Notes about Usage
Comply with the following precautions to use the instrument safely and to
make full use of its functionality.
WARNING
• This instrument is a probe for measuring current. Use it only
for measuring current.
• Do not clamp a bare conductor. Such act is dangerous
because the core and shield case are not insulated.
• Be careful not to damage the insulation cover of the
conductor.
• If the waveform measuring instrument has measurement
terminals other than the terminal that the output terminal (BNC)
of this instrument (BNC) is connected to, be careful of the
following so that connecting other inputs to those terminals
do not make the connected terminal of this instrument or the
internal circuitry live and dangerous.
• Be sure to ground the measurement instrument.
• When connecting the probe to the object under
measurement, be careful of electric shock. Do not remove
the probe from the measurement instrument while the probe
is connected to the object under measurement.
• Before connecting the probe to the object under
measurement, check that the measuring instrument and
the power supply are grounded properly and that the probe
output connector and power plug are connected to the
measuring instrument’s BNC connector and power supply
receptacle, respectively.
• Refer to the precautions (warnings) regarding electric shock
and other safety matters of the devices to be connected,
and use the devices carefully.
• Do not let the instrument get wet or operate it with wet hands.
Doing so may cause electric shock.
