Safety Precautions
The following are general safety precautions that are not necessarily related
to any specific part or procedure and do not necessarily appear elsewhere in
this publication. These precautions must be thoroughly understood and apply
to all phrases of operation and maintenance.
Keep Away From Live Circuits
Operating personnel must at all times observe normal safety regulations. Do
not replace components or make adjustments to the inside of the test equip-
ment with the high voltage supply turned on. To avoid casualties, always re-
move power.
Do Not Service Or Adjust Alone
Under no circumstances should any personnel reach into an enclosure for the
purpose of service or adjustments of equipment except in the presence of
someone who is capable of rendering aid.
Safety Earth Ground
An uninterruptible earth safety ground must be supplied from the main
power source to test instruments. Grounding one conductor of a two conduc-
tor power cable is not sufficient protection. Serious injury or death can occur
if this grounding is not properly supplied.
Shock Hazard
Do not attempt to remove the RF transmission line while RF power is pres-
ent. Radiated RF power is a potential health hazard.
Resuscitation
Personnel working with or near high voltages should be familiar with modern
methods of resuscitation.
