Safety Measures

The AMPROBE VP-700 has been constructed and verified
in compliance with the safety measures for voltage
testers and has left the factory in safe and perfect condi-
tion. In order to maintain this condition, the user must
follow the safety instructions in this manual.
Danger of electrical shock
• In order to avoid electrical shock, the valid safety and
VDE regulations regarding excessive contact voltages
must receive utmost attention, when working with
voltages exceeding 120V (60V) DC or 50V (25V)rms AC.
The values in brackets are valid for spezial ranges (for
example medicine and agriculture).
• Prior to each test, ensure the proper condition of the
test leads and the measuring instrument, e.g. broken
cables or leaked batteries (if applicable).
• The instrument and the accessory must only be touched
at the defined hand-held area. Touching the test
probes must be avoided under all circumstances.
• This instrument may only be used within the ranges
specified (refer to technical data) and within voltage
systems up to 690V
• The measuring instrument may be used only in the
measurement category it has been designed for!
• Prior to usage ensure perfect instrument function (e.g.
on known voltage source).
• The voltage testers may no longer be used if one or sev-
eral functions fail or if no functionalityis indicated.
• Do not measure under damp conditions or outside.
