accept a standard electrical conduit fitting or strain relief (supplied). An

internally-mounted terminal strip provides the input connection point. When

connecting the conduit, disconnect the power cord from the terminal strip and

The safety ground isolation choke selector switch switches the 1.6 mH earth line

choke IN and OUT of the safety ground circuit. The ground choke is designed

and manufactured with sufficient capacity to conduct the maximum current rating

of the Model 3816/2 and at no time is the safety ground of the unit compromised.

The earth line choke avoids a double RF ground connection (safety ground and

measurement ground) in the conducted emissions test setup.
