• Use only correct measurement category (CAT), voltage, and amperage rated
probes, test leads, and adapters for the measurement.
• Measure a known voltage first to make sure that the Product operates
correctly.
• Do not use test leads if they are damaged. Examine the test leads for
damaged insulation and measure a known voltage.
