuscitation is present.  

Do not insert any object into an instrument's ventilation openings or other openings. 

 

 

 

Hazardous voltages may be present in unexpected locations in circuitry being tested when a 
fault condition in the circuit exists. 

 
Servicing 
 

 

 
Do not substitute parts that are not approved by B&K Precision or modify this instrument. 
Return the instrument to B&K Precision for service and repair to ensure that safety and 
performance features are maintained.
