Printed in France. i800 English Instruction Sheet Page 2 Safety Instructions Please read this section carefully. It will make you familiar with the most important safety instructions for handling the Clamp. In this instruction sheet, a Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose hazard(s) to the user. A Caution identifies conditions and actions that may damage the Clamp or the test instruments. WX Warning The Clamp may only be used and handled by qualified personnel. To avoid electric shock or personal injury, follow these precautions: Do not use the Clamp if damaged. Always connect to display device before it is installed around the conductor. If the Clamp is not used as specified by the manual, protection provided by the Clamp may be impaired. Do not clamp around a conductor before connecting clamp output to the measuring equipment. Do not disconnect the output from the measuring equipment while the Clamp is still around a conductor. Connect the Clamp output to measuring equipment having safety receptacles. Do not use prior to consulting local and national safety codes and use of protective equipment is recommended. Do not hold the Clamp beyond the tactile barrier. Before each use, inspect the Clamp. Look for cracks or missing portions of the housing or output cable insulation. Also look for loose or weakened components. Pay particular attention to the insulation surrounding the jaws. Open and close the Clamp, noting detent action indicating TM proper mechanical operation of SIAC anti short circuit feature. Use caution when working with voltages above 60 V dc, 30 V ac rms or 42 V ac peak. Such voltages pose a shock hazard. Do not use Clamp in wet environments or in locations that hazardous gases exist.
