Safety aspects
Observe all of these precautions to ensure your personal safety. The generators
correspond to Installation Category II (overvoltage category).
Read the following operation manual carefully. Pay special attention to both safety
and operation details!!!
Symbols marked on equipment
WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Dangerous voltages are present. Use
extreme care. Refer to the manual.
GROUND
Indicates protective earth terminal
Power Mains
The equipment is intended to operate with a power mains supply that will not apply
more than 250Vrms between the supply conductors or between either supply
conductor and ground. A proper ground connection, through the grounding
conductor in the power cord, is essential for safe system operation.
Safety Ground and grounding the generators
The generators are grounded through the power cord. To avoid electric shock, plug
the power cord into a properly wired receptacle where earth ground has been
verified by a qualified service person. Do this before making connections to the
input or output terminals of the test equipment.
Without the protective ground connection, all parts of generators are potential
shock hazards. This includes knobs and controls that may appear to be insulators.
The equipment
MUST NOT BE USED
if this protection is impaired.
Use the Proper Power Cord
Use only the power cord and connector specified for your product. Only use a
power cord that is in good condition.
Use the Proper Fuse
To avoid fire hazard, use only the fuse specified in the parts list for your product,
with matching type, voltage rating, and current rating.
Do Not Remove Covers or Panels
To avoid personal injury, do not operate the generators without the panels in place
or covers.
Do Not Operate in Explosive Atmospheres
The generators provides no explosion protection from electrostatic discharges or
arcing components. Do not operate them in an atmosphere of explosive gases
around explosive chemicals.
Electric Overload
Never apply a generator's voltage to a connector which is not specified for that
voltage range.
