WARNING
Read the instructions in this manual before performing installation, and take
note of the following precautions:
 Ensure that all incoming AC power and other power sources are turned
OFF before performing any work on the instrument. Failure to do so may
result in serious or even fatal injury and/or equipment damage.
 Before connecting the instrument to the power source, check the labels
on the back of the instrument to ensure that your instrument is equipped
with the appropriate power supply voltage, input voltages and currents.
 Under no circumstances should the instrument be connected to a
power source if it is damaged.
 To prevent potential fire or shock hazard, do not expose the
instrument to rain or moisture.
 The secondary of an external current transformer must never be allowed
to be open circuit when the primary is energized. An open circuit can
cause high voltages, possibly resulting in equipment damage, fire and
even serious or fatal injury. Ensure that the current transformer wiring is
secured using an external strain relief to reduce mechanical strain on
the screw terminals, if necessary.
 Only qualified personnel familiar with the instrument and its associated
electrical equipment must perform setup procedures.
 Do not open the instrument under any circumstances when it is
connected to a power source.
 Do not use the instrument for primary protection functions where failure
of the device can cause fire, injury or death. The instrument can only be
used for secondary protection if needed.
