Was reviewing a number of power supply specifications and would like
to parallel a couple, but the leakage/touch current on them is in the 2 mA
range. Isn't most of the leakage current produced (produced might not be the
word I want) in the upfront filter caps - W and Y capacitors and such? If I
parallel these aren't I likely to see a significant increase in the leakage
current, and probably blow by the 3.5 mm requirement for ITE?
Would the measurement be made twice, once for each supply or would I
have to provide a common input to both supplies and then measure between
chassis and this common point's protective earth terminal?
