Safety Considerations This power supply is a Safety Class I instrument, which means it has a protective earth terminal. This terminal must be connected to earth ground through a power source equipped with a 4-wire, ground receptacle. Refer to the "Safety Summary" page at the beginning of this manual for general safety information. Before operation or repair, check the power supply and review this manual for safety warnings and instructions. Safety warnings for specific procedures are located at

Programming The Tests Genera l Considerations Procedures are given for programming these tests either from the front panel keypad or from a GPIB controller. The procedures assume you know how to use the front panel keypad or how to program over the GPIB (see the Power Supply Operating Manual for more information). When using computer-controlled tests, you may have to consider the relatively slow (compared to computer and system voltmeters) settling times and slew rates of the power supply. Sui

Table 2-5. Constant Current (CC) Tests (continued) Action Normal Result CC Source Effect This test measures the change in output current resulting from a change in ac line voltage from its minimum to its maximum value within the line voltage specifications. It is recommended that you use averaged readings for Steps 6 and 8 of this test (see "Averaging AC Measurements" at the end of this chapter) . 1 Turn off the power supply and connect the ac power input through a variable-voltage transformer.
