Setup Procedure: Ground Bond Tester
This procedure will describe connection of the HTT-1R to a ground bond tester. Because of the
varying types of tester outputs, only return banana to banana cable is provided with the HTT-1R
that can be used on a Ground bond tester. For custom cables, please contact Compliance West
USA.
If the ground bond tester has an output current above 15A, make sure the test time is not
higher than 3 seconds, to repeat another test wait for 10 seconds. Resistors inside may
overheat, this can cause permanent damage and miss readings.
1)
Connect the ground bond tester to the HTT-1R.
a)
On your ground bond tester, plug the return lead of the high current output to the black
return banana receptacle of the HTT-1R.
b)
On your ground bond tester, plug the high current output into the HTT-1R chassis green
banana receptacle.
2)
Conduct a simulated PASSING test by setting all three switches of the HTT-1R to the PASS
(green) setting and initiating a ground bond test by starting your ground bond tester.
a)
Your ground bond tester should indicate ‘PASS’.
3)
Conduct a simulated GROUND OPEN test by setting the GROUND switch on the HTT-1R
to ‘FAIL’. (All other switches on the HTT-1R should be set to ‘PASS’.) Begin testing by
starting your ground bond tester.
a)
Your ground bond tester should indicate ‘FAIL’, stop testing, and sound a buzzer or
otherwise warn the operator of a problem.
