2�2 Work Safety
DANGER
Electric Shock Hazard
Never assume that equipment is safe to handle without using the necessary
safety equipment and earthing procedures.
• All procedures must comply with local safety regulations.
• Always treat exposed connectors and conductors as potential electric
shock hazards.
• Device under Test (DUT) must be earthed, de-energized and isolated
from all power sources.
• All auxiliary electrical apparatus such as switchgear, surge arresters
etc. must be isolated from the test power source and the DUT.
• All cables and connectors must be inspected for damage before use.
Damaged equipment must not be used.
• Earthconnectionsmustbemaderstandremovedlast.
• DUT must be discharged and earthed before disconnecting the test
lead.
• Avoid testing alone. In the event of an emergency, another person’s
presence may be essential.
