Operating Instructions 

 

Theory of Operation 

 
  The  HTT-1S  is  designed  to  be  a  solution  for  fast  and easy function testing of 
the  HT-S  series  of  dielectric  withstand  and  continuity  testers,  including  high 
current  models  delivering  up  to  30  amps.    It  allows  function  tests  of  all  three 
failure modes to ensure that your tester is functioning properly.   
  The HTT-1S is designed to verify calibration points at a fixed value. 
 
  The HTT-1S, used daily, will prove function of the safety testers before shifts 
or  before  testing  of  a  lot  of  products.    It  is  provided  with  three  switches  which 
simulate  passing  and  failing  equipment  for  ground  continuity,  high  leakage 
between  primary  circuits  and  ground,  and  dielectric  withstand  failure  between 
primary  and ground circuits.  While all three switches can be simultaneously set 
for  failing  modes,  we  recommend  that  the  HTT-1S  be  set  with  one  failure  at  a 
time to ensure that your testers are functioning correctly.   
 
 

A proper test plan would be constituted of the following tests: 

1.

 

Connect HTT-1S to the tester outputs. 

2.

 

Set all three switches on the HTT-1S to ‘PASS’. 

3.

 

Verify passing result on the Tester. 

4.

 

Set the Ground switch on the HTT-1S to ‘FAIL’; set both other switches to 

‘PASS’. 
5.

 

Verify Ground failure on the Tester. 

6.

 

Set the Leakage switch on the HTT-1S to ‘FAIL’; set both other switches to 

‘PASS’. 
7.

 

Verify Leakage current failure on the Tester. 

8.

 

Set the Hipot switch on the HTT-1S to ‘FAIL’; set both other switches to 

‘PASS’. 
9.

 

Confirm high voltage output by watching for a spark in the Arc Detect window 

of the HTT-1S; verify dielectric breakdown failure on the Tester. 
 

The  above  plan  is  presented  in  more  detail  in  the  Operation  Section  of  this 

Manual;  showing  proper  connection  of  the  HTT-1S  to  any  dielectric  tester  and 
any high current ground continuity tester you may wish to test. 
 

If any of the tests above return unanticipated results, you may have a problem 

with  your  tester.    It  is  recommended  that  it  be  removed  from  service  until  the
