To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death, disconnect power to oven and discharge capacitor before servicing, unless testing requires it. All SOLWAVE microwave oven power outputs are rated using the IEC705 standards. Using the IEC705 test method requires precision measurements and equipment that is not practical to be performed in the field. Using the test shown below will indicate if the oven performance is satisfactory.
