5 H.F. Leakage Test Element

5.1 Introduction

This test checks to see whether all electrodes on an ESU have leakage currents within acceptable limits over a
range of power and load settings.

To complete this test measurements are taken, one for each electrode, each with a different set-up. These set-ups
will depend on whether the ESU is grounded or isolated (see reference 1 for details). All H.F. leakage current
measurements within the Ansur test element will be taken for one electrode prior to being run on the next.

The user must define a power value with a dedicated load and with a dedicated mode for every leakage
measurement to be made. This is achieved through the custom setup dialog.

The user must also define the acceptable leakage range for each electrode type, facilitated on the expected
results
dialog.

If one measurement fails to meet these limits then the test will fail.
