Leakage Current Cold Check; Leakage Current Hot Check (See Figure 1.) - Panasonic Lumix DMC-LS1S Service Manual

2.2. LEAKAGE CURRENT COLD CHECK

1. Unplug the AC cord and connect a jumper between the two
prongs on the plug.
2. Measure the resistance value, with an ohmmeter, between the
jumpered AC plug and each exposed metallic cabinet part on the
equipment such as screwheads, connectors, control shafts, etc.
When the exposed metallic part has a return path to the chassis,
the reading should be between 1 M
exposed metal does not have a return path to the chassis, the
reading must be infinity.

2.3. LEAKAGE CURRENT HOT CHECK (See Figure 1.)

1. Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet. Do not use an
isolation transformer for this check.
2. Connect a 1.5 k
capacitor, between each exposed metallic part on the set and a
good earth ground, as shown in Figure 1.
3. Use an AC voltmeter, with 1 k
the potential across the resistor.
4. Check each exposed metallic part, and measure the voltage at
each point.
5. Reverse the AC plug in the AC outlet and repeat each of the above
measurements.
6. The potential at any point should not exceed 0.75 V RMS. A
leakage current tester (Simpson Model 229 or equivalent) may be
used to make the hot checks, leakage current must not exceed 1/2
mA. In case a measurement is outside of the limits specified,
there is a possibility of a shock hazard, and the equipment should
be repaired and rechecked before it is returned to the customer.
