THIS IS IMPORTANT

Take time to be safe when working on electrical circuits and equipment. It could

save your life. Avoid unsafe acts and conditions. Do not operate or install the 5200A

before reading this chapter. Installing the 5200A involves wiring high voltage equip-

ment. Follow all provided safety information. Installation must be performed by

someone who understands the dangers of, and is qualified to, wire electrical devices.

If information or instructions are not clear, DO NOT PROCEED until clarification

can be obtained.

ALWAYS:

Follow basic safety rules when working with or near high voltage circuits. The

5200A is a high voltage instrument using 110v. Peripheral devices may also be

high voltage devices.

Consider the result of each act. Keep away from live circuits. Do not change

parts or make adjustments inside the equipment with high voltages on.

Do not service alone.

Do not tamper with interlocks. Safety devices such as interlocks, overload re-

lays, and fuses should never be altered or disconnected except for replacement.

Safety protection devices should never be changed or modified without a clear

understanding of what effect the modification will have on the system.

Do not ground yourself.

Do not energize equipment if there is any evidence of water leakage.

Warnings and Cautions

Safety information is presented in this manual in one of two ways:

- WARNING - RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK This symbol identifies

installation and operation procedures that can result in personal injury

or death if safety information is not followed.

- AVERTISSEMENT – RISQUE DE CHOC ÉLECTRIQUE. Ce symbole

identifie les procédures d’installation et d’opération pouvant entraîner

des blessures ou la mort si les consignes de sécurité ne sont pas suivies.

Safety

- CAUTION - RISK OF DANGER This symbol identifies installation

and operation procedures that can result in personal injury or damage

to equipment if safety information is not followed.

These symbols (

) (

) appear in the left margin of the page to highlight

safety information as it applies to a particular installation or operation step.

A complete list of all safety cautions is provided below. All warnings are provided

in English and French.

Install and use the 5200A only in accordance with information documented in this

manual.

Warnings

WARNINGS are used when personal injury or death can result if safety informa-

tion is not followed.

WARNING: All wiring that involves connections to mains power must be

performed by a qualified licensed electrician, and must conform to all locally

applicable electrical codes.

AVERTISSEMENT : tous les câblages comportant une connexion à l’alimentation

secteur doivent être réalisés par un électricien qualifié et doivent être conformes

aux codes électriques applicables.

WARNING: Do not make connections while power is applied. Turn off power

and assure power “Lockout” before installing or servicing to avoid contact with

electrically powered circuits. This includes working on devices connected to the

relay outputs and auxiliary input systems. Disconnect external power to the

5200A before connecting or disconnecting components and/or peripheral

devices.

AVERTISSEMENT : n’effectuez aucune connexion alors que le circuit est sous

tension. Coupez l’alimentation et assurez l’interdiction du courant avant toute

installation ou tâche d’entretien afin d’éviter d’entrer en contact avec des circuits

sous tension. Cela comprend tout travail sur des appareils connectés à des sorties

de relais et des systèmes d’entrée auxiliaires. Déconnectez l’alimentation externe

du modèle 5200A avant de connecter ou de déconnecter des composants et/

ou des appareils périphériques.

WARNING: A switch or circuit breaker shall be included in the building where

the 5200A is installed. The disconnecting device should be in close proximity to
