Safety

Isolation Voltages

Port-to-port ground
Withstand	500 V_rms verified by a 5 s dielectric withstand test
Continuous	60 VDC, Measurement Category I

Port-to-earth ground
Withstand	500 V_rms verified by a 5 s dielectric withstand test
Continuous	60 VDC, Measurement Category I

Note This isolation is intended to prevent ground loops.

Measurement Category I is for measurement performed on circuits not directly connected to the electrical distribution system referred to as MAINS voltage. MAINS is a hazardous live electrical supply system that powers equipment. This category is for measurements of voltages from specially protected secondary circuits. Such voltage measurements include signal levels, special equipment, limited-energy parts of equipment, circuits powered by regulated low-voltage sources, and electronics.

Caution Do not connect the PXI-8517 to signals or use for measurements within Measurement Categories II, III, or IV.

Attention Ne connectez pas le PXI-8517 à des signaux et ne l'utilisez pas pour effectuer des mesures dans les catégories de mesure II, III ou IV.

Note Measurement Categories CAT I and CAT O (Other) are equivalent. These test and measurement circuits are not intended for direct connection to the MAINs building installations of Measurement Categories CAT II, CAT III, and CAT IV.
