E6198B Switch/Load Unit User Manual
Verify there are multiple and sufficient protective means (rated
for the voltages you are applying) to assure the operator will
NOT come into contact with any energized conductor even if
one of the protective means fails to work as intended. For
example, the inner side of a case, cabinet, door cover or panel
can be covered with an insulating material as well as routing the
test cables to the front panel connectors of the module through
non-conductive, flexible conduit such as that used in electrical
power distribution.
Symbols and markings on the system, in manuals and on
instruments alert you to potential risks, provide information
about conditions, and comply with international regulations.
Table 2-2 defines the symbols and markings you may find in a
manual or on an instrument.
