SAFETYCHECKLIST
KEEP unqualified/unauthorized personnel away from test area
ARRANGE test stations in a safe and orderly manner
NEVER touch products or connections during a test
TURN OFF high voltage first in the event of a problem
NEVER perform a test on energized circuitry or equipment
BE SURE to always connect the return test lead first
HANDLE test clips by insulation only, never touch clips directly
WARNING: THIS GUIDE WAS CREATED
FOR OPERATORS HAVING SOME
FAMILIARITY WITH HIPOT AND ELECTRICAL SAFETY
TESTING. A HIPOT TESTER PRODUCES VOLTAGES
AND CURRENTS THAT CAN CAUSE HARMFUL OR
FATAL ELECTRIC SHOCK. TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL
INJURY OR DEATH, THESE SAFETY PROCEDURES
MUST BE STRICTLY OBSERVED WHEN HANDLING
AND USING A TEST INSTRUMENT.

Press the “Add” soft key and specify the type of test with the soft key options given (ACW, DCW, IR, Continuity for 8104 and Run Test or Line Leakage Test for 8105 and 8106).
  • Page 7 Use the arrow keys (up, down) to highlight the test to be edited and hit the “Edit” soft key. Use the soft keys to edit parameters on the right side of the screen. Use the arrows (up, down, left, right) to scroll between test parameters on the left side of the screen. Use the number keypad to change a parameter value.

  • Page 8: Performing A Test

    PERFORMINGATEST TEST CONNECTIONS (8104): The adapter box is an easy way to connect a Device Under Test (DUT) that terminates in either a two or three-prong line cord. The following diagram shows how to connect the adapter box to the instrument and the DUT.(See Figure 4) If you are testing a Class I product, you may elect to perform a ground bond test on the ground circuit of the DUT along with the hipot test.
  • Page 9 PERFORMINGATEST TEST CONNECTIONS (8105 & 8106): Under the DUT output ports on the back panel, plug the line lead from the adapter box into the L terminal and the neutral lead into the N terminal. Next attach the red ground lead from the adapter box to the GND terminal.
  • Page 10 PERFORMINGATEST TEST CONNECTIONS There is no ground circuit on the DUT of a Class II product. Therefore, test leads may be utilized to connect the OMNIA to a DUT. (See Figure 6) Plug the black return lead into the Return terminal and the black Kelvin lead into the Sense (–) lead.

  • Page 11: Test Results

    TEST RESULTS VIEWING TEST RESULTS From the Perform Tests screen, press the “Results” soft key. (See Figure 7) Use the up and down arrows to select the test to be reviewed or use the left and right arrows to page up and page down. Results are displayed on the right hand side of the screen including the test type, reason for failure and test parameter results.
