2.6 Cautions and Warnings

If the ADS131M08MET-EVM is connected to AC Mains, there is a risk of exposure to high voltages. The use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as rubber insulating gloves, electrical hazard rated footwear and goggles is recommended when performing energized testing. TI recommends using the EVM in a protective safety enclosure that disables high-voltage potential when the enclosure is opened.

WARNING: ADS131M08MET Hot Surface! Contact can cause burns. Do not touch. Take the proper precautions when operating.
CAUTION: ADS131M08MET High Voltage! Electric shocks are possible when connecting the board to live wires. The board must be handled with care by a professional. For safety, use of isolated test equipment with overvoltage or overcurrent protection is highly recommended.
