Before Repair And Adjustment - Panasonic SA-HT990E Service Manual

1.1.2. LEAKAGE CURRENT HOT CHECK (See
1. Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet. Do not use an
isolation transformer for this check.
2. Connect a 1.5k , 10 watts resistor, in parallel with a 0.15
capacitors, between each exposed metallic part on the set and a
good earth ground such as a water pipe, as shown in
3. Use an AC voltmeter, with 1000 ohms/volt or more sensitivity, to
measure the potential across the resistor.
4. Check each exposed metallic part, and measure the voltage at
each point.
5. Reverse the AC plug in the AC outlet and repeat each of the above
measurements.
6. The potential at any point should not exceed 0.75 volts RMS. A
leakage current tester (Simpson Model 229 or equivalent) may be
used to make the hot checks, leakage current must not exceed 1/2
milliamp. In case a measurement is outside of the limits specified,
there is a possibility of a shock hazard, and the equipment should
be repaired and rechecked before it is returned to the customer.

1.2. Before Repair and Adjustment

Disconnect AC power, discharge Power Supply Capacitors C5716, C5717, C5718 through a 10
, 10 W resistor to ground.
DO NOT SHORT-CIRCUIT DIRECTLY (with a screwdriver blade, for instance), as this may
destroy solid state devices.
After repairs are completed, restore power gradually using a variac, to avoid overcurrent.
Current consumption at AC 230 V, 50 Hz in NO SIGNAL mode volume minimal should be ~ 600
mA (For E/ EG).
