DANGE
R
Always connect the voltage cable to the secondary
side of a breaker. On the secondary side of a
breaker, even if the lines are shorted the breaker
can trip and prevent an accident. On the primary
side, however, the current capacity may be large,
and in the event of a short-circuit there may be a
serious accident.
This unit cannot be used on voltage lines of 500
Vrms. If the voltage exceeds 500 VAC, there will be
a short-circuit accident or an electrocution accident
.
WARNIN
G
Be sure to connect the voltage input terminals and
current input terminals correctly. Measurement
which is attempted with the wiring connected
incorrectly may cause damage to the unit or a
short-circuit.
To prevent an electric shock and a short-circuit
accidents, shut off the power to the line to be
measured before connecting the load to the
terminals.
To avoid electric shock when replacing the fuse,
turn the power switch off, disconnect the power
code from the connector, and remove the input
cable from the object to be measured.
M0.5 A/250 V 20 mm×5.2 mm dia.

otes on Use
In order to ensure safe operation and to obtain maximum
performance from the unit, observe the cautions listed
below.

Notes on Use
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
WARNIN
G
Only use fuses of the specified type that is rated for
the specified current and voltage. Using a fuse that
does not meet the specifications or shorting the fuse
holder may cause an accident that might result in
injury or death.
CAUTIO
N
･Do not store or use the unit where it will be exposed to
direct sunlight, high temperatures, high humidity, or
condensation. If exposed to such conditions, the unit
may be damaged, the insulation may deteriorate, and
the unit may no longer satisfy its specifications.
･To avoid electric shock, the wiring which is used for
making the connections to the current input terminals
should have sufficient current carrying capacity and
insulation.
･To avoid damage to the unit, do not short the analog
output terminal and the GP-IB connector terminal and
do not input voltage to them.
･To avoid damage to the unit, do not subject the
equipment to vibrations or shocks during transport or
handling. Be especially careful to avoid dropping the
equipment.
･Before using the unit, make sure that the sheathing on
the leads is not damaged and that no bare wire is
exposed. If there is damage, using the unit could
cause electric shock.

Notes on Use
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
NOTE ･Accurate measurement may be impossible in locations
subject to strong external magnetic fields, such as
transformers and high-current conductors, or in locations
subject to strong external electric fields, such as radio
transmission equipment.
･When a measuring device such as a recorder or voltmeter
is connected to the analog output terminals, there is a
possibility of oscillatioin due to the input capacitance of
the measuring device.
If such oscillation occurs, insert a resistor (100 ohms or
thereabouts) in series between the analog output
terminals and the measuring device.
