They are easy to use. You just dial in the discharge voltage and
whether it's an air discharge or contact discharge, point the tip at
your unit under test and pull the trigger. The units also come with a
manual that has a tutorial and setup procedures for running the various
IEC, et. al. tests.

I haven't used any of the newest models recently but they look like
they may be even easier to use than the models I've used in the past.

You'll find out some interesting things about your units, guaranteed...
