Series Operation Series operation of two or more power supplies can be accomplished up to the output isolation rating of any one sup- ply to obtain a higher voltage than that available from a single supply. Series connected supplies can be operated with one load across both supplies or with a separate load for each supply. The power supply has a reverse polarity diode con- nected across the output terminals so that if operated in series with othe

Output Current Measurement. For accurate output current Variable Tracking Ratio measurements, a current sampling resistor should be inserted e. Leave the ±20V VOLTAGE control set as in step (d), and between the load and the output of the supply. To simplify use a DVM to monitor the voltage of the -20V supply grounding problems, one end of this sampling resistor should be while adjusting the TRACKING RATIO control over its connected to the same output terminal of the supply which will VARIABLE
