3. Test individual leads, selecting by the
LEAD
switch.
4. To apply the high voltage to the lead safely, press the
LIFT
GROUND/ISO TEST
switch to
ISO TEST
. The current is limited with a
120 k
Ω
resistor for user protection.
5. While
ISO TEST
is energized, read the isolation current in
microamperes.
6. Perform the test using the
OUTLET
switch in both
NORMAL
and
REVERSE
, the
NEUTRAL
switch
CLOSED
, and with the DUT
ON
and
OFF
.
Point-to-Point Measurements
The Analyzer provides the capability of making point-to-point leakage current,
isolation current, and resistance measurements between selected points,
otherwise known as a dual lead measurement.
Note
Additional optional accessory cables must be purchased to perform
these tests.
Leakage Current
Leakage Current between two points is also measured for permanently
installed equipment as additional verification of the integrity of the installation.
These measurements are equivalent, as the relationship between volts and
current across 1,000
Ω
is one mV per
μ
A.
