If incorrect readings are obtained, make the necessary switch adjustment or replace the switch.

CARRY OUT 4R CHECKS.

CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.
Isolate the switch to be tested and using an ohmmeter check between the terminals as described in
the following table.

CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.
Disconnect the leads to the primary winding of the high voltage  transformer. Disconnect the filament
and secondary winding connections from the rest of the HV circuitry. Using an ohmmeter, set on a low
range,  it is possible to check the continuity of all three winding. The following readings should be
obtained:-

a. Primary winding .......................... 2.8 ohms approximately
b. Secondary winding .................... 189 ohms approximately
c. Filament winding .....................................  less than 1 ohm

If the readings obtained are not stated as above, then the high voltage transformer is probably faulty
and should be replaced.
CARRY OUT 4R CHECKS.

CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.
Isolate the high voltage rectifier assembly from the HV circuit. The high voltage rectifier  can be tested
using an ohmmeter set to its highest range. Connect the ohmmeter across the terminal of the high
voltage rectifier and note the reading obtained. Reverse the meter leads and note this second reading.
The normal resistance is infinite in one direction and more than 100 k

Ω in the other direction.

CARRY OUT 4R CHECKS.

NOTE: FOR MEASUREMENT OF THE RESISTANCE OF THE RECTIFIER, THE BATTERIES OF

THE MEASURING INSTRUMENT MUST HAVE A VOLTAGE AT LEAST 6 VOLTS, BECAUSE
OTHERWISE AN INFINITE RESISTANCE MIGHT BE SHOWN IN BOTH DIRECTIONS.

CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.

A. Isolate the high voltage capacitor from the circuit.
B. Continuity check must be carried out with measuring instrument which is set to the highest

resistance range.

C. A normal capacitor shows continuity for a short time (kick) and then a resistance of about 10M

Ω after

it has been charged.

D. A short-circuited capacitor shows continuity all the time.
E. An open capacitor constantly shows a resistance about 10 M

Ω because of its internal 10MΩ

resistance.

F. When the internal wire is opened in the high voltage capacitor, the capacitor shows an infinite

resistance.

G. The resistance across all the terminals and the chassis must be infinite when the capacitor is  normal.
If incorrect reading are obtained, the high voltage capacitor must be replaced.
