SAFETY  CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the follow-
ing safety check before releasing the set to the customer:
Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, 
screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage.
Check leakage as described below.
LEAKAGE  TEST
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and 
from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a 
return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microamperes.). 
Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1.  A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA 
WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions to use these 
instruments.
2.  A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245 
digital multimeter is suitable for this job.
3.  Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a 
VOM or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The “limit” indication 
is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage 
scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples 
of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated 
digital multimeters that have a 2 V AC range are suitable. (See

NOTES  ON  CHIP  COMPONENT  REPLACEMENT
• 
Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
• 
Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be dam-
aged by heat.
FLEXIBLE  CIRCUIT  BOARD  REPAIRING
• 
Keep the temperature of soldering iron around 270 °C during 
repairing.
• 
Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the 
circuit board (within 3 times).
• 
Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering 
or unsoldering.
