4.0 Installation and Application
Before connecting any components, follow the
safety information in the ETS-Lindgren
Product Information Bulletin included with your
shipment.
The Model 3816/2 is provided with resistors to
help bleed off high voltage transients, but it is
advisable to connect the input and output
connectors to their proper power lines and
loads before connecting the monitor port to the
measurement instrumentation; otherwise,
power surges or transients can damage the test
instrumentation mixers or attenuators.
The Model 3816/2 Line Impedance Stabilization Network (LISN) is nominally
designed for a 15-ampere current capacity, this rating may be increased to
16 amperes provided that the input and output connections are configured for
these currents.
 Maximum line-to-line voltage must not exceed the 460 volts AC RMS.
 Maximum line-to-ground voltage must not exceed 250 volts AC RMS.
The safety ground should be connected first
and disconnected last on the input side of the
unit.
An RF ground stud is provided on the front panel and rear panel for
bonding to the ground plane.
