DANGER! HIGH VOLTAGE HAZARD!
This logger can be used with sensors that may be installed in an
energized electrical enclosure or on an energized conductor.
Installation of sensors in an energized electrical enclosure or on an
energized conductor can result in severe injury or death. These
sensors are for installation by qualified personnel only. To avoid
electrical shock, do not install or service these sensors unless you are
qualified to do so. Disconnect and lock out all power sources during
installation and servicing. Please read the user's manual for
instructions and use.
