WARNING
This ground connection is critical to the safe operation of the probe.
Failure to make this connection when making high voltage
measurements may result in personal injury or damage to the probe
or voltmeter. This connection must always be made BEFORE the
probe tip comes into contact with the high voltage and must not be
removed until after the probe tip has been removed from the high
voltage source.
WARNING
Do not connect the ground clip lead to the high voltage source or the
probe lip to ground for any reason.
WARNING
Before turning the high voltage on, make sure that no part of your
body is in contact with the device under test.
5.
Measure the voltage remembering that the voltage being measured is 1000 times greater then the
voltmeter reading.
6.
Turn the high voltage off.
7.
Disconnect the probe tip from the high voltage source BEFORE removing the ground clip lead.
Cleaning
Clean only the exterior probe body and cables. Use a soft cotton cloth lightly moistened with a mild
solution of detergent and water. Do not allow any portion of the probe to submerge at any time.
Dry the probe thoroughly before attempting to make voltage measurement.
Do not subject the probe to solvent fumes as these can cause deterioration of the probe body and cables.
