Continuity Tests

Each panel is thoroughly tested at the ADC factory before being shipped. However, before the
panel is installed, continuity tests, as described here, should be performed to verify that no
internal damage has occurred during shipping and handling.
Using a multimeter that is set to perform a continuity check, perform the following tests.
Test 1: Input Battery to Input Return—Perform this test on each input power terminal block.
Connect one test probe to the input power BATT (–) terminal and the other test probe to the
input power RTN (+) terminal. Verify that no continuity exists between the input power BATT
and RTN terminals.

Test 2: Input Battery to Output Battery—Perform this test for each fuse position and fuse
type (refer to
1. Remove the fuse holder from the fuse platform.
2. Insert a working fuse into the fuse holder.
