Test (DUT)
DUT with 3 Prong Plug
(If you are testing a DUT with other than
a three prong grounded power cord, see
diagram below titled : “SET-UP TESTING
2-WIRE HIPOT”)
WHAT IS NEEDED FOR FOR SELF TEST AND BASIC DEVICE TESTING:
(The ground sense wire has a banana plug
which inserts into the “Chassis Ground
Sense post on the front panel of the
ROD-L unit and allegator clip to be
connected to the DUT)
(The power cord connects to the rear
panel of the ROD-L unit and to any
grounded three-prong wall socket. Be
sure to set the line voltage on rear panel
to correct voltage i.e. 110 or 220)
1.a
Make sure the line voltage
switch on rear panel is set to
the correct value for the wall
outlet (i.e. 110 or 220).
1.b
Connect the POWER
CORD to the rear of the
ROD-L Unit and plug into
any three-prong grounded
wall outlet.
1.c
Turn on the Line Power on
the front panel of the ROD-
