HVD3102 and HVD3106 High-Voltage Differential Probes
Connect and disconnect properly. Always make the connections from the probe input leads to
the probe accessory that you intend to use before making any connections to a voltage source.
Do not connect accessories to (or disconnect from) a voltage source unless they are first
connected to the probe input leads. Avoid damaging cables through excessive bending.
Use only accessories compatible with the probe. Use only accessories that are rated for the
application. Substituting other accessories (except those specified in this manual) may create a
shock or burn hazard. Ensure the connections between probe input leads and probe
accessories are secure before connecting them to a voltage source.
Comply with the voltage derating curve. When measuring higher frequency signals, comply
with the Voltage vs. Frequency Derating Curve.
Use only within the operational environment listed. Do not use in wet or explosive
atmospheres.
Do not remove the probe's casing. Touching exposed connections may result in electric
shock.
Keep product surfaces clean and dry.
Handle with care. Probe accessory tips are sharp. They can puncture skin or cause other bodily
injury if not handled properly.
Keep fingers behind the finger guard of the probe accessories.
Do not operate with suspected failures. Before each use, inspect the probe and accessories
for any damage such as tears or other defects in the probe body, cable jacket, accessories, etc.
If any part is damaged, cease operation immediately and sequester the probe from inadvertent
use.
