1.6 Safety Precautions
The power plug must be a three-contact device and should be inserted only into a three-
contact mating socket where the third contact provides a ground connection. If power is
provided through an extension cable, the ground connection must be continuous.
Any
discontinuity in the ground lead may render the unit unsafe for use!
The testing of inductive loads such as transformers requires that special precautions be taken
to avoid damage to the instrument and/or injury to the operator! Please refer to chapter 7.
