Power Considerations
The Instrument ships from the factory configured to match the requirements of your local
ac line power. If the Instrument is relocated to another region it may need to be
reconfigured to match the ac line power of the new location. Three things affect the
configuration:
•
Power cord (See Table 2-3.)
•
Line-power fuse (See Table 2-4 and Figure 2-1.)
•
Rear-panel switch setting (115-230, see Table 2-3 and Figure 2-1.)
The following paragraphs describe how to make the changes for a new voltage
configuration. They are also useful to verify that the Instrument’s current power
configuration is correct.

Warning
To avoid shock hazard, connect the instrument power cord to a
power receptacle that has an earth ground connection. A
protective ground connection by way of the grounding
conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation.
The various power cords available for use with the Instrument are listed and shown in
Table 2-3. Use the table to identify your general location and the recommended LC
power cord. Match this LC number to one of the plugs in the drawing, and verify that the
plug on your power cable mates correctly with the local power outlets. If the plug is
incorrect, identify the correct LC number, and order the correct power cable from Fluke
using the part number from Table 2-3.
