Shock hazard caused by high voltages
To avoid electrical shock and personal injury, and to prevent damage to the
instrument or any other products connected to it, observe the following:
● Do not apply input voltages above the rating of the instrument and the
accessories.
● Use only probes, test leads, and adapters that comply with the mea-
surement category (CAT) of your measurement task.
● Test leads and measurement accessories used for multimeter measure-
ments on a live mains circuit must be rated for CAT III or CAT IV
according to IEC 61010-031. The voltage of the measured circuit must
not exceed the rated voltage value.
Maximum input voltage:
● At BNC inputs: CAT IV 300 V
● With probe R&S RT-ZI10 or R&S RT-ZI11: CAT IV 600 V,
CAT III 1000 V
● Meter input: CAT IV 600 V; CAT III 1000 V
Voltage ratings: V RMS (50 to 60 Hz) for AC sine wave and V DC for DC
applications.
Risk of electrical shock or fire
Voltages higher than 30 V RMS or 42 V peak or 60 V DC are regarded as
hazardous contact voltages. When working with hazardous contact vol-
tages, use appropriate protective measures to preclude direct contact with
the measurement setup:
● Use only insulated voltage probes, test leads and adapters.
● Do not touch voltages higher than 30 V RMS or 42 V peak or 60 V DC.
