This is NOT the typical output voltage waveform. The output capacitor was disconnected from the circuit. Note the increased ripple in the waveform. This condi- tion simulates the faulty output filter capacitor. Each vertical division represents 10 volts and that each hor- izontal division represents 20 milliseconds in time.

Note: Scope probes connected at machine output ter- minals. Positive probe to (+) terminal, negative probe to (–) terminal.
