Safety Earth Ground
An uninterruptible earth safety ground must be sup-
plied 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 sup-
plied.
Resuscitation
Personnel working with or near high voltages should 
be familiar with modern methods of resuscitation.
