e.g. a protective cover, you can use the product outdoors.

Performing measurements
Take the following measures for your safety:
● Observe all voltage and current ratings of the instrument, the probes, and the
accessories. Exceeding the allowed limits can lead to an electric shock.
Limits and ratings are marked on the products and listed in the data sheets.
Consider that the rated values depend on the frequency. The limitation curves
or values are provided in the data sheet.
● Never cause any short circuits when measuring sources with high output cur-
rents.
● When working with current probes, observe the additional operating condi-
tions specified in these safety instructions.
● Prevent the probe from receiving mechanical shock. Avoid putting excessive
strain on the probe cable or exposing it to sharp bends. Touching a broken
cable during measurements can cause injuries.
● Set up all probe connections to the instrument before applying power.
