safety standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the product.
Agilent Technologies, Inc. assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to
comply with these requirements.
For additional safety precautions, including precautions for making device
measurements in a floating ground configuration, see “To ensure your
safety while using the system" on page 76.
WARNING This is a Safety Class 1 Product (provided with a protective earthing
ground incorporated in the mains supply cord). The mains plug shall
be inserted only in a socket outlet provided with a protective earth
contact. Any interruption of the protective conductor inside or
outside of the product is likely to make the product dangerous.
Intentional interruption is prohibited.
WARNING If this product is not used asspecified, the protection provided by the
equipment could beimpaired. This product must be used only in a
normal condition (in which all means for protection are intact) only.
WARNING DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE. Do not operate
the instrument in the presence of flammable gasesor flames.
WARNING DO NOT REMOVE THE INSTRUMENT COVER. Operating personnel
must not remove instrument covers. Component replacement and
internal adjustments must be made only by qualified service
personnel. Instruments that appear damaged or defective should be
made inoperative and secured against unintended operation until
they can be repaired by qualified service personnel.
WARNING Installing additional instruments may destabilize the rack cabinet.
WARNING Installing additional instruments into the cabinet electrical system
could produce excessive leakage current. If the protective earth
conductor is interrupted or faulted, the user risks serious injury or
death.
WARNING Prior to adding any additional instruments, review all wiring and
coolingcapabilitiestoverifyadequatedesignmarginsfornormaland
under single fault conditions.

Mains power
Ground the system
Before applying power
CAUTION The mains cable shall be permanently connected to the premise circuit
breaker or connected using an agency approved twist-lock connector.
WARNING To minimize shock hazard, the rack cabinet must be connected to an
electrical protective earth ground. The power distribution unit (PDU)
must be connected to the AC power mains through a groundedpower
cable, with the ground wire firmly connected to an electrical ground
(safety ground) at the power outlet.
WARNING Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor or
disconnection of the protective earth terminal will cause a potential
shock hazard that could result in personal injury.
CAUTION Verify that the product is set to match the available line voltage, the
correct fuse is installed, and all safety precautions are taken. Before
applying power, note the product’s external markings described in
Table A, “Safety Symbols,” on page 4 and Table B, “Instrument
Markings,” on page 5.
CAUTION It is recommended that the premise wiringcontain an adequate circuit
breaker for system protection.
CAUTION To remove power from the cabinet, remove the mains supply from the
premise electrical supply.
CAUTION Before switching on this system, make sure that the supply voltage is
in the specified range.

mains supply.However, themainssupplytothepowerdistributionunit
remainsenergized.
WARNING For continued protection against fire hazard, use only fuses with the
required rated current, voltage, and specified type (normal blow,
time delay). Do not use repaired fuses or short-circuited fuse
holders. Replace only with an identical fuse.
There are two resettable thermal breakers located on the power
strips. These are in the “hot” and “neutral” lines.
WARNING To preventelectrical shock, disconnect thesystem from mains before
cleaning. Use a dry (or slightly water-dampened) cloth to clean
external case parts. Do not attempt to clean internally.
CAUTION If the power outlet strip breaker trips once, reset the breaker. If the
breaker trips twice, call a qualified/licensed electrician to service the
test system.
