High Current Output Connections

NOTE

This information only applies to power modules with output current ratings of 50 A.

CAUTION

Do not connect the front panel cable assembly to the high current output

power modules.

Because the front panel binding posts have a maximum current rating of 20 A,

they are not available for use with the above models.

High current (50 A) load connections are made using the rear panel

access ports of the Agilent N6705B. These access ports have a thin

rubber membrane which can be pierced using the load wires.

User-supplied load and sense wires must be used to connect to the

output and sense connector plugs on the high current power module.

Step 1. Route the load wires through the rear panel.

Push the high current load wires through the rear panel access port.

If you are using remote sensing, route the sense wires though the

second access port. Twist each wire pair.

Step 2. Connect the wires to the power module.

Connect the load wires to the output connector of the power module

as shown. Connect the sense wires to the sense connector.

Step 3. Finish the Installation.

Place any unused cable harnesses in the clip ring located between the

power modules and the front panel. Install the top and bottom

covers. Push the covers into place and tighten the thumbscrews.
