leaving a residue. Do not saturate the cloth, use only enough alcohol to
remove the grease and not drip alcohol into the test board or the socket jaws.
‐
Inspect the Meter Socket surface for damage such as cracks or punctures.
Surface damage is rare.
‐
Clean the contact surfaces of the jaws in the Meter Socket using a soft cloth
wrapped around a tongue depressor or Popsicle stick. Lightly moisten the
cloth with isopropyl or denatured alcohol. Do not saturate the cloth, use only
enough alcohol to remove contaminates. Be careful not to remove the
lubricant at the pivot pin. Ample lubrication is applied at the factory to last
the life of the socket. Excessive alcohol will collect at the pivot pin and
degrade or remove the lubricant causing the jaws to wear prematurely.
‐
Inspect the jaws in the Meter Socket. Look for contaminants that were not
removed during cleaning. Examine the jaw for damage from debris that may
have been attached to the meter spade(s). Be sure the silver surface of the
contacts is not scratched or pitted. Look for signs of wear.
‐
The voltage pins of the socket require minimal maintenance. Clean the pins
using a soft cloth moistened with isopropyl or denatured alcohol. Apply light
pressure while rubbing the contact surface of each pin in a circular motion.
‐
Inspect each pin. Look for signs of wear along the shaft. Look for deep
scratches on the contact surface of each pin. Also check for contaminates that
may not have been removed during cleaning. Fully depress each pin and
release to ensure the spring returns the contact to the original position.
