Test 2-2: DC Isolation Test

This test verifies that sufficient DC isolation exists between various points
on the switch module. The DMM used should be capable of measuring up to
at least 1 G

. If the DMM indicates an overload, record the reading as

">R

max

", where R

max

is the highest resistance that the DMM can measure.

If the DMM is a 3458A, for example, the reading should be written as ">1.2
G

".

Normally Open to

Common

1. Hardware Connections

2. Equipment Setup

Set DMM to: 2-wire ohms, 1 G

range.

Send

*RST

to the switch to open all NO contacts.

3. DC Isolation Reading

Trigger the DMM and record the reading.
