    Safety precautions should be followed when working in an electronics laboratory. Keep work areas clean and free of loose objects to prevent shorts. Always wear safety glasses when working with circuits. Check circuit connections carefully before applying power to avoid electrical shocks or equipment damage. Gradually increase voltages when powering up and gradually decrease when powering down to discharge components safely. Switch off power before modifying circuits.

    Safety Precautions of

    Electronics Laboratory

    General
    1
    Precautions

    Keep the table clean.

    Do not put any object on table or nearby circuits.

    Always use safety glasses when testingthe circuits.

    No loose wires or metal pieces should be lying on table or near the circuit as they
    cause short circuits and sparking.

    Avoid usinglong wires, that mayget in your way whilemaking adjustments or


    changingleads.

    Keep the conducting parts and connections out of the way from accidental
    touching and from any contacts to test equipment or any parts, connectedto other
    voltage levels.

    When working with inductive circuits, reduce voltages or currents to near zero
    before switching open the circuits.

    Be careful about dangling objects like bracelets, rings, and metal watch bands.
    They conduct electricity and can cause burns. Do not wear them during laboratory
    sessions.

    When working with energized circuits, use only one hand while keeping the rest of
    your body away from conducting surfaces.
    Before Powering the
    2
    Circuit

    Before powering the circuits, check for all the connections of the circuit and
    scope connection. This avoids shorting or any ground looping that may lead
    to electrical shocks or damage of equipment.

    Check any connections for shorting two different voltage levels.

    Check if you have connected load at the output.

    Double check your wiring and circuit connections (use a point-to-point wiring
    diagram to review when makingthese checks).

    Check the circuit with the TA.


    3 While Powering Up
    the Circuit

    First apply low voltages to check properfunctionality of circuits.


    Once functionality is ok, increasevoltages to the required levels.

    4
    While Powering
    Down the Circuit

    Reduce the voltage or power slowly till it comesto zero.


    Switch of allthe power supplies.
    Let the load be connected at the output for some time, so that
    it helps to discharge capacitor or inductor if any, completely.

    5
    Patents While
    Modifyingthe Circuit

    Switch off the circuit.


    Modify the connections based on the requirement.
    Recheck the circuit with the TA and power up.
