•
Properly terminate the sense leads to prevent exposure to
hazardous voltages on the sense terminals. The voltage
sense terminals are at output voltage when the two-wire
function is set.

Do not touch exposed metal on banana plugs, they can have
voltages that could cause death.
•
Do not use a two-conductor mains power cord unless you
install a protective ground wire to the Product ground
terminal before you operate the Product.
