Electrical Test Instruments AD-1

Portable AC/DC Power Supply

Electrical Test Instruments AD-1
  • This instrument is housed in a rugged waterproof case with a hinged lid.
  • The input connection is by way of a recessed three prong male inlet compatible with standard extension cords.
  • The input is protected and controlled by a 10 amp single pole circuit breaker.
  • When it is turned ON, a single or dual deck variable autotransformer (vernier) is energized, and an amber POWER ON light is illuminated, as well as a 0-600 volt digital meter.
  • The output arm(s) are protected by a one or two pole breaker.
  • The variable output of the vernier is connected to the primaries of two 750 VA toroidal transformers.
  • The secondaries are connected in series and parallel configuration by means of a multi-deck six position selector switch.
  • The AC output is monitored by the 0-600 VAC digital meter.
  • An additional resistor is added in DC mode to read the expected DC output voltage under normal load conditions.
