1. PRECAUTIONS AND SAFETY MEASURES
General
For your own safety and to avoid damage to the instrument we suggest you to follow the
procedures listed below:
NOTE: Before and during measurements be diligent to follow the instructions.
• Make sure that the electrical instrument is operating properly before use.
• Before attaching any of the conductors, make sure that the voltage present in the
conductor is in the range of the instrument.
• Keep the instruments in their carrying case when not in use.
• If the transmitter or receiver will not be used for a long time, remove the batteries to
prevent leakage in the instruments.
• Use Beha-Amprobe approved cables and accessories only.
Safety precautions
• In many instances, you will be working with dangerous level of voltage and/or current.
Therefore, it is important that you avoid direct contact with any uninsulated, current
carrying surfaces. Wear appropriate insulated gloves, face protection and protective
clothing in hazardous voltage areas.
• Do not measure voltage or current in wet or damp or dusty places.
• Do not measure in presence of gas, explosive materials or combustibles.
• Do not touch the circuit under test if no measurement is being taken.
• Do not touch exposed metal parts, unused terminals, circuits and so on.
• Do not use the instrument if it seems to be malfunctioning (i.e. if you notice
deformations, breaks, leakage of substances, and absence of messages on the display
and so on).
Safety information
The product complies with:
• UL/IEC/EN 61010-1, CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 61010-1, Pollution Degree 2, Measurement
CAT III 600 V MAX
• IEC/EN 61010-2-033
• IEC/EN 61010-2-032
