Connecting To Line Power - Fluke 5500A Getting Started

Connecting to Line Power

To avoid shock hazard, connect the factory supplied three-
conductor line power cord to a properly grounded power outlet.
Do not use a two-conductor adapter or extension cord; this will
break the protective ground connection.
Use the rear-panel ground terminal for a protective grounding
wire if there is any question as to instrument earth grounding.
The calibrator is shipped with the appropriate line power plug for the country of
purchase. If you need a different type, refer to Table 2 and Figure 3 for a list and
illustration of the line power plug types available from Fluke.
After you verify that the line voltage selection is set correctly and that the correct fuse
for that line voltage is installed, connect the calibrator to a properly grounded three-
prong outlet.
