Diverse lineup of products
A diverse lineup of products is available for the various
combinations of test required in production lines to
accommodate a variety of needs. Tests can be performed in accordance with the requirements of safety
and electrical standards and ordinances such as IEC,
EN, BS, VDE, UL, CSA, GB, and JIS.
Safety standards define that corona discharge and partial discharge are not dielectric breakdown. This product
allows you to adjust the detection sensitivity of EUT’s
dielectric breakdown during withstanding voltage testing
to support a wide range of settings from those that do
not detect corona discharge or partial discharge to those
that do. Failure analysis that were not possible with previous Kikusui withstanding voltage testers is now possible.

Safety Precautions for Testing
WARNING
Lighting of the DANGER LED
The DANGER LED lights when the product is in any of the following conditions.
• At power on
• When a test is running
• When high voltage is being output
• When voltage remains at the output terminals
• When supply voltage is being supplied to the EUT (TOS9303LC only)
Check whether the DANGER LED lights at power on. If it does not, stop using the product, and contact
your Kikusui agent or distributor.
Test Precautions
Pre-test precautions
Risk of electric shock. In a AC withstanding voltage test, the TOS93 series generates a
maximum voltage of 5.0 kVac. In a DC withstanding voltage test, the TOS9301,
TOS9303, and TOS9303LC generate a maximum voltage of 7.2 kVdc. Handling the
product improperly may lead to a fatal accident. To prevent accidents, strictly follow
the precautions and always pay the utmost attention to safety concerns when you
operate the product.
Check the following items before you start testing, and always follow the precautions.
• The power cord is connected to a properly grounded outlet.
• There is no damage such as tears or breaks in the test lead insulation.
• When the POWER switch is turned on, the DANGER LED lights.
• While the DANGER LED is lit, do not touch the items that are charged to a high voltage: the EUT,
the test leads, and the areas near the output terminals.
• When the DANGER LED is lit, do not turn the POWER switch off except in an emergency.

Risk of electric shock.
• While the DANGER LED is lit, it is dangerous to touch the items that are charged to
a high voltage: the EUT, the test leads, the probes, and the areas near the output terminals.
• The alligator clip vinyl insulation of the supplied tests do not have dielectric
strength. Never touch these while the DANGER LED is lit.
• When performing a withstanding voltage test, be sure to wear rubber gloves for
electrical work. If obtaining these gloves is difficult, contact your Kikusui agent or
distributor.
During testing, the DANGER LED lights, and the display shows “TEST.” Be careful because high voltage
may be being output when the DANGER LED is lit.
Safety Precautions for Testing | Test Precautions
Precautions when setting test conditions
Before you set the test conditions or other settings, press the STOP switch, and then be sure to check the
following items to ensure safety.
• The DANGER LED is off.
• The voltmeter is displaying “0.”
TOS93 SeriesUser’s Manual19
Safety Precautions for Testing
WARNING
Precautions after Output Has Been Turned Off
Risk of electric shock.
• For a while after the output has been turned off, do not touch the items that have
been charged to a high voltage, such as the EUT, the test leads, the test probes, and
the areas near the output terminals.
• After the output has been turned off, the internal discharge circuit goes into operation and discharges the output voltage. During testing and before this discharge
completes, do not disconnect the tester from the EUT.
The EUT, test leads, test probes, and the area around the output terminals are all charged to a high voltage. After the output has been turned off, be sure to check the following before you touch the items that
have been charged to a high voltage.
• The DANGER LED is off.
• “RISE,” “TEST,” or “FALL” is not shown on the display.
• The voltmeter is displaying “0.”
If you will not use the product for some time or if the operator will be away from the product, be sure to turn
the POWER switch off.
Estimated discharge time
The time required to discharge the built-up electrical charge varies according to the test voltage and the
properties of the EUT.
The time that this product requires to discharge the voltage from its internal capacitors down to 30 V is as
follows:
• When an EUT is not connected: 16 ms for a DCW test, 1.5 ms for an IR test
• When an EUT with a input capacitance of 0.05 μF is connected: 50 ms for a DCW test, 6 ms for an IR
test

WARNING
Remote Control Precautions
If you are performing remote control at a location away from the product, to prevent accidents, follow the
safety measures given below.
• Make sure that high voltages are not generated unintentionally.
• Make it impossible to touch the EUT, test leads, test probes, and the areas near the output terminals when high voltages are being generated.
Malfunction Precautions
Risk of electric shock.
• Until you get the product fixed, make sure that nobody can use it.
• For repairs, contact your Kikusui agent or distributor.
Dangerous malfunctions
If the product is in one of the states explained below, it may be malfunctioning in a very dangerous manner—it may not be possible to turn off the high voltage that is being generated.
• Even when you press the STOP switch, the DANGER LED remains lit.
• Even though a voltage is indicated on the voltmeter, the DANGER LED does not light.
If the tester is not operating properly, it may be generating a high voltage irrespective of the settings made
by the operator. Immediately turn the POWER switch off, and disconnect the power cord from the outlet.
Stop using the product immediately, and contact your Kikusui agent or distributor.
Emergency measures
There are two actions that you must carry out if, due to a malfunction in the product or the EUT, there is a
possibility of an emergency occurring such as electric shock or damage to the EUT.
• Turn the POWER switch off.
• Remove the power cord plug from the outlet.

Turning the power on
• When the power is turned on for the first time after purchase, the interlock function sets
the product in PROTECTION mode and prevents tests from being performed. Temporarily
connect the included SIGNAL I/O plug to the SIGNAL I/O connector to release the PROTECTION mode (p.204).
• When you actually perform tests, design a system that uses the interlock for safety
(p.205).
By factory default, the panel settings immediately before the POWER switch is turned off are saved. When
you turn the power on, the product starts in the same state as it was in the last time it was turned off. (However, the output is off.)
The panel setting state at startup can be changed (p.220).
Check that the power cord is connected properly.
1
Turn the POWER switch ( ) on.

Examples of how to connect test leads to the EUT
Reducing the effect of noise
Electronic devices in the surrounding area may malfunction due to the effect of noise produced by short
circuits across outputs or a dielectric breakdown of the EUT. To reduce the effect of noise, connect a toroidal core or a resistor of approximately 470 Ω between the tips of the high- and low-voltage test leads and
the EUT. Connect the toroidal core or resistor as close to the EUT as possible.
If you are connecting a toroidal core, it is effective to wrap the test leads two to three times around a type
of core that can be snapped on and that is often used with power cords. This type of core is usually
approximately 20 mm in diameter.
If you are connecting a resistor, pay close attention to the power rating of the resistor. When the upper limit
is 10 mA or less, connect a resistor of approximately 470 Ω (3 W, 30 kV impulse withstanding voltage).
Because connecting the resistor causes the voltage to fall, the voltage that is actually applied to the EUT is
slightly lower than the voltage that is generated from the product’s output terminals (when a 10 mA current
flows, the voltage falls approximately 10 V).
These methods are extremely useful in reducing the effect of noise.
