Test Procedures
Connect the wiring harness or connector to the test bench using provided clamps.
Configure the test parameters: working current, number of loops, test duration, and measurement channels.
Start the test sequence to simultaneously record voltage drop, temperature rise, and overload conditions.
For series or parallel configurations, verify total current flow against set values.
Monitor the test on the display or PC interface. Automatic short-circuit detection will stop the test if necessary.
Upon completion, review recorded data and export for analysis or reporting.
Disconnect the test harness and prepare the system for the next test.
Maintenance Information
Regularly inspect electrical connections and clamps for wear or oxidation.
Verify calibration of voltage and temperature sensors periodically.
Keep the workbench clean and free from dust or debris.
Ensure cooling fans or ventilation systems operate correctly to prevent overheating.
Perform software updates and backup test data routinely.
