weakened components. Pay particular attention
to the insulation surrounding the jaws. Open and
close the Clamp, noting detent action indicating
proper mechanical operation of SIAC
circuit feature.
Use caution when working with voltages above
60 V dc, 30 V ac rms or 42 V ac peak. Such
voltages pose a shock hazard.
