If it is connected in parallel with other rectifiers, verify that the total system current is shared equally amongst the rectifiers. Put the switch on each rectifier to AMP. Find the mean current of the rectifiers by adding all the currents measured on each rectifier and dividing the total current by the number of rectifiers Set the current from each rectifier to this mean value.
