The test rectifier consists of a medium
power silicon rectifier mounted on an
appropriate heat sink in a small molded
case. Connections to the terminals at each
end of the case may be made by clamping
leads or terminal under the molded thumb
nuts, or by clipping the leads directly to the
hexagonal portion of the terminal. A half
wave rectifier symbol is shown on the
nameplate of facilitate proper choice of DC
meter connections.
APPLICATION
The test rectifier is a compact, portable
piece of test equipment designed for
calibration testing of the second harmonic
restraint feature of differential or overcurrent
relays.
