Section 8 Hi-Pot Testing
Hi-Pot
Overview
This device is designed to withstand a high-
potential “hi-pot” (dielectric) test up to
2000 Vrms according to IEEE 1613. However, the surge protection circuitry must
be bypassed before performing this test. See section 8 for details.
Caution:
The switch’s surge protection circuitry may be damaged if you do not disconnect
it while performing a
“hi-pot” test.
Hi-Pot Slot
The switch features a unique method for temporarily disconnecting the surge
protection circuitry. An opening in the switch case called the “Hi-Pot Slot” provides
for this capability. To perform a Hi-pot test please follow the directions below.
Hi-Pot Test
Step 1
Locate and expose the hi-pot slot. It is found on the side opposite the Ethernet ports. You
may need to remove the power plug or power cover.

Step 2
Acquire or make a hi-pot slot card. You can do this in several ways as follows:
A. Contact Red Lion
and ask to be sent a complimentary “hi-pot slot card”.
B. Use a credit-card-sized plastic card (without raised lettering so not an actual credit
card), laminated business card or other similar plastic card. The dimensions should
be as shown in the diagram below.
C.
Cut out a card from 0.02” to 0.03” plastic (such as ABS or polycarbonate). The
dimensions should be as shown in the diagram below.
