Warranty
Warranty malfunctions occurring under conditions of normal use in conformity with the Instruction Manual and Product Precautionary Markings will be repaired free of charge. This warranty is valid for a period of three (3) years from the date of purchase. Please contact the distributor from which you purchased the product for further information on warranty provisions.
Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Hioki P9000-01, P9000-02 Differential Probe. Preserve this manual carefully and keep it handy to make full use of this product for along time.
Overview
The product is a differential probe that is connected to a Memory HiCorder input unit. The probe divides two high voltages input to its high and low terminals by 100 or 1000 and then outputs the difference as a signal relative to ground. The P9000-02 includes AC RMS value output functionality. Power can be supplied via the optional AC adapter or a commercially available USB cable.
Verifying Package Contents
When you open the package, carefully inspect the product to ensure that everything is in good condition, and that no damage occurred during shipping. Carefully check the accessories and connectors. If the product seems to have been damaged or does not work as specified, contact your authorized Hioki distributor or reseller.

Measurement categories
To ensure safe operation of measuring instruments, IEC 61010 establishes safety standards for various electrical environments, categorized as CAT II to CAT IV, and called measurement categories.
WARNING
· Using a measuring product in an environment designated with a higher- numbered category than that for which the product is rated could result in a severe accident, and must be carefully avoided.
· Never use a measuring product that lacks category labeling in a CAT II to CAT IV measurement environment. Doing so could result in a serious accident.

This product conforms to the safety requirements for CAT III 1000 V, CAT IV 600 V measuring instruments.

CAT II: CAT III: CAT IV:

When directly measuring the electrical outlet receptacles of the primary electrical circuits in equipment connected to an AC electrical outlet by a power cord (portable tools, household appliances, etc.) When measuring the primary electrical circuits of heavy equipment (fixed installations) connected directly to the distribution panel, and feeders from the distribution panel to outlets When measuring the circuit from the service drop to the service entrance, and to the power meter and primary overcurrent protection device (distribution panel)

Usage Notes
Observe the following precautionary information to ensure that the product can be used safely and in a manner that allows it to perform as described in its specifications.
WARNING
To prevent an electric shock, confirm that the white or red portion (insulation layer) inside the cable is not exposed. If a color inside the cable is exposed, do not use the cable.
WARNING
Do not allow the product to get wet, and do not take measurements with wet hands. This may cause an electric shock.
CAUTION
· To avoid damage to the product, avoid subjecting it to vibration or mechanical shock during transportation and handling. Exercise particular care to avoid subjecting the product to mechanical shock, for example by dropping.
· Do not store or use the product where it could be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperatures or humidity, or condensation. Under such conditions, the product may be damaged and insulation may deteriorate so that it no longer meets specifications.
· This product is not designed to be entirely waterproof or dustproof. Do not use it in an especially dusty environment, nor where it might be splashed with liquid. This may cause damage.
