SAFETY CHECKLIST
Survey the test station. Make sure it is safe & orderly.
Always keep unqualied/unauthorized personnel away from the test area.
Familiarize yourself with safety protocols in the event of a problem.
Exercise caution and never touch products or connections during a test.
Train operators. Never touch clips directly and always connect the return lead rst.
You should always know when a test is being performed.
WARNING: THIS G UIDE WAS CRE ATED FOR O PERATORS HAVIN G SOME FAMILI ARITY W ITH ELECT RICAL SA FETY
TESTING. AN ELECTRICAL SAFETY TESTER PRODUCES VOLTAGES AND CURRENTS THAT CAN CAUSE HARMFUL
OR FATAL ELECTRIC SHOCK. TO PRE VENT ACCIDENTAL INJURY OR DE ATH, THESE SAFETY PROCEDURES MUST
BE STRICTLY OBSERVED WHEN HANDLING AND USING A TEST INSTRUMENT. CONTACT US AT
[email protected] FOR MORE INFO ON HOW TO GET TRAINED ON ELECTRICAL SAFETY TESTING.

INSTRUMENT SETUP
Connect the female end of the standard NEMA style power cord into the
input power receptacle on the rear panel of the instrument. Plug the male
end of the cord into a grounded power source.
Connect the interlock disable key to the signal input connector on the
rear panel of the instrument. This is required to run a test.
Turn the POWER switch to ON.
After a test has been set, you may edit the test parameters at any time.

TEST LEAD CONNECTIONS
If there is no ground circuit present on the DUT, you can use test leads to connect
the OMNIA II to the DUT.
Plug the black return lead (P/N 38490) into the Return terminal. Plug black
sense lead into the Sense (-) terminal.
Attach the clip-terminated end of the return lead to the dead metal on
the chassis of the DUT.
Connect the high voltage lead (P/N 4040A-08) into the High Voltage
terminal on the front panel of the instrument.
Attach the high voltage lead to the current-carrying conductors of
the DUT.
Did you know? When performing a Ground Bond test on a Class I product
connect the red high current lead (P/N 38489) into the current terminal and red
sense lead into the sense (+) terminal. The clip at the other end will connect to the
ground pin of the DUT plug.
Did you know? If necessary, a 10 x 20 cm piece of foil can be attached to the
enclosure to simulate a full hand contact to the DUT. This foil acts as the return
point. The return and sense (-) terminal are attached to the foil. Always check to
make sure you made a good connection between the DUT and the return clip.

TEST CONNECTIONS
WARNING: DO NOT TOUCH THE DEVICE UNDER TEST ONCE YOU START THE TEST.
ADAPTER BOX CONNECTIONS (8204/8254)
The adapter box (P/N 38482) provides an easy way to connect the OMNIA II to a
device under test (DUT).
Note: If you are testing a Class I product, safety agencies may require you to perform
a Ground Bond test on the ground circuit of the DUT along with the Hipot test.
Using the output ports on the rear panel, plug the black high voltage lead in
the High Voltage terminal.
Plug the sense lead into the Sense (+) terminal. Plug the high current test
lead into the Current terminal. These two red leads act as the ground
connection.
Connect the ground return clip (P/N 38490) to the dead metal on the chassis
of the DUT. Plug the sense lead into the Sense (-) terminal. Plug the return
lead into the Return terminal. Always check to make sure a good connection
is made between the DUT and the return clip.
Plug the power cord of the DUT into the adapter box receptacle.

Using the DUT output ports on the rear panel, plug the line lead from the
adapter box into the L terminal and the neutral lead into the N terminal.
Attach the red ground lead from the adapter box to the GND terminal.
Attach the black case return (P/N CBLHC40-10TL) lead into the case terminal.
