Provides revelse-voltage test of individual sections of rectifier stackat 1000 VDC，With test leads E1 and E2 clippedacross diode section under test,Variac setting is increased from 0 until C1 is charged to 1000 V as indicated by voltmeter. If diode or capacitor in section under test is defective, meter will read Iow because of extra voltage loss across R1 Initial setup is made with good diode section, Open S1 before changing diode because voltage is lethal.-R.
