1. Safety Precautions Electricity can cause severe injuries, even with low voltage or current. Therefore, it is extremely important that you read the following Information before using your Digital Loop / PSC Tester. 1.1 This Instrument must only be used and operated by a competent trained person and in strict accordance with the instructions.
BESANTEK 1.5 The tester has been designed with your safety in mind. However, there is no design can completely protect against incorrect use. Electrical circuits can be dangerous and/or lethal when a lack of caution or poor safety practice is used. Use caution in the presence of voltage above 24V as these pose a shock hazard.
