Calibration Manual
Required Equipment
Equipment required to perform the procedures in this manual is listed in
Table 2. If the recommended models are not available, equipment with
equivalent specifications may be substituted. Go to
the Users Manual for specific operating instructions.
For safe operation and maintenance of the product, have an
approved technician repair the product.
Do not attempt to use the 5500A, 5520A, or other standard
calibrator for insulation and continuity resistance tests.
Calibrator damage will result.

Resistors must have a voltage coefficient consistent with the test voltage used.
Can use (3) each, 0.033 μF, 2 kV capacitors in series and (8) each, 8 μF, 450 V capacitors in series to obtain
[2]
required values. The 0.033 μF capacitors should have a 33 MΩ bleeder resistor across each capacitor. The 8 μF
capacitors should have a 15 MΩ bleeder resistor across each capacitor.
