limits are exceeded the output will shut down until the voltage control is
turned to reset. Illuminated displays show that the tester is switched on and
the 'kV ON' lamp indicates that high voltage may be present at the outlet.
The HV gun probe has been designed with operator safety as the prime
consideration. The trigger for the retractable high voltage probe sleeve is
situated behind the finger guard and the integral lead is terminated in a
custom designed high voltage safety connector.
2.2 CONTROLS (Fig. 1 Refers)
2.2.1 VOLTAGE
This control adjusts the output of the electronic AC regulator between
reset and maximum, 2kV or 4kV which ever is selected. The reset
position is used to re-energise the high voltage output circuit after
exceeding the maximum level or after power switch on. Reset is also
used to reset the trip circuit after a failure of the "DUT".
2.2.2 VOLTAGE SELECT
A two way switch allows 0-2kV or 0-4kV to be selected.

4.APPLICATIONS
4. 1 PRELIMINARY CHECKS
The E3640 flash tester is ideal for flash and applied AC voltage testing of
all kinds of electrical and electronic equipment and components.
Requirements for testing are contained in many British and International
standards and in the sixteenth edition of the IEE Wiring regulations
(BS7671).
Testing is mainly carried out on factory assemblies, but if an on-site repair
is carried out or a factory assembled item is fitted on site then the same
tests are carried out.
Please ensure the test lead is pushed fully into the test socket and locked in
position prior to carrying out any tests.
