This instrument is designed to prevent accidental shock to operator when properly
used. However, no engineering design can render safe an instrument which is used
carelessely. Therefore, this manual must be read carefully and completely before
making any measurments. Failure to follow directions can result in serious or fatal
accident.
SHOCK HAZARD:
As defined in IEC-1010-1 Safety Requirements for Electrical
Equipment for Measurement, Control and Laboratory Use, a shock hazard shall be
considered to exist at any part involving a potential in excess of 30 volts rms (sine wave) or
42.4 volts DC or peak where a leakage current from that part to ground exceeds 0.5 MIU
(Measurement Indication Units) when measured with an appropriate instrument as defined
in Section 6.3.1.2 Annex A of IEC-1010-1.
