SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS
SAFETY CHECK AFTER SERVING
Examine the area surrounding the repaired location for damage or deterioration. Observe that screw, parts and wires
have been returned to original positions. Afterwards, perform the following tests and conform the specified values in order
to verify compliance whit safety standards.
1. Insulation resistance test
Confirm the specified insulation resistance between power cord plug prong and externally exposed parts of the set
(RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.)
is
greater than values given in table 1 below.
2. Dielectric strengthen test
Confirm specified dielectric strengthen between power cord
plug prongs and exposed accessible parts of the set
(RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input output
terminals, microphone jack, ear phone jacks, etc.)
is greater than values given table 1.
3. Clearance distance
When replacing primary circuit component, confirm specified clearance distance (d), (d
and between terminals and surrounding metallic parts. See table below.

4. Leakage current test
Confirm specified or lower leakage current between B(earth
ground, power cord plug prongs) and externally exposed accessible parts (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input
output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.)
Measuring method:(Power ON) Insert load Z between B(earth
ground, power cord plug prongs) and exposed accessible parts.
Use on AC voltmeter to measure across both terminals of load Z.
See figure2 and following table.
