Fuse Testing
The calibrator employs fuses to protect the outputs and inputs in the
event the calibrator is improperly connected to external circuitry. It is
necessary to remove the covers in order to access the fuse panel. The
following tests should be performed BEFORE removing the covers to
determine if a fuse is actually blown.

mA Input
Connect an ohmmeter across the
input milliamps terminals. The
resistance should be approximately
5 ohms. If it reads open, the fuse is
probably blown. If it reads
significantly higher than 5 ohms, the
input dropping resistor may have
been damaged due to an overload.
