Precautionary Measures to be taken while Wiring the Circuit: Turn OFF the power to the circuit, when wiring the circuit. Connecting or removing measurement cables while the power is turned ON is dangerous. Take special caution not to wire a current measurement circuit to the voltage input terminal or vice-versa. Strip the insulation cover of the measurement cable so that when it is wired to the input terminal, the conductive parts (bare wires) do not protrude from the terminal.
