If the power lead supplied is not suitable for your type of mains outlet, do
not use an adaptor. Always use a power lead fitted with the correct plug.
NB
: A plug severed from the power lead is a hazard if plugged into a live
socket. Severed plugs must be destroyed immediately.
The instrument is fitted with a two-pin IEC60320 power inlet. Most power
leads are made with three-core cable so the ground connection will not
be used.

If using a fused plug ensure it is fitted with a 3 Amp fuse.
The instrument can be powered from 95 - 240 V rms, ±10% 50/60Hz.
With power connected the battery will charge as long as a test is not in
progress. The
Power On/Off
button has a green LED which illuminates
when mains power is present.
For best battery lifetime, charge the battery after each use. A completely
exhausted battery will take 14 hours to recharge.
