6.7 Automatic Discharge Function
When a test object that contains a capacity component is subjected to the
DC withstand-voltage test and insulation-resistance test, the object might
remain electrically charged, thereby causing an electric shock. This unit is
equipped with a function to discharge residual electricity upon termination of
the withstand-voltage test (discharge resistance: 726 k
Ω
).
The unit automatically switches to the internal discharge circuit to discharge
the test object (the
DANGER
lamp is lit).
When the voltage has dropped below approximately AC 0.03 kV or
approximately DC 60 V, the DANGER lamp goes out.
The larger the capacity component of the test object, the more time is
required to discharge the test object.
