Performing an Alternative Equipment Leakage
Test
Note
The alternative equipment leakage test is
available when the EN62353 standard is
selected.
During the Alternative Equipment Leakage test, the
voltage source is applied between short-circuited
equipment outlet mains live, neutral, and equipment outlet
earth, the exposed conductive surface on the housing, and
all applied parts short-circuited together. Equipment is
separated from mains during the test. The current which
flows over the insulation of the DUT is measured.
This test is not applicable for equipment with internal
electrical power source. The switches in mains part shall
be closed during measurement.
To perform an alternative equipment leakage test:
1. Press
B
.
2. Press the softkey labeled Alternative Equipment.
3. Press
T
to apply the voltage and read the current
in the display.
Figure 24 shows the electrical connections between the
Analyzer and the DUT during an Alternative Equipment
Leakage Test.
The following outlet conditions apply when performing this
test:
•
Closed
Earth
•
Open
Earth
Note
If there are more than five applied parts to
connect to the Analyzer, see Using the 1210
Adapter later in this manual.
Performing an Alternative Applied Part Leakage
Test
Note
The Alternative applied part leakage test is
available when the EN62353 standard is
selected.
During the Alternative Applied Part Leakage test, the test
voltage is applied between short-circuited applied parts of
a single function and the short-circuited equipment outlet
mains live, neutral, equipment outlet earth, and exposed
conductive surface on the housing. This test should only
be done for equipment with F-Type applied parts. For
equipment with multiple applied parts, test each group of
applied parts of a single function in turn with all others
floating during the test
.
All applied parts can be connected
to the Analyzer’s applied parts jacks and the lead selection
will float those not selected.
