This voltage is extremely dangerous and may cause death or severe injury if you come in
contact with it.
WARNING
After disconnecting the utility power, wait at least 5 minutes before doing any work on the filter
connections. After removing power, allow at least five minutes to elapse and verify that the
capacitors have discharged to a safe level before contacting internal components. Connect a
DC voltmeter across the capacitor terminals 1, 2 and 3 on terminal block 1TB. Start with the
meter on the highest scale and progressively switch to a lower scale as the indicated voltage
falls below the maximum value of the scale used.
