OPERATION 

2.1 

Safety 

 

The  outputs  from  all  units  in  the  range  are  very  dangerous,  and  if  used  incorrectly  could  be 
fatal.    The  unit  must  only  be  installed,  operated,  and  maintained  by  suitably  qualified  and 
trained personnel. 

It is essential to follow accepted safety procedures and local health and safety regulations and 
guidelines  when  installing  and  operating  high  voltage  equipment.    A  risk  assessment  should 
be undertaken on both the installation and the working procedures to ensure the safety of test 
personnel and all other personnel. 

2.1.1 

Installation 

 

The unit is designed to be installed and used in an indoor environment. 

2.1.1.2  Test Area 

 

The unit must be installed in a suitable high voltage test area completely enclosed by walls or 
some type of physical barrier.  Appropriate controls and safety measures must be applied to 
this  area  including  interlocks  connected  to  the  supply  or  HV  unit  interlock  to  ensure  that  the 
unit cannot be switched on unless the area is secure.  Refer to BS EN50191:2001 and IEEE 
Std  510-1983  for  further  details  of  suitable  test  enclosures.    The  test  area  must  also  be 
identified with suitable signs. 

2.1.1.3  Mains supply 

The  unit  must  be  connected  to  a  suitable  supply  via  an  approved  and  suitably  rated  mains 
connector with earth connection. 

2.1.1.3.1 Supply Voltage Selection 

 

 

Disconnect the KV5-100 mk3 from the Mains Supply. 

The  supply  voltage  selector  is  located  in  the  input  socket  module.      The  method  of 

 

selection is as follows:

 

 

a. 

Remove fuse drawer . 

 

b. 

Remove  and  rotate  fuse  carrier  until  desired  supply  voltage  is  seen  through 

 

 

the fuse drawer window. 

 

c. 

The  KV5-100  mk3  is  suitable  for  2  different  supply  voltages  as  follows: 

 

 

240V or 115V.

 

 

d. 

Replace fuse drawer once the desired voltage has been selected. 

IMPORTANT!

  Under  no  circumstances  should  the  supply  voltage  selector  be  altered  when  the 

 

equipment is energised. 

 

ALWAYS  ENSURE  THAT  THE  SUPPLY  VOLTAGE  SELECTOR  IS  IN  THE 
 

CORRECT VOLTAGE POSITION BEFORE ENERGISING THE EQUIPMENT
