The only real difference is grounding. Which is not rocket science and parts. Same as. Hospital grade receptacles. versus. Residential . Don’t make a production out of something so simple. I’ve been An electrician for 35 years ans have worked on nearly everything none to man. Although some people ,, all people should hire qualified people to work on things, The reason I don’t do plumbing or mechanic work.
I'm very happy to see we have additional expertise available here in the forums. Very useful to help folks out. given your experience and expertise, I'm hoping you can help me out with some questions I've had for awhile.
When working to ABYS A28 - Galvanic Isolators, there are 5 tests required listed out in appendices 1 through 5:
My questions are in 2 parts:
1) if you didn't really have the equipment to do all the above tests, what tests do you think you'd skip, if you feel you could skip any, and why do you feel you could skip that test if in fact you feel you could skip one of these tests?
2) To perform the above tests, there are several pieces of electrical equipment that needed, a 120V AC power supply,
a resistive load bank,
Variable DC power supply,
a 60Hz variable AC power supply, a digital temperature computerized logger, oscilloscope, volt meter and ammeter along with some things like shunts and other electrical things. My question here is what requirements do you think is needed for the three underlined items in that list. I think I probably have the variable DC power supply covered, but I'm not sure. And I have no idea what I need for the 60 Hz variable AC power supply nor the resistive load bank.
Any insight you can give me on the above would be greatly appreciated.
