Description

The Model 2290-5 can contain hazardous voltages. Be certain that the high voltage is
completely discharged before removing or connecting the high-voltage cable. High-voltage
cables can store charge if they are disconnected from the supply while high voltage is turned
on and can cause personal injury or death if not handled properly.
Do not connect the HIGH-VOLTAGE output to exposed circuitry. Any load connected to the
HIGH-VOLTAGE output should be enclosed in a metal shield that is connected to safety earth
ground using #18AWG or larger wire.
The high-voltage output cable connects the Model 2290-5 source output to external equipment.

High-voltage cable installation:

1. Turn off power and allow all voltage to discharge.
2. Install the Model 2290-5-MHV high-voltage cable (see next figure).
