This is NOT a typical DC output volt-
age waveform. One output diode is
not functioning. Note the increased
ripple content. One diode was discon-
nected to simulate an open or non-
functioning output diode. Each vertical
division represents 20 volts and each
horizontal division represents 5 mil-
liseconds in time. The machine was
loaded with a resistance grid bank.
Note: Scope probes connected at
machine output terminals: (+)
probe to electrode, (-) probe to
work.
