1. Safety Rules
The Non-contact high voltage detector has been
designed with safety in mind. However, no design can
completely protect against incorrect use.
Electrical circuits are dangerous and lethal through
lack of caution or poor safety practice. The following
rules should reduce the danger:
˙
Read the user manual carefully and completely before
using the Non-contact high voltage detector. Fully
understand the instructions before using this product.
Follow the instructions for every test. Take all the
necessary precautions. Do not exceed the limits of
this Non-contact high voltage detector.
˙
The Non-contact high voltage detector must never be
in physical contact with any conductor higher than
1kV. This is a proximity detector, not a detector which
works by contact.
˙
Always use a fiber glass rod or any authorized stick.
˙
A high voltage test is carried out with the Non-contact
high voltage detector attached to a hot stick.
˙
Verify the rotary switch setting before measuring.
Make sure it is on the correct setting for your
application.
˙
Always check that the Non-contact high voltage
detector is working before and after the test.
˙
Do not touch any exposed wiring, connections, or
other "live" parts of an electrical circuit.
