Safety & Warnings
Normal use of test equipment, such as the 100 MHz Dual-Trace Oscilloscope Model 2190B, exposes users to potential electrical shock hazards, especially when testing in environments with exposed high voltage. Even voltages as low as 35 volts can be dangerous and potentially lethal. To mitigate these risks, the following precautions are advised:
1. Avoid unnecessary exposure to high voltage in the equipment under test. Remove housings and covers only when necessary.
2. Turn off equipment when making test connections in high-voltage circuits and discharge high-voltage capacitors after removing power.
3. Familiarize yourself with the equipment being tested and the location of high voltage points, keeping in mind that high voltage can appear unexpectedly in defective equipment.
4. Use insulated floor materials or large, insulated floor mats and ensure work surfaces are not damp or wet.
5. Employ the “one hand in the pocket” technique when using an instrument probe to avoid creating a ground return path through the body.
6. Touch only the insulated portion of a probe and never the exposed tip.
7. Be aware that ac line voltage is usually present on some power input circuits whenever equipment is connected to an ac outlet, even if turned off.
8. For equipment with a two-wire ac power cord, treat it as “hot chassis” type unless confirmed otherwise. Use an isolation transformer for measurements on such equipment.
9. Never work alone; someone should be nearby to provide aid if necessary. Training in CPR and first aid is recommended.
