PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
These safety warnings are provided to ensure the safety of personnel and
proper operation of the instrument.
Read this instruction manual completely and follow all the safety information
before attempting to use or service this instrument.
Safety is the responsibility of the operator!
Tests are to be carried out only on dead circuits! Check for live circuits
before making resistance measurements (safety check).
Always make connections from the instrument
to
the circuit under test.
These megohmmeters are sources of high voltage, as is the sample
connected to them. All persons performing or assisting in the tests must
follow all safety precautions to prevent electrical shock to themselves and to
others.
AEMC considers the use of rubber gloves to be an excellent safety practice
even if the equipment is properly operated and correctly grounded.
When testing capacitance samples, make sure that they have been properly
discharged and that they are safe to touch. Dielectric insulation samples
should be short-circuited for at least five times the amount of time they were
energized.
Never open the back of the instrument while connected to any circuit or
input.
