IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Safety Warnings and Precautions
WARNING:
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
1. Electrical shock can cause death or injury! NEVER TOUCH exposed conductors of electricity.
2. Inspect the Voltmeter before use. In addition to a general inspection, look specifically for:
a. Pay special attention to the insulation protecting the connectors.
b. Check the probes for exposed metal, damaged insulation, and continuity.
c. Replace damaged probes immediately, before use.
3. Do not use the Voltmeter if:
a. The electrodes (probes) are damaged in any way.
b. The interface cable between the electrodes (probes) is damaged.
c.
The outer surface of the electrodes (probes) is grimy.
d. Any abnormal operation is detected. (If in doubt about the condition of the meter, have it
serviced.)
4. Never touch the interface cable between the two electrodes (probes) of the meter.
5.
Observe work area conditions. Do not test voltages in damp or wet locations. Don’t expose to
rain. Keep work area clean and well lit.
6. Do not connect the device to HV permanently. (3 minutes max.)
7. Don't work alone - in the event of an emergency another person's presence may be essential.
8.
In the event that moisture or water permeates the device, disconnect the device instantly and
contact manufacturer.
9. All safety measures that are obligatory in distribution companies in connection with 33kV
networks must be taken operating the meter
10. The maximum voltage to be connected to the device is 33 kV AC. Higher voltages will cause
damages to the device and put the user`s life at risk.
11. Use caution when working near voltages around 33kV AC. Voltages this high present a risk of
electric shock.
12. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate any meter when
you are tired.
