Remote Voltage Sensing at the Rear Panel
External sens e terminals are also available on the back of the power supply
that allow the rear output voltages to be sensed at the load, which compensates
for impedance loss es in the load wiri ng. The front panel bindin g posts are
paralleled wi th the rear output termi nals .
The rear output terminals accept wires sizes from AWG 22 to AWG 10.
T o minimize the possibility of instability on the output, keep load leads as short
as possible and bundle or twist the leads tightly together to minimize
inductance.

Note For rear local voltage sensing connections, the front shorting bars must be removed
first and connect the sense wires as shown in Figure 3-3.
