Operation Verification 103
B
Operation Verification
Introduction
This appendix provides operation verification test procedures. The tests do not check all the operating parameters, but
verify that the power supply is performing properly. The required test equipment and acceptable test results are specified in
tables at the end of this appendix.
Note Performance Tests, which check all the specifications of the power supply, are given in the applicable
power supply Service Manual.

Current Monitoring Resistor
The 4-terminal current-monitoring resistor listed in Table B-1 is required to eliminate output current measurement error
caused by voltage drops in leads and connections. The specified resistors have special current-monitoring terminals inside
the load connection terminals. Connect the current monitor directly to these current-monitoring terminals.
