Never install or remove the probe on bare conductors which are energized. The transformer core
and shield are grounded but not insulated and may contact the conductor when the locking lever is open.
Be careful not to damage the insulation surface when making measurements. Before clamping to the
conductor being measured, check that the insulation on the conductor is undamaged, and take care not
to damage the insulation when clamping the conductor. Any damage to the insulation could cause an
electric shock.
Use only indoors within the operational environment listed. Do not use in wet or explosive
atmospheres.
Do not remove the probe's casing. Touching exposed connections may result in electric shock.
Keep product surfaces clean and dry.
Comply with the maximum input current vs. frequency derating when measuring current that
includes a high frequency component. Using the probe at high frequencies or in strong magnetic fields
may cause the device to become abnormally hot, resulting in fire, equipment damage or burns.
Do not operate with suspected failures. Before each use, inspect the probe and accessories for any
damage such as tears or other defects in the probe body, cable jacket, accessories, etc. If any part is
damaged, cease operation immediately and sequester the probe from inadvertent use.
NOTE: Depending on the amplitude and frequency of the current being measured, the sensor head
may emit a resonant sound. This sound may also occur during demagnetizing operation, but it does not
represent a malfunction (device failure).
