2. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

2.1. GENERAL GUIDELINES
1. When servicing, observe the original lead dress. If a short circuit is
found, replace all parts which have been overheated or damaged
by the short circuit.
2. After servicing, make the following leakage current checks to
prevent the customer from being exposed to shock properly
installed.
3. After servicing, make the following leakage current checks to
prevent the customer from being exposed to shock hazards.
2.2. LEAKAGE CURRENT COLD CHECK
1. Unplug the AC cord and connect a jumper between the two prongs
on the plug.
2. Measure the resistance value, with an ohmmeter, between the
jumpered AC plug and each exposed metallic cabinet part on the
equipment such as screwheads, connectors, control shafts, etc.
When the exposed metallic part has a return path to the chassis,
the reading should be between 1M and 5.2M .When the
exposed metal does not have a return path to the chassis, the
reading must be infinity.
Figure 1
2.3. LEAKAGE CURRENT HOT CHECK (See Figure 1.)
1. Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet. Do not use an isolation
transformer for this check.
2. Connect a 1.5k ,10 W resistor, in parallel with a 0.15 capacitor,
between each exposed metallic part on the set and a good earth
ground such as a water pipe, as shown in Figure 1.
3. Use an AC voltmeter, with 1000 ohms/volt or more sensitivity, to
measure the potential across the resistor.
4. Check each exposed metallic part, and measure the voltage at
2

each point.
5. Reverse the AC plug in the AC outlet and repeat each of the above
measurements.
6. The potential at any point should not exceed 0.75 volts RMS. A
leakage current tester (Simpson Model 229 equivalent) may be
used to make the hot checks, leakage current must not exceed 1/2
milliamp. In case a measurement is outside of the limits specified,
there is a possibility of a shock hazard, and the equipment should
be repaired and rechecked before it is returned to the customer.
2.4. ELECTROSTATICALLY SENSITIVE (ES) DEVICES
Some semiconductor (solid state) devicescan be damaged easily by static electricity. Such
componentscommonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examplesof typical ES
devicesare integrated circuitsand some field-effect transistorsand semiconductor “chip ”
components. The following techniquesshould be used to help reduce the incidence of
component damage caused by static electricity.
1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or
semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any electrostatic
charge on your body by touching a known earth ground.
Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available
discharging wrist strap device, which should be removed for
potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under
test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES devices,
place the assembly on a conductive surface such as alminum foil,
to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or exposure of the
assembly.
3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ES
devices.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device classified as “anti-
static ”can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES
devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate
electrical charges sufficient to damage ES devices.
6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective
package until immediately before you are ready to install it. (most
replacement ES devices are packaged with leads electrically
3

shorted together by conductive foam, alminum foil or comparable
conductive material).
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the
leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective material to
the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be
installed. CAUTION:Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or
circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement
ES devices. (Otherwise hamless motion such as the brushing
together of your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a
carpeted floor can generate static electricity sufficient to damage
an ES device).
2.5. X-RADIATION
WARNING
1. The potential source of X-Radiation in EVF sets is the High Voltage
section and the picture tube.
2. When using a picture tube test jig for service, ensure that jig is
capable of handling 10kV without causing X-Radiation.
Note:
It is important to use an accurate periodically calibrated high
voltage meter.
3. Measure the High Voltage. The meter (electric type) reading
should indicate 2.5kV, ±0.15kV. If the meter indication is out of
tolerance, immediate service and correction is required to prevent
the possibility of premature component failure. To prevent an X-
Radiation possibility, it is essential to use the specified picture
tube.
