Check the entire board surface for solder splashes and bridges. 2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are “pinched” or contact high-wattage resistors. 3. Check that all control knobs, shields, covers, ground straps, and mounting hardware have been replaced. Be absolutely certain that you Ihave replaced all the insulators 4. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, pat ticularly transistors, that were installed during 2 previous repair. Point them out to the customer and recommend their replacement. 5. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their replace- ment. 6. Check the line cord for cracks and abrasion, Recommend the replacement of any such line cord to the customer. 7. Check the condition of the monopole antenna (any) Make sure the end is not broken off, and has the plastic ap on it. Point out the danger of Impalement on a broken antenna to the customer, and recommend the antenna’ replacement. 8, Check the Bt and HV to see they are at the values specified, Make sure your instruments are accurate; be suspicious of your HV meter If sets always have low HV. 9. Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” Knobs, screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage as described below. LEAKAGE TEST ‘The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and from all exposed metal parts to any. exposed metal part having a return to chassis, must not exceed 0.SmA (500 microampers). Leakage ‘current can be measured by any one of three methods. 1. A. commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA WT-S40A. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions to use these instru- ments. 2. Abattery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 24S digital multimeter is suitable for this ob. 3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of 2 VOM of battery-operated AC volt- meter. The “limit” indication is 0.75, so analog meters must have an accurate low- voltage seale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd-are examples of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated digital ‘multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable, (See Fig. A) HOW TO FIND A GOOD EARTH GROUND ‘A cold-water pipe is guaranteed earth ground; the cover-plate retaining screw on most AC outlet boxes is ‘also at earth ground. If the retaining screw is to be ‘used as your earth-ground, verify that itis at ground by measuring the resistance between it and a cold- ‘water pipe with an ohmmeter. The reading should be zero ohms. If a cold-water pipe is not accessible, connect a 60-100 watts trouble light (not a neon lamp) between the hot side of the receptacle and the retaining serew. Try both slots, if necessary, to locate the hot side of the line, the lamp should light at ‘normal brilliance if the screw is at ground potential (See Fig. B) To Exposed Metal Parson Set Trouble Light Y Onmmeter AC Outlet Box ac ee o on5ur 15ks. eayr a Coldwater Pipe + Earth Ground \Fia.
