8-1. Connections
It is recommendable that the EMC test with using this product should be conducted with test
environment in accordance with the installation and operation condition of the EUT, such as a
ground plane, a test table, an insulation pallet, and insulation blocks. The test environment to
recommend and the main items of it are appeared below. The inside of [] is a accessory cord of
Noiseken products.
•Test table [03-00039A]：It is used when EUT is a desktop type.
•Ground plane [03-00007A]：When EUT is a desktop type, it covers on a test table. When EUT
is a floor-top type, it covers on the floor of a test room.
•Insulation pallet [03-00024A]：It is used when EUT is a floor-top type.
•Ground cable：A braided wire which has more than AWG12 size (≒3.5 mm² ) is recommended.
•Insulation block [03-00029A]：The signal cable of EUT should be floated from the ground plane.
For safe Capacitive coupling test, read carefully the instruction manual of your Impulse noise
simulator as well as this instruction manual beforehand.
①Connect the ground plane to the earth terminal of the test room with using an appropriate cable
to ground it.
②Put the impulse noise tester, the CA-805B body, and EUT properly on the ground plane. In case
EUT is floor-top type, put the insulation pallet first and put EUT on the insulation pallet.
③Connect the Input connector of CA-805B main unit to the PULSE OUT connector of Impulse
Noise Simulator (Models: INS series) with the attached coaxial cable.
The standard accessories are for the tests with INS-4300 series, INS-400L, INS-4001,
INS-4020/4040, INS-AX series, and INS-AX2 series and so on, which have our original
high-voltage coaxial connectors. When the CA-805B is used with INS-400 series simulators, the
following optional coaxial cables are required.

④Connect the other connector of the main unit to the 50Ωterminator input connector of the
simulator with the other attached cable. Unless the terminator is connected, a proper test cannot
be conducted. In case of INS-410, INS-420, and INS-4300, connect it to the separated terminator
which was supplied as the accessory of the simulator.
CAUTION
Since the type of the coaxial connector is different, do not connect other types of
cables (e.g. “pulse width setup cable” of INS-400 series) to this product.
For details, refer to“8-2. Avoiding misuse of HV coaxial connector”.
⑤Undo the buckle and put the cable to be tested through the CA-805B body. Care should be taken
to position the cable with a minimum variation in distance to the surface of the internal conductor
tube.
※
In case of a multi-line cable, be careful of twists.
When the cable has been arranged adequately, close the CA-805B and fasten the buckle.
※The coupling factor is maximized when the cable to be tested touches the internal
conductor tube of CA-805B. Suppose the coupling factor as 100% with this position, it is
83% at the center of the tube, 86% at the midpoint between the center and the inside
surface, but the actual coupling factor defers from the theoretical value depending on
the outside diameter of the cable, the thickness of covering material, the bending way,
or any other factors.
⑥Make all cables including the cable to be tested floated 10cm from a ground plane with putting
them on the insulation blocks.
⑦Connect the SG terminal of the CA-805B main part to the ground plane with appropriate wires.
Whether each FG (frame ground) of EUT is connected to a ground plane or not should follow
each product specification.
⑧When connection is completed, turn on EUT, and inject pulses into the cable to be tested from
the impulse noise simulator. Although the CA-805B does not have the structural direction, since
test results may vary by replacing the pulse input terminal, test in both directions is
recommendable.
In case of using this product with INS-400 series (e.g. INS-410，INS-420, etc.), the following
optional cable is necessary instead of the coaxial cable of the accessory of this product.
MODEL 02-00003A 【MHV(P)～NMHV(P) 1.5m】
MODEL 02-00007A 【NMHV(P)～MHV(PJ) 0.2m】
Connect “PULSE OUT” of the INS-400 series simulator to the coaxial connector of the
CA-805B with 02-00003A. Connect the other coaxial connector to the separated
“terminator” of the accessory of the INS via “T-type branch connector”, which is also the
accessory of the INS, with 02-00007A.

8-2. Avoiding misuse of HV coaxial connector
The high voltage coaxial connector “NMHV” which is used for this product is exclusively
used for Noiseken’s products. When another connector which type and specifications
are different is used even if its appearance looks like this connector, an electric shock or
damage of this product might happen. Use the attached accessories and optional
products produced by Noiseken so that the test can be conducted safely and securely.
Noise Laboratory has been renewing the type of coaxial connectors in accordance with making
output pulse voltage of Impulse Noise Simulators higher.
The high voltage coaxial connector “NMHV” used for this product (CA-805B) is the exclusive –use
connector for Noiseken’s products which was developed for using for impulse noise simulators which
output pulse voltage exceeds 3kV. Some EMC test equipment manufactured other companies than
us adopt coaxial connectors which are very similar to the NMHV connector, but if such a kind of
other connector is connected to an NMHV connector mistakenly, an foreseen electric shock accident
or malfunction of this product caused by an unexpected discharge on connection part might happen
because sticking-out length of a center contact (a core line) and length of insulation body of such
kinds of connectors are different from those of the NMHV connectors even though their appearance
resembles closely.
To prevent such misuse as the above, the carved seal “NMHV-P-55U” which shows a pattern-type is
put on the lock (rotor) part of the NMHV connector. If the similar type is mixed in, be sure to use
Noiseken’s attached or optional products with confirming this carved seal. And, before developing
the NMHV, Noise Laboratory adopted the coaxial connector of “MHV” for the INS-400 series (output
pulse voltage 2kV type). The MHV connectors cannot be used with connecting to this product
directly from the same reason as the above similar connectors’ case.
Distinguishing the MHV from the NMHV is easy because an appearance is greatly different in the
MHV and the NMHV. In case of using this product with INS-400 series, be sure to connect them with
using the conversion cable designated by Noise Laboratory.
