PE14
Please read this manual carefully and thoroughly before using this product.
INTRODUCTION
The PE14 is a unique, electrically insulated, far-focus camera-tipped probe that gives the DCS400 system it is attached to an ETL safety rating of CAT III 1000V, CAT IV 600V.
400 Series (DCS400, DCS400-05 or DCS400-09)
Although the PE14 probe is also compatible with the handle of Seeker 300, 200 and 100 (DCS300, DCS200 and DCS100) systems, attaching it to those systems does NOT upgrade their safety ratings. General does not advise and bears no responsibility for use of the PE14 probe with any system other than the DCS400.
Working in concert with a DCS400, the PE14 makes it safe to inspect two kinds of environments:
1. Any area or enclosure where you would expect to find electrical wiring. Examples include junction and distribution boxes, circuit breaker panels, electrical cabinets, equipment chassis and enclosures, and motor control centers. Whether the wiring is exposed or hidden, it represents a potential hazard hazard to anyone operating a video camera scope with a conventional probe with a metal exterior.
2. Any area or enclosure where you would not expect to find electrical wiring, but exposed wiring nevertheless may be present. Examples include attics, crawl spaces, rafters, ducts and basements of houses—in short, any area that is too inaccessible, confined or dark to be visible to the naked eye.

WARNING
Such areas may contain electrical hazards created by age (worn insulation, e.g.) or structural modifications.
The PE14 makes it possible to inspect electrically hazardous areas (as well as safe areas) using the capabilities and features of a Seeker 400 Series system. The probe has many applications in the automotive/boat/aircraft repair, plumbing, construction, restoration and HVAC/R industries.
