External Case Leakage
See Figure 4-2, Case External Leakage.
1.
Plug the EUT (equipment under test) into the test receptacle.
2.
Connect the dual banana-plug end of a Kelvin cable to the two
red external meter posts.
3.
Connect the alligator-clip end of the Kelvin cable to a grounded
point on the case of the equipment under test.

Select the desired condition:
•
GROUND—closed or open,
•
POLARITY—normal or reversed,
•
NEUTRAL—open or closed.

External leakage current is the current that flows from the case of
the equipment under test to earth ground. The current flowing
from the case directly to ground through an external path is
measured.
