General Information

Introduction

This manual contains information required to test, adjust, troubleshoot, and
repair the HP E1411A and HP E1411B C-Size VXI 5 1/2-Digit Multimeters
(HP E1411 multimeter). See the HP E1326A/E1411A User’s Manual or the
HP E1326B/E1411B User’s Manual for additional information on the HP
E1411 multimeter. Figure 1-1 shows the HP E1411A and E1411B
multimeters.

Safety
Considerations

This product is a Safety Class I instrument that is provided with a protective
earth terminal when installed in the mainframe. The mainframe, multimeter,
and all related documentation should be reviewed for familiarization with
safety markings and instructions before operation or service.

Refer to the WARNINGS page (page 4) in this manual for a summary of
safety information. Safety information for testing, adjusting, and service
follows and is also found throughout this manual.
