Figure 259 - SCR gate-to-cathode test

The resistance value from gate-to-cathode should be between 10 Ω to 20 Ω. A
value close to 0 Ω indicates that there is an internal short in the SCR. An
extremely high value indicates that the gate connection in the device has broken.

If a Gate-to-Cathode test reveals a damaged SCR, refer to

Component

Definition and Maintenance on page 23

for the SCR replacement procedure.
