Safety Precautions
The following are general safety precautions that are
not necessarily related to any specific part or
procedure, and do not necessarily appear elsewhere in
this publication. These precautions must be
thoroughly understood and applied to all phases of
operation and maintenance.
Resuscitation
Personnel working with or near high voltages should
be familiar with modern methods of resuscitation.
Keep Away From Live Circuits
Operating personnel must at all times observe normal
safety regulations. Do not replace components or make
adjustments to the equipment with high voltage
turned on. To avoid casualties, always remove power.
Do Not Service Or Adjust Alone
Under no circumstances should any person reach into
an enclosure for the purpose of service or adjustment
of equipment except in the presence of someone who is
capable of rendering aid.
Safety Earth Ground
An uninterruptible earth safety ground must be
supplied from the main power source to test
instruments. Grounding one conductor of a two-
conductor power cable is not sufficient protection.
Serious injury or death can occur if this grounding is
not properly supplied.
