4.3 Dielectric Strength (HIPOT) Testing

For dielectric strength (HIPOT) testing in the field, users must remove the metal jumper located on
terminal 2, 4, and 6 of the power supply terminal block. This metal jumper connects transient
suppression circuitry to chassis ground and must be removed in order to avoid damage to transient
suppression circuitry during HIPOT testing. Figure 11 shows the proper HIPOT test connections
and should be followed to avoid damage to the device.
