Recommendations
Recording jar information
Because conductance values vary with such factors as age, temperature, and site conditions, record
the following information about the jars you are testing each time you test:
• Power load
• Physical condition of the jars
• Site condition
• Jar rating
For convenience, print the results for each test, make notes, and tape the printout to one of the jars.
Labels for jars and straps
To make sure the test results correlate to the same jar or strap each time you test, you should identify
the jars and straps at the site with a label to make sure the labels the analyzer uses are the same. For
information about how the analyzer labels jars and straps, refer to “Labeling jars and straps.”
Preparing to test
Introduction
To prepare for testing, you need to
• Select a cable
• Attach the cable to the analyzer
Requirements
To do these procedures, you need
• Flat-tip screwdriver
• Clamp or probe cables
Selecting a cable
You can use the probe cables (or optional clamp cable) for testing at a site.
To choose a cable:
1. Determine the type of testing you are doing:
• One or a few jars
• Jars and straps in a site
