1. Resistors must have a voltage coefficient consistent with the test voltage used.
2. Can use (3) each, 0.033 μF, 2 kV capacitors in series and (8) each, 8 μF, 450 V capacitors in series to obtain required
values. The 0.033 μF capacitors should have a 33 MΩ bleeder resistor across each capacitor. The 8 μF capacitors
should have a 15 MΩ bleeder resistor across each capacitor.

Performance Test Procedures
Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury, do
not contact the output terminals while performing the following
procedures. There are potentially dangerous voltages at the
output terminals when the product is in the MΩ TEST function.
The following performance tests should be completed yearly to ensure that the product,
referred to as “the UUT” (Unit Under Test) in this section of the manual, is in proper
operating condition and meets the published accuracy specifications. If the UUT fails any
of the performance test steps, repair or adjustment is needed. Refer to How to Contact
Fluke for service information.
IR Port Verification Test
To verify operation of the IR Communications Port:
1. Using a Windows PC, connect the IR adapter cable from the product IR port to the
computer COM port.
2. Activate the Snorre program from the Windows Start menu.
3. Select Diagnostic.
4. Select Identification(ID). The PC sends out an ID command and the product
responds to it.
