safety, the static-safe accessories must provide at least 1 MΩ of isolation
from ground. Purchase acceptable ESD accessories from your local
supplier.
These techniques for a static-safe work station should not be used when working
on circuitry with a vol tage potential greater than 500 vol ts.
To protect against ESD damage, always use the following steps when
connecting your probe to the oscilloscope.
If the Device Under Test (DUT) is not grounded to the oscilloscope via
1
the AC mains ground, connect the DUT ground to the oscilloscope
ground. An example of a device having a floating ground would be a
battery-powered DUT.
Attach the probe head to the DUT.

At this point, the N2800A-series probe amplifier must not be connected to the
oscilloscope or the probe head.
Connect the probe amplifier to the oscilloscope while hand tightening
3
the dark gray clutch ring. The clutch ring limits the applied torque to 8
in-lb (±1 in-lb).
Connect the probe head to the probe amplifier.
