Figure F.2 shows a typical setup for 150 VA (right bank) High Current and
Distortion measurements.
Figure F.2 150 VA High Current Source Measurement
300 VA High Current Source
To perform the Amplitude and Distortion check on a 300 VA High
Current source:
1. Configure the F6000 for one 300 VA Current source by clicking User
Defined on the F6000 Configuration display in ProTesT.
• Set the number of Current Sources to 2.
• Set the number of Convertible V/I Sources to 0.
• Set the Current Sources Reference Designations so that both
sources are named I1.
2. Set the range to 7.5 A and amplitude to 7.5 A. Connect an ammeter
or appropriate shunt across the Source I1 output terminals (both I1
terminals must be connected to the ammeter or shunt), and turn the
source ON.
Verify that the amplitude is within limits and the total harmonic
distortion (THD) is <2%.
3. Change the amplitude as shown in Table F.4 and verify that the
amplitude and distortion are within the specified limits.
4. Repeat step 3 for the 60 A range.

The load including wire and connections must not exceed the Max.
Load specified in Table F.4.
Table F.4 lists the specifications for the 300 VA High Current Source
measurements. Minimum and maximum amplitudes are given in
amperes. When using a 4-terminal shunt, convert the values to the
appropriate voltages.
