    Safety Voltages

    Connect only voltages that are within these limits.

    V terminal to C terminal

    30 V maximum, Measurement Category I

    Measurement Category I is for measurements performed on circuits not directly connected to the electrical distribution system referred to as MAINS voltage. MAINS is a hazardous live electrical supply system that powers equipment. This category is for measurements of voltages from specially protected secondary circuits. Such voltage measurements include signal levels, special equipment, limited-energy parts of equipment, circuits powered by regulated low-voltage sources, and electronics.

    spd-note-caution
    Caution  

    Do not connect the system to signals or use for measurements within Measurement Categories II, III, or IV.

    spd-note-note
    Note  

    Measurement Categories CAT I and CAT O (Other) are equivalent. These test and measurement circuits are not intended for direct connection to the MAINs building installations of Measurement Categories CAT II, CAT III, or CAT IV.
