SAFETY CHECKLIST
Survey the test station. Make sure it is safe & orderly.
Always keep unqualifi ed/unauthorized personnel away from the test area.
Familiarize yourself with safety protocols in the event of a problem.
Exercise caution and never touch products or connections during a test.
Train operators. Never touch clips directly and always connect the return lead fi rst.
You should always know when a test is being performed.
WARNING: THIS GUIDE WAS CREATED FOR OPERATORS HAVING SOME FAMILIARITY WITH ELECTRICAL SAFETY
TESTING. AN ELECTRICAL SAFETY TESTER PRODUCES VOLTAGES AND CURRENTS THAT CAN CAUSE HARMFUL
OR FATAL ELECTRIC SHOCK. TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL INJURY OR DEATH, THESE SAFETY PROCEDURES MUST
BE STRICTLY OBSERVED WHEN HANDLING AND USING A TEST INSTRUMENT. CONTACT US AT
[e-mail] FOR MORE INFO ON HOW TO GET TRAINED ON ELECTRICAL SAFETY TESTING.

TEST CONNECTION
Adapter Box Connections
To increase operator safety, you may elect to use an adapter box for products
terminating in either a two-prong or three-prong line cord.
Connect the black ground return lead (P/N 2100A-13) to the front panel
Return terminal and connect the other end of the lead to the dead metal
on the chassis of the DUT (Device Under Test). Check to ensure a solid
connection is made between the DUT and the return clip.
Plug the black lead from the adapter box (P/N 36544) into the CONT.
CHECK terminal located on the front panel.
Plug the white lead from the adapter box into the High Voltage terminal
located on the front panel.
Plug the line cord of the DUT into the adapter box receptacle.
