    5 Testing Operation Testing Operation 5.1 Outline  Connecting the DUT When using a connection box (e.g. "A3"), just put the DUT's mains plug into the power socket of the box. All electrical tests will now be executed via the DUT's mains supply. If required by the actual test norm, and/or if you need to test device parts that are not reachable via the mains connection, the DUT can also be contacted manually.

  • Page 26: Ct: Continuity Test

    6 Creation of test programs 6.3.2 CT: Continuity Test The continuity test is a simplified form of the resistance test (see previous page). This step has no parameters; it operates with fixed thresholds. It is primarily used to quickly and easily check, prior to a functional test, whether: a) a test object is connected at all b) the test object may have a short circuit (in this case, it is better not to carry out a functional test)
  • Page 27: Ground Bond Test

    6.3 Editing of a test program 6.3.3 GB: Ground Bond Test The ground bond test measures the resistance between PE (earthing) and housing of DUT. The resistance should be as low as possible. If resistance values between R and R are measured, DUT has passed the test.
