This power supply is a Safety Class 1 instrument, which means it has
a protective earth terminal. That terminal must be connected to
earth ground through power source equipped with a ground

Environment
WARNING
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gasses or fumes
The environmental conditions, dimensions of the instrument, as well
as an outline diagram are given in Appendix A. Basically, the
instrument should only be operated indoors in a controlled
environment. Do not operate the power supply in an area where the
ambient temperature exceeds 40° C.
NOTE
Agilent N5700 power supplies generate magnetic fields, which may affect the
operation of other instruments. If your equipment is susceptible to magnetic
fields, do not position it adjacent to the power supply.
Airflow
Fans cool the power supply by drawing air through the front and
exhausting it out the back. The instrument must be installed in a
location that allows sufficient space of at least 10 cm (4 in) at the
front and back of the unit for adequate air circulation.
