8 Safety

When found on the product, the following symbols specify:

Warning: Electrical Warning: Consult

Shock Hazard. user documentation.

This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D or Non-hazardous locations only

WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD – Substitution of components may impair suitability for Class I, Division 2.
AVERTISSEMENT - RISQUE D'EXPLOSION - LA SUBSTITUTION DE COMPOSANTS PEUT RENDRE CE MATERIAL INACCEPTABLE POUR LES EMPLACEMENTS DE
CLASSE 1, DIVISION 2.

WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD – Do not disconnect equipment unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous.
AVERTISSEMENT - RISQUE D'EXPLOSION - AVANT DE DECONNECTOR L'EQUIPMENT, COUPER LE COURANT OU S'ASSURER QUE L'EMPLACEMENT EST DESIGNE
NON DANGEREUX.

WARNING: To avoid the risk of electric shock or burns, always connect the safety (or earth) ground before making any other connections.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or physical injury it is strongly recommended to fuse the voltage measurement inputs. Be sure to locate fuses as close to the
source as possible.

WARNING: Replace fuse with the same type and rating to provide protection against risk of fire and shock hazards.

WARNING: In the event of repeated failure, do not replace the fuse again as a repeated failure indicates a defective condition that will not clear by replacing the fuse.

WARNING: Only qualified electrical personnel familiar with the construction and operation of this equipment and the hazards involved should install, adjust, operate, or service this
equipment. Read and understand this manual and other applicable manuals in their entirety before proceeding. Failure to observe this precaution could result in severe bodily injury
or loss of life.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

• All applicable codes and standards need to be followed in the installation of this product.
• Adhere to the following safety precautions whenever any type of connection is made to the module:
• Connect the safety (earth) ground on the power connector first before making any other connections.
• When connecting to electric circuits or pulse-initiating equipment, open their related breakers.
• Do not make connections to live power lines.
• Make connections to the module first; then connect to the circuit to be monitored.
• Route power wires in a safe manner in accordance with good practice and local codes.
• Wear proper personal protective equipment including safety glasses and insulated gloves when making connections to power circuits.
• Ensure hands, shoes, and floor are dry before making any connection to a power line.
• Make sure the unit is turned OFF before making connection to terminals.
• Make sure all circuits are de-energized before making connections.
• Before each use, inspect all cables for breaks or cracks in the insulation. Replace immediately if defective.
• Use Copper Conductors in Field Wiring Only, 60/75° C
