Page 8: Safety Precautions
Currents of as little as 5 mA at 120 volts can cause death, and the HT- 3000P-1A-AC is capable of generating 1 A at up to 3000 volts. The HT-3000P-1A-AC has been designed to minimize exposure to high voltages. However, the potential for serious injury or death exists and personnel should be aware when they conduct this test. -
Page 9: Safety Techniques
Safety Techniques The high voltage circuit of the HT-3000P-1A-AC can be shut off at any time by pressing the RESET button. The HT-3000P-1A-AC has been provided with a Reset switch to provide an unarmed "Standby" setting when it is energized, but idle. When the red RESET button is lit. The tester will not provide high voltage until the RESET button and the TEST button have been pressed in order. -
Page 10: Sporadic Leakage Current Failures
If the leakage current adjustment of the HT-3000P-1A-AC is set to 1 A and almost all the samples of the model being tested are still failing, the primary circuit capacitance of the equipment may be too high to allow the AC dielectric withstand test to be used. -
Page 11: Introduction And Specifications
Test results are determined quickly, without operator intervention. The HT-3000P-1A-AC allows custom setups for test time and leakage limit. Voltage is discharged by a resistor bank within the HT-3000P-1A-AC upon test completion. Discharge progress is shown on the front panel meter. -

AC Leakage Current can be set to levels of up to 1000 mA. To set the leakage limit follow the steps below. Connect the HT-3000P-1A-AC to a correctly rated source of supply and turn the power switch to the I or ON position. Push the RESET button. The yellow TEST indicator should light, indicating that the HT-3000P-1A-AC is ready to test. -
Page 18: Adjustment Of The High Voltage Test Time
Adjustment of the High Voltage Test Time This procedure sets the length of time the HT-3000P-1A-AC will conduct the high voltage test. Consult the safety agencies for the test time for the type of equipment being tested. If a different test time is required, use this procedure to set it. -

1% resistor. Service Information The HT-3000P-1A-AC is warranted to the original purchaser for a period of 1 year. This warranty does not cover problems due to misuse or neglect. Malfunctions which occur within the limits of the warranty will be corrected at no charge. -
Page 21: Calibration Procedure
Clean the front panel and case with a mild solution of detergent and a damp sponge. Clean dust from the PWB with clean, dry, low pressure (<20 psi). Calibration Procedure The Calibration Procedure should be performed annually and any time your instrument has been repaired. -

13. Turn Off the HT-3000P-1A-AC tester. 14. The voltage can be verified by turning on the HT-3000P-1A-AC, running a test, and using the 1000:1 voltage probe to check the meter at different voltages. If the voltages are not within +/- 2% +/- 1 count at each voltage, the voltage calibration must be performed again starting at step 1 above.
