Fuse Replacement 

 
There  is  a  user-replaceable  fuse  (F1)  located  on  the  rear  panel  of  the  instrument.    It  is  located 

behind  a  door  in  the  Inlet-Power  Switch-Fuse  Holder  device.   The  fuse  rating  is  noted  on  the  rear  panel.  
Do not attempt to replace it with a fuse of any other rating. 

 
Use the following procedure to replace the fuse F1: 
1.  Turn the power switch to the O or OFF position. 
2.  Unplug the instrument from the source of supply. 
3.  Remove the power inlet cord from the instrument. 
4.  Using a small screwdriver, pry open the fuse holder door. 
5.  Replace the fuse with a new one of the correct rating. 
6.  Replace the fuse holder door and power inlet cord. 
 

Initial Checkout Procedure 

 

The following procedure will verify that the HT-S is working correctly.  We recommend that this 

procedure be conducted periodically to ensure proper operation of the tester.  (A Compliance West HTT-1 
or HTT-1R function tester may also be used to verify the HT-S is working correctly). 

 
The following items are needed to conduct this procedure: 
 

 

- An 18 AWG GL test lead (Alligator Clip/Banana Plug ends, black). 
- Ground continuity connector clip. 
- A piece of none insulated jumper wire (Not supplied) 
 

CAUTION 

 

High voltage (up to 2000 Volts AC and 2800 Volts DC or up to 3000 Volts AC and 4200 Volts 

DC for HT-4200S) generated by the HT-S is exposed during this test.  A risk of shock exists.  Exercise care 
when using the HT-S. 

 

High Voltage Performance Test 

 
1. 

Disconnect all leads of the HT-S front panel. 

2. 

Turn the 

Ground Check

 switch on the rear panel to the Off position. 

3. 

Push the red 

RESET

 button.  Verify the yellow 

TEST

 indicator is lit. 

4. 

Push the yellow 

TEST

 button. 

5. 

The Tester should conduct a test sequence.  Confirm on the front meter that the HT-S can reach the 
High voltage. At the end of the test, the 

Ground OK

Ground Open

Full Voltage

Hipot Pass

, and 

red 

RESET

 LED’s should be lit. 

 

Ground Continuity Performance Test 

 
1. 

Disconnect all leads of the HT-S front panel. 

2. 

Turn the 

Ground Check

 switch on the rear panel to the On position. 

3. 

Push the red 

RESET

 button, then the yellow 

TEST

 button.   

4. 

The tester should sound the buzzer.  The red 

Ground Open

 and red 

RESET

 LED’s should be lit. 

5. 

Connect  the  supplied  Ground  Continuity  Connector  Tip  into  the  bottom  round  slot  of  the  orange 
receptacle  located  on  the  front  panel  or  the  GL  Return  Test  Lead  to  the  Ground  Check  receptacle 
(HT-4200S only).  

6. 

Plug  the  supplied  18  AWG  GL  Test  Lead  (Alligator  Clip/Banana  Plug  ends,  black)  into  the 

RETURN

  receptacle  on  the  front  panel,  then,  connect  the  green  alligator  clip  end  to  the  Ground 

Continuity Connector Tip previously connected on step 5.
