Symbols used in this manual

Important instructions concerning the protection of staff and equipment as well as technical safety within this document are labeled with one of the following symbols:

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury or material



damage.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.



Notes have important information and useful tips on the operation of your equipment. Non-observance may result in incorrect measurement results.

Safety Precautions

This manual contains basic advice for the installation and operation of Amprobe Underground cable locator and accessories. The manufacturer is not liable for damage to material or humans due to non-observance of the instructions and safety advice provided in this manual. Therefore, this manual should be provided and reviewed by all personnel associated with the cable locating equipment.

Safety Practices

Familiarize yourself with all required safety practices of the local utility company, or other owner of the plant before entering an access area, or connecting an Amprobe transmitter. Ensure that the line is de-energized and out of service, before connecting the transmitter directly to any conductor. NEVER make a direct connection to a live power cable. Follow the appropriate safety procedures to avoid the risk of injury if using a clamp on energized electrical or control lines. Pay special attention when using a locator in high trafﬁc areas.

Intended Application

Safe operation is only realized when using the equipment for its intended purpose. Using the equipment for other purposes may lead to human danger and equipment damage.

The limits described under the technical data section may not be exceeded.

Malfunction Behavior

The equipment may only be used when working properly. When irregularities or malfunctions appear that cannot be solved consulting this manual, the equipment must immediately be put out of operation and marked as not functional. Amprobe must be contacted for technical support and/or service. The instrument may only be operated when the malfunction is resolved.

Dangers when operating with HV:

Special safety attention is needed when operating HV facilities, especially non-stationary equipment. The regulations VDE 0104 about setting up and operation of electric test equipment, i.e. the corresponding EN 50191 as well as country-speciﬁc regulations and standards must be observed.

Safety installations may not be by-passed nor deactivated. Operation requires a minimum two people whereas the second person must be able to activate the emergency switch in case of

danger. To avoid hazardous electric charges of metallic parts in the vicinity, all metallic parts must be grounded. To avoid drawing dangerous arcs, switching should only be done in a de-energized condition.

The equipment and all accessories must be connected according to applicable standards VDE, EN or DIN as well as countryspeciﬁc regulations.
