All Primary and Secondarycircuits can, at times, produce lethal voltages and currents. Avoid contact with any current-carryingsurfaces.Do not use the meter for primary protection or in an energy-limiting capacity. The meter can only be•used as secondary protection. Do not use the meter for applications where failure of the meter maycause harm or death. Do not use the meter for any application where there may be a risk of fire.All meter terminals should be inaccessible after installation.•Do not apply more than the maximum voltage the meter or any attached device can withstand.
