EST: Ensuring Connectivity During Product Safety Testing
There is nothing worse than believing the correct voltage is being applied to a Device Under Test (DUT), only to find out a cable is broken and the only thing that has been tested is the hipot tester itself and part of the cable. Data collection and evaluation may help reduce operator error, but there are other precautions that can be put in place to ensure the safety test is performed correctly. Read this article to learn more about safeguards to ensure proper testing.

Power: Use an AC Power Source to Measure Motor Inductance and Impedance
The inductance or impedance of a motor can be a key parameter during the manufacture and servicing of both AC and DC motors. The inductance of both AC and DC motors can be measured using a low voltage AC source. This application note discusses how this can be accomplished with QuadTech's 3100 AC Programmable Power Source Series.
