C: HIGH VOLTAGE RECTIFIER TEST
CARRY OUT
3D
CHECKS.
Isolate the high voltage rectifier assembly from the HV circuit. The high voltage rectifier can be tested using an ohmmeter set to its
highest range. Connect the ohmmeter across the terminal of the high voltage rectifier and note the reading obtained. Reverse the me
-
ter leads and note this second reading. The normal resistance is infinite in one direction and more than 100 kW in the other direction.

CHECKS.
NOTE: FOR MEASUREMENT OF THE RESISTANCE OF THE RECTIFIER, THE BATTERIES OF THE MEASURING
INSTRUMENT MUST HAVE A VOLTAGE AT LEAST 6 VOLTS, BECAUSE OTHERWISE AN INFINITE RESIST-
ANCE MIGHT BE SHOWN IN BOTH DIRECTION.
D: HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR TEST
CARRY OUT
3D
CHECKS.
Isolate the high voltage capacitor from the circuit.
1.
Continuity check must be carried out with measuring instrument which is set to the highest resistance range.
2.
A normal capacitor shows continuity for a short time (kick) and then a resistance of about 10MW after it has been charged.
3.
A short -circuited capacitor shows continuity all the time.
4.
An open capacitor constantly shows a resistance about 10 MW because of its internal 10MW resistance.
5.
When the internal wire is opened in the high voltage capacitor shows an infinite resistance.
6.
The resistance across all the terminals and the chassis must be infinite when the capacitor is normal.
7.
If incorrect reading are obtained, the high voltage capacitor must be replaced.

Parts Name
Temperature of "ON" condition
(Closed circuit).
Temperature of "OFF" condition
(Open circuit).
Indication of ohmmeter
(When room temperature is approx. 20°C.)
Temperature fuse 150°C
This is not resetable type.
Above 150°C
Closed circuit
If incorrect readings are obtained, replace the temperature fuse.
An open circuit temperature fuse (OVEN) indicates that the food in the oven cavity may catch fire, this may be due to overheating pro
