1-2 Servicing Precaution
WARNING 1: First read the Safety Precaution section of this manual. If some unforeseen circumstance creates a conflict between the servicing and safety precautions, always follow the safety precaution.
WARNING 2: An electrolytic capacitor installed with the wrong polarity might explode.
1.Always unplug the unit’s AC power cord from the AC power source or the Power Switch off before attempting to:
(a)Remove or reinstall any component or assembly,
(b)Disconnect an electrical plug or connector,
(c)Connect a test component in parallel with an electrolytic capacitor.
2.Some components are raised above the printed circuit board for safety.
An insulation tube or tape is sometime used. The internal wiring is sometimes clamped to prevent contact with thermally hot components. Reinstall all such elements to their original position.
3.After servicing, always check that the screws, components and wiring have been correctly reinstalled. Make sure that the portion around the serviced part has not been damaged.
4.Check the insulation between the blades of the AC plug and accessible conductive parts.
(example: metal panels and input terminals).
5. Insulation Checking Procedure:
Disconnect the power cord from the AC source and turn the power switch ON. Connect an insulation resistance meter (500V) to the blades of the AC plug. The insulation resistance between each blade of the AC plug and accessible conductive parts (see above) should be greater than 1
6.Never defeat any of the B+ voltage interlock. Do not apply AC power to the unit (or any of its assemblies) unless all
7.Always connect an instrument’s ground lead to the instrument chassis ground before connecting the positive lead; always remove the instrument’s ground lead last.
