Resistance Meter (Zero Adjust)
Correction code 16300100 0.01 NOTE: Unless otherwise explicitly stated in the procedure, the above correction code and FRT reflect all of the work required to perform this procedure, including the linked procedures. Do not stack correction codes unless explicitly told to do so. NOTE: See Flat Rate Times to learn more about FRTs and how they are created. To provide feedback on FRT values, email LaborTimeFeedback@tesla.com. NOTE: See Personal Protection to make sure proper PPE is worn when performing the below procedure.
- 1076927-00-A Hioki RM 3548 (includes alligator clip leads L2107)
- 1076928-00-A Test Probes - Hioki 9461
- 1080510-00-A Resistance Block
These procedures supplement installation tasks that require measurement of HV electrical component and busbar resistances.
- Zero Adjust With Alligator Clip Leads - The most commonly used method of zero adjust.
- Zero Adjust With Resistance Block - This method requires the resistance block special tool.
Zero Adjust With Alligator Clip Leads
- Power on the Hioki resistance meter, and allow a few minutes for it to thermally stabilize.
-
Plug the alligator clip leads into the
resistance meter.
NoteBoth the positive (red) and negative (black) lead connectors have arrows or marks that align to arrows on the resistance meter.
- Use the up arrow and down arrow buttons to set the resistance meter to the 3mΩ range.
- Attach the alligator clips together so that the red clip "bites" the upper jaw of the black clip, and that the "V" on each clip is up.
-
Verify that a resistance is
displayed.
NoteIf " -.- - - - " (no value) is displayed, check the lead connections to the resistance meter and the how the clips attach together.
-
Press and hold the 0ADJ button to
start the zero adjust operation.
NoteThe text "0 ADJ" blinks in the upper right corner of the resistance meter's display.
-
Approximately 2 seconds later, the
resistance meter beeps and "0 ADJ" is now constant.
NoteIf " FAiL " is displayed, check the clips, the leads, and the connection to the resistance meter, and repeat from step 3.
-
Detach the clips from each other and
unplug the leads from the resistance meter.
CAUTIONDo not change the range, otherwise the resistance meter must be zero adjusted again.
-
Plug the Hioki 9461 test probe leads
into
the resistance meter.
NoteAlign the arrows of the lead connectors to the arrows on the resistance meter.
- The resistance meter is now ready to measure resistance. Return to the procedure that required the zero adjust to be performed.
Zero Adjust With Resistance Block
- Power on the Hioki resistance meter, and allow a few minutes for it to thermally stabilize.
-
Plug the Hioki 9461 test probe leads
into the resistance meter.
NoteBoth the positive (red) and negative (black) lead connectors have arrows or marks that align to arrows on the resistance meter.
- Use the up arrow and down arrow buttons to set the resistance meter to the 3mΩ range.
-
Press and release the 0ADJ button to
start the zero adjust operation.
NoteThe text "0 ADJ" blinks in the upper right corner of the resistance meter's display.
- Touch the probes to the indentations on either side of the resistance block special tool, and hold the probes vertically.
-
Verify that a resistance is
displayed.
NoteIf " -.- - - - " (no value) is displayed, check the lead connections to the resistance meter and the how the probe tips contact the resistance block.
-
Approximately 2 seconds later, the
resistance meter beeps and "0 ADJ" is now constant.
NoteIf "FAiL" is displayed, check the probe tips, the leads, and the connection to the resistance meter, and repeat from step 3.
-
Remove the probes from the resistance
block special tool.
CAUTIONDo not change the range, otherwise the resistance meter must be zero adjusted again.
- The resistance meter is now ready to measure resistance. Return to the procedure that required the zero adjust to be performed.
