12.  Turn the Voltage Adjust on the rear panel clockwise until the output on the DMM equals 

500  volts  AC  and  press  the  Test  button.    The  display  will  now  display  "V2"  again.    The 
voltage is now be calibrated. 

13.  Turn Off the HT-3000P-1A-AC tester. 
14.  The voltage can be verified by turning on the HT-3000P-1A-AC, running a test, and using 

the  1000:1  voltage  probe  to  check  the  meter  at  different  voltages.    If the voltages are not 
/- 2% +/- 1 count at each voltage, the voltage calibration must be performed again 
starting at step 1 above. 

 

Current Calibration Adjustment 

 
1. 

You must be in Calibration Mode as in step 3 under the Voltage Calibration Adjustment 
above. 

2. 

Turn the Voltage Adjust on the rear panel to minimum (counterclockwise).  

3. 

Connect the output of the HT-3000P-1A-AC through a 3K ohm, 3600 watt high voltage 
resistor in series with a calibrated DMM capable of measuring 1A AC and returning to the 
Return jack on the front panel of the HT-3000P-1A-AC. 

4. 

In the calibration mode, hit the Reset button until "L1" is displayed on the front panel. 

5. 

Once "L1" is displayed, press the Test button once and .80 will be displayed. 

6. 

Slowly increase the variac watching the current flowing on the DMM.  Adjust the variac 
until 0.80 A AC is displayed on the DMM and then press the Test button. 

7. 

The display will show "hold". 

8. 

Wait until the display returns to "L1". 

9. 

Press Reset button and meter will display “L2”. Press the Test button once and .10 will be 
displayed. 

10. 

Slowly increase the variac watching the current flowing on the DMM, Adjust the variac 
until 0.10 A AC is displayed on the DMM and then press the Test button. 

11. 

The display will show “hold”. 

12. 

Wait until the display returns to “L2”. At this point the leakage current is calibrated. 

13.  The current can be verified by turning on the HT-3000P-1A-AC, running a test, and using 

DMM in series with the load measuring current at different current levels.  If the current is 
not /-  2%  +/- 1 count, the current calibration must be performed again starting at 
step 1 above.
