Safety Requirements
Warning
Preparation before use | Please connect this device to AC power supply with the power cable provided. The AC input voltage of the line reaches the rated value of this device. See the product manual for specific rated value. The line voltage switch of this device matches the line voltage. The line voltage of the line fuse of this device is correct. This device is not intended for measuring the main circuit. |
Check all terminal rated values | Please check all rated values and marking instructions on the product to avoid fire and the impact of excessive current. Please consult the product manual for detailed rated values before connection. |
Use the power cord properly | You can only use the special power cord for the instrument approved by the local and state standards. Please check whether the insulation layer of the cord is damaged, or the cord is exposed, and test whether the cord is conductive. If the cord is damaged, please replace it before using the instrument. |
Instrument Grounding | To avoid electric shock, the grounding conductor must be connected to the ground. This product is grounded through the grounding conductor of the power supply. Please be sure to ground this product before it is powered on. |
AC power supply | Please use the AC power supply specified for this device. Please use the power cord approved by your country and confirm that the insulation layer is not damaged. |
