Safety Information

Safety Information

W a r n i n g

To avoid personal injury and to prevent fire or damage to this product or products 

connected to it, review and comply with the following safety precautions (these 

apply to the accessories in the N2879A kit and the N2870A Series probes). Be 

aware that if you use this probe assembly in a manner not specified, the protection 

this product provides may be impaired.

 

 

Handle Probe Tips / Accessories Carefully

 

Some of the probe tips / accessories are very sharp (the spring tips and ground 

spring, for example). You should handle these with care to avoid personal injury. 

Use Only Grounded Instruments

 

Do not connect the probe’s ground lead to a potential other than earth ground. 

Always make sure the probe and the oscilloscope are grounded properly.

 

 

Connect and Disconnect Properly

 

Connect the probe to the oscilloscope and connect the ground lead to earth 

ground before connecting the probe to the circuit under test. Disconnect the 

probe input and the probe ground lead from the circuit under test before 

disconnecting the probe from the oscilloscope.

 

 

Observe Probe Ratings

 

Do not apply any electrical potential to the probe input which exceeds the 

maximum rating of the probe. Make sure to comply with the voltage versus 

frequency derating curve in the N2870A Series User’s Guide. 

 

 

Keep Away From Live Circuits

 

Avoid open circuitry. Do not touch connections or components when power is 

present. 

 

 

Indoor Use Only

 

Do not operate in wet/damp environments. Keep product surfaces dry and clean. 

 

 

Do Not Operate With Suspected Failures

 

Refer to qualified service personnel.

Do Not Operate in an Explosive Environment
