Multiple Loads
When connecting multiple loads to the power supply, each load should be connected
to the output terminals using separate connecting wires. This minimizes mutual
coupling effects between loads and takes full advantage of the low output impedance
of the power supply. Each pair of wires should be as short as possible and twisted or
bundled to reduce lead inductance and noise pick-up. If a shield is used, connect one
end to the power supply ground terminal and leave the other end disconnected.
If cabling considerations require the use of distribution terminals that are located
remotely from the power supply, connect output terminals to the distribution terminals
by a pair of twisted or shielded wires. Connect each load to the distribution terminals
separately.
