1.1 PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
These safety warnings are provided to ensure the safety of personnel and proper
operation of the instrument.
■ Do not attempt to perform any tests with these instruments until you have read
the instruction manual.
■ Safety is the responsibility of the operator!
■ Tests are to be carried out only on non-energized circuits! Check for live
circuits before making resistance measurements (safety check).
■ High voltage is present, as is the sample connected to it. Anyone performing
or assisting in testing must follow all safety precautions to prevent electrical
shock to themselves and others.
■ Use personal protective equipment where appropriate.
■ When testing samples with a capacitive component, make sure they have
been properly discharged and are safe to touch. Dielectric insulation samples
should be short-circuited for at least five times the amount of time they were
energized.
■ Megohmmeters should never be used in an explosive environment.
■ Only use the leads that are supplied with the megohmmeter. If they are
defective or worn, replace before testing.
