HF Leakage Current Test 3

The HF leakage test number three is an IEC earth-referenced, BF-type leakage
current test. You perform the test by connecting a 200-ohm resistive test load
from the ESU’s active electrode to earth/ground on the Analyzer. Then you
connect a second 200-ohm resistive load from the ESU’s neutral/dispersive
electrode to earth/ground on the Analyzer. The Analyzer then displays the high
frequency current leakage from the ESU you’re testing. See Figure 3-5 for a
diagram of this test at the end of this section.

Test Procedures

The procedures involved with this test include:

connecting the ESU you want to test to the Analyzer

selecting a 200-ohm test load resistance

measuring the ESU’s HF leakage current

ending the test

To connect the ESU to the Analyzer:

1. Connect the ESU Active electrode to the right gray jack aux HF leakage,

using one of the test leads from the set, Part # 1903307.

2. Connect the ESU Neutral/Dispersive electrode to yellow jack active, using

test lead Part # 2772171.

3. Connect a jumper between the right blue jack dispersive and the left green

jack ground earth reference, using test lead Part # 2772209.

4. Connect a jumper between the right green jack ground earth reference and

the left gray jack aux HF leakage, using test lead Part # 2772209.

5. If operating under battery power, attach a test lead from the set (Part #

1903307) from the battery ground on the side panel to the ground earth
reference.

To select a 200-ohm test load resistance setting:

1. Press the

OHMS SELECT

increase (+) or decrease (-) buttons as needed

until the test load value 200 appears in the display. After approximately
one second, the display returns to a blank screen. Below is an example of
a test load value as it appears in the display.
