installation
g. Take initial readings:
(1) After installation is complete, measure the resistance from each heater
leg to ground to ensure that there are no short-circuits. Resistance
should be infinite.
(2) Turn the de-icer on by switching it to Manual, and measure its current
draw with an ammeter. Compare this reading with
Table 2
on page 24.
(3) Record the resistance and current readings in your maintenance log for
future reference in troubleshooting the de-icer system. See
Sample
maintenance log
on page 37 for a suggested log format.
