Basic Safety Checks
Background
The IIT-2000/2010/5000/5010 is a high voltage device and as
such, daily safety checks should be made to ensure safe
operation.
1. Ensure all test leads are not broken and are free from defects
such as cracks or splitting.
2. Ensure the safety tester is always connected to an earth
ground.
3. Test the safety tester operation with a low voltage/current
output:
Ensure the safety tester generates a FAIL
judgment when the HIGH VOLTAGE and
RETURN terminals are shorted (using the
lowest
voltage/current as the testing
parameters).
WARNING
Do not use high voltages/currents when the HIGH VOLTAGE
and RETURN terminals are shorted. It may result in damage
to the instrument.
