Section 3 

Operation 

 
This  section  describes  how  to  set  up  and  make  measurements  with  the  HT-10KVDC.    We 
recommend that you read the entire section carefully so that you can use all of its features.

  

 

Setting up the HT-10KVDC 

 
The HT-10KVDC is shipped in a special protective container that should prevent damage during 
shipping.  The container should include the following: 
 

 

The HT-10KVDC Dielectric Withstand Tester 

 

 

A black 18 AWG Test Return Lead (Alligator Clip/Banana Plug ends) 

 

 

A red 18 AWG High Voltage Test Lead (Alligator Clip/High Voltage Plug ends) 

 

 

A Power Cord.  

 

 

This Instruction Manual 

 

Use  the  original  shipping  container  for  subsequent  shipping.    If    the  original  shipping 
container  is  not  available,  be  sure  that  adequate  protection  is  provided  to  prevent  damage 
during shipment. 

 
Remove the Tester from its container and place it on a test bench.   

 

AC Line Voltage Requirements 

 
Connect the HT-10KVDC only to the voltage source per the rating on the rear panel.

 

 

Fuse Replacement 

 

There  is  a  user-replaceable  fuse  (F1)  located  on  the  rear  panel.    The  fuse  rating  is  on  the  rear 
panel. 
 
Use the following procedure to replace the fuse F1: 
1.  Turn the power switch to the O or off position. 
2.  Unplug the HT-10KVDC from the source of supply. 
3.  Remove the power cord from the HT-10KVDC. 
4.  Open the fuseholder door. 
5.  Replace the fuse with one of the correct rating. 
6.  Replace the fuseholder door and power inlet cord.
