Workplace Precautions 

 

Background 

The GPT-9600 Series are a high voltage 
instruments that output dangerous voltages. 
The following section describes precautions and 
procedures that must be followed to ensure a 
safe work environment. 

 WARNING 

The GPT-96XX generates voltages in excess of 
5kVAC or 6kVDC. Follow all safety precautions, 
warnings and directions given in the following 
section when using the instrument. 

 

1.  Only technically qualified personnel should be 

allowed to operate the safety tester. 

 

2.  The operating workplace must be fully isolated, 

especially when the instrument is in operation. 
The instrument should be clearly labeled with 
appropriate warning signage. 

 

3.  The operator should not wear any conductive 

materials, jewelry, badges, or other items, such 
wrist watches.   

 

4.  The operator should wear insulation gloves for 

high voltage protection. 

 

5.  Ensure the earth ground of the line voltage is 

properly grounded. 

 

6.  Ensure any devices that are adversely affected 

by magnetic fields are not placed near the 
tester.
