10. Ground Fault Stop
This selection determines the status of ground fault detection. When On is selected the unit
monitors the ground return current, and if found to be different from the output current the
instrument is shut down. This is a safety feature, intended to make sure that the difference in
current is not in a path through the operator. When set to Off fault detection is not monitored.
When set to Off – DUT Grounded, the Return input is at chassis ground rather than virtual
ground.
