Combi-tester G7-1G/-1H/-1T/-1U 1. INTRODUCTION The electronic voltage ramp up makes it possible to perform tests on electronic devices that can only be tested non-destructively by slowly in- creasing the test voltage or on test objects with high self-capacitance. Due to the fully electronically regulated test voltage, the variable transformer otherwise used is not necessary.
Combi-tester G7-1G/-1H/-1T/-1U 1. INTRODUCTION Standards supported The device supports tests, e.g., in accordance with: • EN 60335-1 Household and similar electrical appliances. Safety • EN 60598-1 Luminaires • EN 60950 Information technology equipment. Safety • EN 61010-1 Safety regulations for electric measurement, control and laboratory equipment •...
