Connect
NOTE
If you are using the 2657A with the Model 8010 High Power
Device Test Fixture, the interlock connection may be made
using the CA-558-2 cable assembly. Refer to the
Model 8010
User’s Manual
for information on how to connect the 2657A
to the 8010.
If there are multiple points of operator access in the test
system, each point should have a separate relay wired in
series with the interlock. Using a series connection ensures
operator safety if an attempt is made to access the circuit
while hazardous voltages are present.
WARNING
Connect the enclosure of all metal test fixtures to
protective earth (safety ground). Nonconductive test
fixtures must be rated to double the maximum voltage
in the test circuit. Failure to attach the ground wires to a
known protective earth may result in electric shock.
WARNING
The 2657A is provided with an interlock circuit that must
be positively activated in order for the high voltage
output to be enabled. The interlock helps facilitate safe
operation of the equipment in a test system. Bypassing
the interlock could expose the operator to hazardous
voltages that could result in personal injury or death.
