1041 Resistance Decade Box User Manual

3.3 Operating Instructions
3.3.1 Connections
Connection to the decade box is via 4 mm safety terminal posts, using 4 mm shrouded or
standard plugs. Alternatively, crocodile clips or stripped wire connections can be used.
Whatever method is used, the connection must be tight to the terminal posts to avoid
introducing unwanted additional resistance.
The red and black active terminals connect to the resistance elements, and the green
terminal is connected to the case for screening purposes.
For certain applications, the user may want to connect the case terminal to either
of the active terminals. This can be done, but the case would then be at the same
potential as the active terminals. The user should be aware that this could be
hazardous and safety precautions must be taken to prevent electric shock.
