Performing a Current Consumption Test
To measure the current consumed by the DUT, press
A. The Analyzer displays the current flowing through
the mains connections of the test receptacle.
Performing Leakage Current Tests
The Analyzer measures leakage current for a number of
different DUT configurations. In addition to the leakage
found on the enclosure and the earth connection, the
Analyzer can measure leakage on each connected applied
part and combinations of connected applied parts.
Which leakage tests are available depends on which
standard is selected. See the Selecting the Test Standard
section earlier in this manual to change the standard the
Analyzer is using.
Table 5 lists six leakage current tests that have different
names based on which standard is selected.
Press B to access the leakage current main menu
shown in Figure 17.
