How do I safely use measurement leads with high voltages?

Do not use low voltage spade-terminated leads to connect to hazardous voltage greater than 32V ac rms or 42V peak. A General Purpose Probe Kit is provided with the Multimeter for safe measurement at higher voltages, and you should keep fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.
