Safety Warnings and Cautions

WARNING

Observe Maximum Working Voltage. To avoid injury, do not use the 

N2791A probe above 1000 Vrms CAT III (both 10:1 and 100:1 

attenuation settings) between each input lead and earth or between the 

two input leads. Do not use the N2891A probe above 5000 Vrms mains 

isolated (1000:1 attenuation) or 500 Vrms mains isolated (100:1 

attenuation) between the two input leads. Do not use the N2891A probe 

above 5000 Vrms mains isolated (both 100:1 and 1000:1 attenuation 

settings) between each input lead and earth.

WARNING

Must be Grounded. Before making connections to the input 

leads of this probe, ensure that the output BNC connector is 

attached to the BNC channel input of the oscilloscope and the 

oscilloscope is properly grounded.

WARNING

Do Not Operate Without Covers. To avoid electrical shock or fire hazard, 

do not operate this probe with the covers removed.

WARNING

To avoid electric shock, injury, or fire hazard, do not operate this probe in 

wet / damp conditions or in an explosive atmosphere.
