Connections for testing
Before making the connections, prepare the wires as described in the
following table.
Connection Specifications
Front-panel output terminals AWG 22 to AWG 14
Sense terminals AWG 22 to AWG 14
The wire must be heavy enough that it does not overheat while
carrying the short-circuit current. You must meet the wiring
requirements described above.
Local sense connection
The local sense connection is used for basic operations when maximum
precision is not required. Keep the wire as short as possible to reduce
wire resistance. If you want higher measurement precision, use a remote
sense connection.
To connect the DUT to the power supply using local sense:
1. Connect the positive (+) terminals to the sense positive (S+)
terminals, and connect the negative (-) terminals to the sense
negative (S-) terminals to create a short circuit using short clips or
electric wire, as shown in the following figure.
2. Connect the positive and negative terminals of the intended channel
on the front panel to the DUT, as shown in the following figure.
