Output Connections
The main DC output terminal is a binding post terminal on the front panel.
Before connecting wires to the output terminals, turn
OFF the power supply to avoid damage to the
instrument and the device under test (DUT). For
safety, load wires must have a wire gauge size large
enough to prevent overheating when the power
supply operates at maximum short circuit output
current. It will also prevent large voltage drops from
resistances in the wires.
SHOCK HAZARD:
Hazardous voltages may exist at the outputs and the
load connections when using a power supply with a
rated output greater than 40V. To protect personnel
against accidental contact with hazardous voltages,
ensure that the load and its connections have no
accessible live parts. Ensure that the load wiring
insulation rating is greater than to the maximum
output voltage of the power supply.
